The quantum-classical coexistence can be implemented based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), but due to Raman noise, the wavelength spacing between quantum and classical signals and launch power from classical channels are restricted. Space division multiplexing (SDM) can now be availably achieved by multicore fiber (MCF) to reduce Raman noise, thereby loosening the restriction for coexistence in the same band and obtaining a high communication capacity. In this paper, we realize the quantum-classical coexistence over a 7-core MCF. Based on the SDM, the highest launch power of 25 dBm is achieved which has been extended nearly 19 times in previous work. Moreover, both the quantum and classical channels are allocated in the C-band and the minimum wavelength spacing between them is only 1.6 nm. The coexistence system eliminates the need for adding a narrowband filter.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease with a poor prognosis and lack of effective treatment. In this study, TNBCs were analyzed from the perspective of tumor stemness based on scRNA-seq data. The analysis showed that tumor cells of TNBC were divided into 4 subtypes, with subtype 2 having the highest stemness score.

This report highlights a science outreach effort for prisons launched by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in collaboration with the NGO Solidarios para el Desarrollo. The Microbiology-focused part of the initiative aims at educating inmates on some basic facts, in order to raise awareness about microorganisms and their impact on daily life. The outline of the talks, inspired by the International Initiative for Microbial Literacy, aims to encourage this collective to move from passive listeners into active participants, helping them understand that Earth is a microbial planet, and that their bodies harbour vast microbiomes that affect their health and social interactions.

CubeSats have emerged as a promising alternative to satellite missions for studying remote areas where satellite data are scarce and insufficient, such as coastal and marine environments. However, their standard size and weight limitations make integrating remote sensing optical instruments challenging. This work presents the development of Bentayga-I, a CubeSat designed to validate PANDORA, a self-made, lightweight, cost-effective multispectral camera with interchangeable spectral optical filters, in near-space conditions.

The advent of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy has launched a rapidly growing field in chemical imaging with broad impact. Although the physical picture seems to be well understood from classical models, prediction of absolute SRS signals remains a challenge. Here, we present a quantum electrodynamics treatment of the newly introduced stimulated Raman cross section.

The high-strain rate mechanical behavior of aluminum alloys is crucial for the stability of electromagnetic launch systems. However, current high-strain rate testing methods are not suitable for large-scale screening of materials needed in electromagnetic launch systems due to their low precision and high cost. In this paper, a novel method for high-strain rate tensile testing of aluminum alloys based on magnetic pulse driving was proposed.
