Loss Analysis and Tolerancing of Coatings for High-Performance Laser Applications [PDF]
High-performance optical systems for laser fusion, satellite communication terminals, or gravitational wave interferometry require optical coatings with total losses in the few parts-per-million (ppm) range.

Influence of bandwidth error on the performance of adaptive optics systems for uncooperative beacons
S.F118-F125We discuss the capability of adaptive optics to increase the performance of laser systems operating in atmospheric turbulence. Our approach is based on the Zernike filter functions, Taylor's frozen-flow hypothesis, and bandwidth limitations of

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Surface characterization in fabrication environments using angle resolved light scattering: From roughness and defect analysis to in-situ coating inspection [PDF]
The performance of an optical component or surface might quicky be limited by light scattering induced by the surface and coating roughness, as well as imperfections and contaminations. On the other hand, the scattered light contains valuable information

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
