Published: August 2021

We study the critical energy dissipation in an atomic superfluid gas with two symmetric spin components by an oscillating magnetic obstacle. Above a certain critical oscillation frequency, spin-wave excitations are generated by the magnetic obstacle, demonstrating the spin superfluid behavior of the system. When the obstacle is strong enough to cause density perturbations via local saturation of spin polarization, half-quantum vortices (HQVs) are created for higher oscillation frequencies, which reveals the characteristic evolution of critical dissipative dynamics from spin-wave emission to HQV shedding. Critical HQV shedding is further investigated using a pulsed linear motion of the obstacle, and we identify two critical velocities to create HQVs with different core magnetization.

Lignin, the most abundant natural aromatic polymer, holds considerable promise for applications in various industries. The primary obstacle to the valorization of lignin into useful materials is its low molecular weight and diminished chemical reactivity, attributable to its intricate structure. This study aimed to treat lignocellulosic biomass using a switchable solvent (DBU-HexOH/HO) derived from the non-nucleophilic superbase 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.

Gliomas are a wide group of common brain tumors, with the most aggressive type being glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5% and a median survival time of approximately 12-14 months. The standard treatment of GBM includes surgical excision, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ). However, tumor recurrence and progression are common.

Multiple drug resistance (MDR) remains a major obstacle in effective breast cancer chemotherapy. This study explores the role of HSP90AA1 in driving MDR and evaluates the potential of magnetic nanoparticles (FeO@SA) loaded with salicylic acid (SA) to counteract drug resistance. A comprehensive screening of 200 SA-related target genes identified nine core genes, including HSP90AA1.

Article Synopsis
  • The extraction of a submandibular-displaced mandibular third molar root is challenging for surgeons due to its closeness to important structures like the lingual nerve and sublingual artery.
  • Preoperative imaging helps locate the root, but real-time synchronization is tough because of the mandible's moving nature.
  • This study highlights the successful extraction of a residual root using a magnetic navigation system, resulting in a minimally invasive procedure with no complications or major issues reported postoperatively.
