Limits of slow-light in photonic crystals [PDF]
While ideal photonic crystals would support modes with a vanishing group velocity, state-of-the art structures have still only provided a slow-down by roughly two orders of magnitude.

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Slow-light pulses in moving media
Slow light in moving media reaches a paradoxical regime when the flow speed of the medium approaches the group velocity of light. Pulses can penetrate a region where a counter-propagating flow exceeds the group velocity.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Understanding of Earth's subsurface is crucial for mitigating geological hazards, particularly earthquakes. A key parameter for subsurface characterization is the surface wave dispersion curve, which strongly reflects shear wave velocity (Vs) at various ...

Comment on ‘Evidence of slow-light effects from rotary drag of structured beams’
The paper Wisniewski-Barker E et al (2013 New J. Phys. 15 083020) is intended to distinguish experimentally between two mechanisms of pulse delay in ruby and to provide evidence in favor of the slow-light model.

Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Laser induced Zero-Group Velocity resonances in Transversely Isotropic cylinder
The transient response of an elastic cylinder to a laser impact is studied. When the laser source is a line perpendicular to the cylinder axis, modes guided along the cylinder are generated.
