Electrowetting: from basics to applications [PDF]
Electrowetting has become one of the most widely used tools for manipulating tiny amounts of liquids on surfaces. Applications range from 'lab-on-a-chip' devices to adjustable lenses and new kinds of electronic displays. In the present article, we review

Possible safety hazards associated with the operation of the 0.3-m transonic cryogenic tunnel at the NASA Langley Research Center [PDF]
The 0.3 m Transonic Cryogenic Tunnel (TCT) at the NASA Langley Research Center was built in 1973 as a facility intended to be used for no more than 60 hours in order to verify the validity of the cryogenic wind tunnel concept at transonic speeds.

Motion of metallic particle near the conical insulator of UHVAC gas‐insulated transmission line
The UHV gas‐insulated transmission line (GIL) has the advantages of large transmission capacity, high operation reliability, and environmental friendliness. It is suitable for the power transmission of hydropower stations and nuclear power stations and the restricted environmental or geographical conditions.

Non-Abelian spin-orbit gauge: Persistent spin helix and quantum square ring
We re-express the Rashba and Dresselhaus interactions as non-Abelian spin-orbit gauges and provide a new perspective in understanding the persistent spin helix [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 236601 (2006)].
