The stability of an air-maintained cavity behind a stationary object in flowing water [PDF]
In studies made in the Free Surface Water Tunnel of a projectile running in an air-maintained cavity, the experimental relation between air entrainment rate and cavitation number was determined.

Synthesis and superconductivity in yttrium-cerium hydrides at high pressures
Further increasing the critical temperature and/or decreasing the stabilized pressure are the general hopes for the hydride superconductors. Inspired by the low stabilized pressure associated with Ce 4f electrons in superconducting cerium superhydride ...

One of my life’s most poignant moments came during my first lesson at the potter’s wheel. I’ll never forget how my teacher laid his hands over mine and helped direct the pressure needed to guide the clay into center.

Nonlinear Variation of Light-Pressure-Induced Multilevel Atomic Line Shifts with Vapor Pressure in Helium Spectroscopy [PDF]
This paper has been temporarily withdrawn. Highly nonlinear dependences of 4He 2^3S - 2^3P lines on pressure were observed in vapor cell saturation spectroscopy. Line shifts agree with those expected from light-pressure-induced perturbation of atomic velocity distribution. In the lin-perp-lin pump and probe polarization configuration, multilevel atomic

Diffusion-driven transient hydrogenation in metal superhydrides at extreme conditions
In recent years, metal hydride research has become one of the driving forces of the high-pressure community, as it is believed to hold the key to superconductivity close to ambient temperature.

A Study of Panel Loads and Centers of Pressure of Three Different Cruciform Aft-Tail Control Surfaces of a Wingless Missile from Mach 1.60 to 3.70 [PDF]
An investigation was made of the forces and moments on the cruciform aft-tail control surfaces of a wingless missile model to determine the variation of panel load and center of pressure with angle of attack, tail deflection, model roll angle, and Mach ...

Sulfur chains glass formed by fast compression
Due to the sulfur’s atoms’ propensity to form molecules and/or polymeric chains of various sizes and configuration, elemental sulfur possesses more allotropes and polymorphs than any other element at ambient conditions.

Optically Coherent Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in HPHT Treated Diamonds [PDF]
As a point defect with unique spin and optical properties, nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has attracted much attention in the fields of quantum sensing, quantum simulation, and quantum networks. The optical properties of an NV center are crucial for all these quantum applications.
