Under continuous-wave laser excitation in a lattice-matched InGaAs/InGaAsP multi-quantum-well (MQW) structure, the carrier temperature extracted from photoluminescence rises faster for 405 nm compared with 980 nm excitation, as the injected carrier density increases. Ensemble Monte Carlo simulation of the carrier dynamics in the MQW system shows that this carrier temperature rise is dominated by nonequilibrium LO phonon effects, with the Pauli exclusion having a significant effect at high carrier densities. Further, we find a significant fraction of carriers reside in the satellite L-valleys for 405 nm excitation due to strong intervalley transfer, leading to a cooler steady-state electron temperature in the central valley compared with the case when intervalley transfer is excluded from the model. Good agreement between experiment and simulation has been shown, and detailed analysis has been presented. This study expands our knowledge of the dynamics of the hot carrier population in semiconductors, which can be applied to further limit energy loss in solar cells.

Article Synopsis
- Reactive arthritis (ReA) is a condition caused by an external infection that leads to joint inflammation without detectable pathogens, indicating a possible ongoing interaction between the host and pathogen remnants.
- The main trigger for classical ReA is bacterial infections, often from urogenital or gastrointestinal sources, with common pathogens including Chlamydia species and enterobacteria.
- Diagnosis relies on clinical symptoms, evidence of prior infection, and ruling out other arthritis types, while treatment focuses on managing inflammation with NSAIDs and other immunomodulators; antibiotics do not typically help reduce the disease duration.

The local density of states (LDOS) for a pair of non-relativistic electrons, influenced by repulsive Coulomb forces, is expressed in term of one-dimensional integrals over Whittaker functions. The computation of the electron pair's LDOS relies on a two-particle Green's function (GF), a generalization of the one-particle GF applicable to a charged particle in an attractive Coulomb potential. By incorporating electron spins and considering the Pauli exclusion principle, the resulting LDOS consists of two components: one originating from an exchange-even two-particle GF and the other from an exchange-odd two-particle GF.

The Stoner instability remains a cornerstone for understanding metallic ferromagnets. This instability captures the interplay of Coulomb repulsion, Pauli exclusion, and twofold fermionic spin degeneracy. In materials with spin-orbit coupling, this fermionic spin is generalized to a twofold degenerate pseudospin which is typically believed to have symmetry properties as spin.

The Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) appears from fundamental symmetries in quantum field theories, but its physical origin is still to be understood. High-precision experimental searches for small PEP violations permit testing key assumptions of the Standard Model with high sensitivity. We report on a dedicated measurement with Gator, a low-background, high-purity germanium detector operated at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, aimed at testing PEP-violating atomic transitions in lead.

Proteins have evolved to function in an aqueous environment. Collagen, which provides the bodily scaffold for animals, has a special need to retain its integrity. This need was addressed early on, as intact collagen has been detected in dinosaur fossils, even though peptide bonds have a half-life of only ∼500 years in a neutral aqueous solution.
