Lung cancer ranks among the three most prevalent cancers worldwide. Polarization imaging technology can effectively distinguish between cancerous and normal tissues. The most commonly applied method for cancer detection is the dual-rotating wave plate polarization imaging system (DWRPIS), which is cumbersome and prone to significant error due to 60 mechanical rotations. To address this, our experiment leveraged the stability of the Liquid Crystal Variable Retarder (LCVR) and, based on existing theoretical foundations for simplifying the use of LCVRs, designed a symmetric single-LCVR polarization imaging system (SSLPIS) for the first time to detect lung cancer images. The SSLPIS is easy to operate, completing the entire acquisition process in just 150 s, with effective Mueller matrix imaging and an overall accuracy rate of over 90%, offering a faster and more precise detection method. This new approach provides an innovative pathway for the rapid detection of lung cancer.

Ion encapsulation by solvent molecules significantly impacts ion transport and the adsorption mechanism in energy storage devices. The aim of this investigation is to analyse the adsorption mechanisms associated with the solvation shell of lithium ions near the electrode/electrolyte interface during the charging process. Simulations using molecular dynamics (MD) are conducted for LiPF salt in PC solvent confined in between two flat carbon electrodes.

Significance: We introduce a visible-light polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) system that operates in the spectral domain with balanced detection (BD) capability. While the BD improves the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the use of shorter wavelengths improves spatial resolution and birefringence sensitivity.

Aim: We aim to implement a new optical design, characterize its performance, and investigate the imaging potential for biological tissues.

Upper limit of ice content at the lunar south pole as revealed by the Earth-based SYISR-FAST bistatic radar system.

An increasing amount of evidence indicates that lunar water ice exists in permanently shadowed regions at the poles and will soon become an important resource for lunar exploration. However, the water ice content and distribution are still uncertain. We report a new 70-cm-wavelength radar image of the lunar south pole obtained by an Earth-based bistatic radar system consisting of the Sanya incoherent scatter radar (SYISR) and the five-hundred-meter aperture spherical radio telescope (FAST).

Polarity-guided uneven mitotic divisions control brassinosteroid activity in proliferating plant root cells.

Brassinosteroid hormones are positive regulators of plant organ growth, yet their function in proliferating tissues remains unclear. Here, through integrating single-cell RNA sequencing with long-term live-cell imaging of the Arabidopsis root, we reveal that brassinosteroid activity fluctuates throughout the cell cycle, decreasing during mitotic divisions and increasing during the G1 phase. The post-mitotic recovery of brassinosteroid activity is driven by the intrinsic polarity of the mother cell, resulting in one daughter cell with enhanced brassinosteroid signaling, while the other supports brassinosteroid biosynthesis.

While affective salience effects have been observed consistently in the late positive potential (LPP), no event-related potential (ERP) component has consistently shown ordered valence effects. A recent study, showing images of facial attractiveness, however suggests the existence of valence-related effects at very long latencies (1000-3000 ms post stimulus). This could offer new insights into the time-course of affective neural processing.
