Direct experimental determination of critical disorder in one-dimensional weakly disordered photonic crystals [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. B, 98, 184203 (2018), 2018
We report experimental measurement of critical disorder in weakly disordered, one-dimensional photonic crystals. We measure the configurationally-averaged transmission at various degrees of weak disorder. We extract the density of states (DoS) after fitting the transmission with theoretical profiles, and identify the Lifshitz tail realized by weak ...

Robustness of vortex-bound Majorana zero modes against correlated disorder [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. B 104, 020505 (2021), 2020
We investigate the effect of correlated disorder on Majorana zero modes (MZMs) bound to magnetic vortices in two-dimensional topological superconductors. By starting from a lattice model of interacting fermions with a $p_x \pm i p_y$ superconducting ground state in the disorder-free limit, we use perturbation theory to describe the enhancement of the ...

Primary psychiatric conditions: Dermatitis artefacta, trichotillomania and neurotic excoriations

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2013
Primary psychiatric conditions encountered in dermatology include dermatitis artefacta, trichotillomania (TTM) and neurotic excoriations. For these disorders, the primary pathologic condition involves the psyche; therefore, any cutaneous findings are ...

Does Neuroticism Disrupt the Psychological Benefits of Nostalgia? A Meta‐analytic Test

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Nostalgia, a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, confers self‐oriented, existential, and social benefits. We examined whether nostalgic engagement is less beneficial for individuals who are high in neuroticism (i.e. emotionally unstable and prone to negative affect).

What your Facebook Profile Picture Reveals about your Personality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
People spend considerable effort managing the impressions they give others. Social psychologists have shown that people manage these impressions differently depending upon their personality. Facebook and other social media provide a new forum for this fundamental process; hence, understanding people's behaviour on social media could provide interesting

Effect of disorder geometry on the critical force in disordered elastic systems [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Stat. Mech. P03009 (2014), 2013
We address the effect of disorder geometry on the critical force in disordered elastic systems. We focus on the model system of a long-range elastic line driven in a random landscape. In the collective pinning regime, we compute the critical force perturbatively.

Value priorities and value conflicts in patients with mental disorders compared to a general population sample

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Personal values are considered as guiding principles for humans’ attitudes and behavior, what makes them an essential component of mental health. Although these notions are widely recognized, investigations in clinical samples examining the link between ...

The Potential for Extracellular Vesicles in Nanomedicine: A Review of Recent Advancements and Challenges Ahead

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a dual role in diagnostics and therapeutics, offering innovative solutions for treating cancer, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and orthopedic diseases. This review highlights EVs’ potential to revolutionize personalized medicine through specific applications in disease detection and treatment.

On the Trail of Creativity: Dimensionality of Divergent Thinking and Its Relation With Cognitive Abilities, Personality, and Insight

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Divergent thinking (DT) is an important constituent of creativity that captures aspects of fluency and originality. The literature lacks multivariate studies that report relationships between DT and its aspects with relevant covariates, such as cognitive abilities, personality traits (e.g. openness), and insight. In two multivariate studies (N
