Towards the identification of new physics through quark flavour violating processes [0.03%]
通过轻子 flavor 违反过程寻找新物理现象

We outline a systematic strategy that should help in this decade to identify new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM) by means of quark flavour violating processes, and thereby extend the picture of short distance physics down to sca...

This article introduces and reviews recent work using a simple optimization technique for analysing the nonlinear stability of a state in a dynamical system. The technique can be used to identify the most efficient way to disturb a system s...

Understanding interactions between light and matter is central to many fields, providing invaluable insights into the nature of matter. In its own right, a greater understanding of light-matter coupling has allowed for the creation of tailo...

It has been over 200 years since people recognized the presence of infrared radiation, and developed methods to capture this signal. However, current material systems and technologies for infrared detections have not met the increasing dema...

The theory of plasma confinement by non-axisymmetric magnetic fields is reviewed. Such fields are used to confine fusion plasmas in stellarators, where in contrast to tokamaks and reversed-field pinches the magnetic field generally does not...
The physics of hearing: fluid mechanics and the active process of the inner ear [0.03%]
听觉的物理机制：内耳流体动力学与主动过程

Most sounds of interest consist of complex, time-dependent admixtures of tones of diverse frequencies and variable amplitudes. To detect and process these signals, the ear employs a highly nonlinear, adaptive, real-time spectral analyzer: t...
The fundamental role of mechanical properties in the progression of cancer disease and inflammation [0.03%]

The role of mechanical properties in cancer disease and inflammation is still underinvestigated and even ignored in many oncological and immunological reviews. In particular, eight classical hallmarks of cancer have been proposed, but they ...

Multiferroics, compounds with both magnetic and ferroelectric orders, are believed to be a key material system to achieve cross-control between magnetism and electricity in a solid with minute energy dissipation. Such a colossal magnetoelec...
Probing the micro-rheological properties of aerosol particles using optical tweezers [0.03%]

The use of optical trapping techniques to manipulate probe particles for performing micro-rheological measurements on a surrounding fluid is well-established. Here, we review recent advances made in the use of optical trapping to probe the ...

In 1952, Overhauser proposed a method for transferring the large electron spin polarization of conduction electrons in a metal to the metal nuclei, enhancing their polarization one thousand fold. Such an enhancement method is called dynamic...
