Managing and visualising geochemical data for tephra correlation with the IntChron Integration Tool
ABSTRACT There is now a wealth of glass‐shard geochemical data for volcanic ash (tephra) layers from a wide range of volcanoes and eruptions, providing invaluable datasets for tephrochronology. However, compilation of published data to assess tephra correlations leads to large files and requires careful management.

We apply a sharp silicon tip, typically used for atomic force microscopy (AFM), as a nanoscale probe, and collect frequency‐shifted photons resulting from Raman scattering within the sharp tip. This approach allows us to map local electromagnetic fields in various plasmonic structures and study field “hotspots” with nanometer spatial resolution ...

Revealing the Resonant Physics of Open Photonic Time Crystals
ABSTRACT Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are media whose permittivity is modulated periodically in time, enabling momentum bandgaps and parametric amplification of light. Their realization at the nanoscale can revolutionize the study of light‐matter interactions.

Chip‐based frequency combs are usually pumped from telecom wavelengths, far from the visible. This work instead pumps close to the visible with a Ti:sapphire laser ‐ the source behind the original optical frequency combs and now becoming chip‐integrable‐ and lets silicon‐nitride waveguides convert it into efficient, octave‐spanning visible‐to‐infrared ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Wavefront Shaping for Optimal Extinction of Focused Light by Individual Nanoscatterers
Wavefront shaping enables near‐complete optical extinction by nanoscatterers separated from a planar reflector. Time‐reversed emission profiles provide optimal illumination conditions, yielding 70% extinction from a single plasmonic nanoparticle and up to 90% from sub‐wavelength nanoparticle clusters, offering a promising route to efficient in‐ and out‐

Ultimate Intrinsic SNR Depends on B0 Orientation
ABSTRACT Purpose This work aims to investigate the effect of B0$$ {B}_0 $$ orientation on the uiSNR in MRI. Methods Electromagnetic simulations were performed on both realistic body models and simplified geometric models. Comparisons between (1) opposite B0$$ {B}_0 $$ directions along the head‐foot (HF) axis, corresponding to head‐first and feet‐first ...

Whole‐Brain Diffusion MRI at 7T With Universal Multiband GRAPE pTx Pulses
Purpose To improve signal strength and homogeneity of whole‐brain diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) at 7T. Methods Universal multiband excitation and refocusing pulses were optimized with the gradient ascent pulse engineering (GRAPE) algorithm across a database of B1+$$ {B}_1^{+} $$ and B0$$ {B}_0 $$ maps obtained from 20 subjects.

Predicting Mesoscopic Larmor Frequency Shifts in Ex Vivo Porcine Optic Nerve
ABSTRACT Purpose Larmor frequency shifts in white matter (WM) vary with fiber orientation due to anisotropic microstructure. Since clinical voxels are significantly larger than these microscopic frequency variations, the measured signal represents a bulk average of local shifts.

ABSTRACT Background For prostate cancer (PCa), early diagnosis and biomarker‐based patient stratification can improve clinical decision‐making and post‐treatment prognosis. PCa biomarkers are best validated in tissue following comprehensive histopathologic review; however, urinary biomarkers can be obtained non‐invasively and are therefore safer and ...
