Anomalous high-harmonic generation (HHG) arises in certain solids when irradiated by an intense laser field, originating from a Berry-curvature-induced perpendicular anomalous current. The observation of pure anomalous harmonics is, however, often prohibited by contamination from harmonics stemming from interband coherences. Here, we fully characterize the anomalous HHG mechanism, via development of an ab initio methodology for strong-field laser-solid interaction that allows a rigorous decomposition of the total current. We identify two unique properties of the anomalous harmonic yields: an overall yield increase with laser wavelength; and pronounced minima at certain laser wavelengths and laser intensities around which the spectral phases drastically change. Such signatures can be exploited to disentangle the anomalous harmonics from competing HHG mechanisms, and thus pave the way for the experimental identification and time-domain control of pure anomalous harmonics, as well as reconstruction of Berry curvatures.

Idlers are essential to conveyor systems, as well as supporting and guiding belts to ensure production efficiency. Proper idler maintenance prevents failures, reduces downtime, cuts costs, and improves reliability. Most studies on idler fault detection rely on supervised methods, which depend on large labelled datasets for training.

The speed of sound in bubbly water is an important parameter in the wave equations governing pressure-density relations for turbulent multi-phase flow simulations. Recent molecular simulation results indicate that, for bubbles that are thermodynamically stable at finite volume conditions, the derivative of total pressure P with density ρ has a negative sign, complicating the interpretation of the speed of sound. We show that such a negative compressibility is thermodynamically consistent in a single-component two-phase model at finite volume, and identify an empirically derived equation of state to illustrate that this observation is not an artifact of small simulation length scales.

Among many iron-based superconductors, isovalently substituted BaFe(AsP) displays, for ≈ 0.3, apart from the quite usual Second Magnetization Peak (SMP) in the field dependence of the critical current density, an unusual peak effect in the temperature dependence of the critical current density in the constant field, which is related to the rhombic-to-square (RST) structural transition of the Bragg vortex glass (BVG). By using multi-harmonic AC susceptibility investigations in three different cooling regimes-field cooling, zero-field cooling, and field cooling with measurements during warming up-we have discovered the existence of a temperature region in which there is a pronounced magnetic memory effect, which we attributed to the direction of the structural transition.

Regimes of topological parametric gain are identified, where the gain only occurs in the edge states of the FH field, regardless of the spatial distribution of the pump SH field. The topological gain of the FH component generally triggers localization of the SH field near an edge of the array in the optical parametric oscillation dynamics.

We demonstrate a hybrid nanocomposite combining mesoporous silica, p , as a host medium and guest lithium niobate nanocrystals embedded into tubular silica nanochannels by calcination of the precursor mixed solution of lithium and niobium salts. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering techniques reveal trigonal nanocrystals within the p nanochannels, indicating their random texture morphology. Annealing at high temperatures ( 950 C) during calcination also leads to partial crystallization of the p matrix with the formation of trigonal - nanocrystals.
