Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) have been advantageously used to improve the chaotic properties of semiconductor lasers. Though these components are known to be highly sensitive to environmental conditions, feedback phase fluctuations are often neglected. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate that the small variations of the propagation time induced by a simple thermal tuning of the FBG are sufficient to induce significant changes of the laser behavior. We report periodic stability enhancements linked with phase variations and highlight that both phase variation and phase offsets play an important role. Last, we show a good qualitative agreement with simulations based on an expanded version of the Lang-Kobayashi model.

Factors That Influence Young Adults' Preferences for Virtual Reality Exergames in a Weight Control Setting: Qualitative Study.

Background: Obesity could compromise people's health and elevate the risk of numerous severe chronic conditions and premature mortality. Young adults are at high risk of adopting unhealthy lifestyles related to overweight and obesity, as they are at a phase marked by several significant life milestones that have been linked to weight gain. They gain weight rapidly and excess adiposity mostly accrues, compared with middle-aged and older adults when weight stabilizes or even decreases.

Article Synopsis
- Many experimental setups in quantum science rely on laser fields for controlling states, but this control can suffer from issues related to optical phase noise.
- Researchers introduced an optical feedforward technique to minimize laser phase noise during the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage for transferring ultracold RbCs molecules.
- After conducting over 100 transfers on individual molecules, they achieved a notable transfer efficiency of 98.7(1)%, which is primarily constrained by the intensity of the lasers used.
Implementation Strategies and Ergonomic Factors in Robot-assisted Microsurgery.

Robot-assisted surgery represents a significant innovation in reconstructive microsurgery, providing enhanced precision and reduced surgeon fatigue. This study examines the integration of robotic assistance in a series of 85 consecutive robot-assisted microsurgical (RAMS) operations. It aims to evaluate changes in the integration of RAMS during the implementation phase in a single institution.

Background: Alterations to spatial navigation have been suggested by previous studies to represent an early cognitive marker for those with and at risk of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). However, with most of these studies focusing on spatial memory (usage of formed spatial representations), very little is known about the extent to which spatial exploration (process by which spatial representations are formed) may be altered in AD. The aim of this study is to investigate how spatial exploration behavior may be altered in individuals with and at risk of AD, and the extent to which individuals can be classified into their clinical status based on their exploration behavior.

Background: Nutrition and other lifestyle interventions hold promise for reducing dementia risk; however, significant barriers remain in translating these programs and recommendations to individuals at the greatest risk. We discuss application of the NIH Obesity-Related Behavioral Intervention Trials (ORBIT) to the development and tailoring of a nutrition program for high-risk older adults.
Method: A mixed methods approach was used to evaluate factors that contribute to adherence and engagement with the nutrition program.
