Ultrafast hot carrier transfer in WS2/graphene large area heterostructures

open access: yesnpj 2D Materials and Applications, 2022
Charge transfer processes in two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures enable upconversion of low energy photons and efficient charge carriers extraction.

Quantum simulation of classical thermal states

open access: yes, 2011
We establish a connection between ground states of local quantum Hamiltonians and thermal states of classical spin systems. For any discrete classical statistical mechanical model in any spatial dimension, we find an associated quantum state such that ...

Aromatic Plants in Eurasian Blue Tit Nests: The ‘Nest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The ‘Nest Protection Hypothesis’ suggests that some birds add aromatic plants to their nests to repel or kill ectoparasites. This behavior has been described for several species, including the Eurasian Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus).

Nested T-Duality [PDF]

open access: yesLetters in Mathematical Physics, 2006
We identify the obstructions for T-dualizing the boundary WZW model and make explicit how they depend on the geometry of branes. In particular, the obstructions disappear for certain brane configurations associated to non-regular elements of the Cartan torus.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

A Non-Commuting Stabilizer Formalism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We propose a non-commutative extension of the Pauli stabilizer formalism. The aim is to describe a class of many-body quantum states which is richer than the standard Pauli stabilizer states.

Nested Basin-Sampling

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 2019
We report an embarrassingly parallel method for the evaluation of thermodynaproperties over an energy landscape exhibiting broken ergodicity, nested basin-samp(NBS). We also introduce the No Galilean U-Turn Sampler (NoGUTS), a new sapling scheme based on the No U-Turn Sampler (NUTS) introduced by Hoffman Gelman (2014) that works with the Galilean Monte

Cutaneous Melanoma Drives Metabolic Changes in the Aged Bone Marrow Immune Microenvironment

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, increasingly affects older adults. Our study reveals that melanoma induces changes in iron and lipid levels in the bone marrow, impacting immune cell populations and increasing susceptibility to ferroptosis.

The power of a critical heat engine

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The second law of thermodynamics says that the efficiency of a heat engine is limited by the Carnot efficiency. Here, the authors use finite-size-scaling theory to investigate whether this ultimate limit can be achieved at finite power using quantum Otto
