Unidirectional Maxwellian spin waves
Nanophotonics, 2019 In this article, we develop a unified perspective of unidirectional topological edge waves in nonreciprocal media. We focus on the inherent role of photonic spin in nonreciprocal gyroelectric media, i.e. magnetized metals or magnetized insulators. Due to

Investigation of the Usability of Reduced Alkalinity Red Mud in the Building Material Industry
Resources, 2023 Untreated and pH-reduced red mud is used as a potential raw material in ceramic technology. During the alkalinity reduction process, CO2 is bubbled through the untreated red mud, which is particularly important as it can reduce the CO2 content of the ...

Building a Nest by an Automaton [PDF]
, 2019 A robot modeled as a deterministic finite automaton has to build a structure from material available to it. The robot navigates in the infinite oriented grid Z x Z. Some cells of the grid are full (contain a brick) and others are empty.

Remarks on 't Hooft's Brick Wall Model [PDF]
, 2003 A semi-classical reasoning leads to the non-commutativity of the space and time coordinates near the horizon of Schwarzschild black hole. This non-commutativity in turn provides a mechanism to interpret the brick wall thickness hypothesis in 't Hooft's ...

Losing our Senses, an Exploration of 3D Object Scanning
Open Archaeology, 2018 3D scanning and photogrammetry of archaeological objects are now becoming commonplace. Virtual 3D scans are in many cases replacing the drawn record and are leading to objects being more easily accessed, shared and analysed.
