Differences in the effects of turns and constrictions on the resistive response in current-biased superconducting wire after single photon absorption [PDF]
Supercond. Sci. Technol. 26 (2013) 075008, 2013 We study how turns and constrictions affect the resistive response of the superconducting wire after instant in time and local in space heating, which models the absorption of the single photon by the wire. We find that the presence of constriction favors detection of photons of various energies but the presence of turn increases only ability to detect

Twin neural network regression
Applied AI Letters, Volume 3, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 We propose to reformulate a regression problem into predicting differences between target values. This allows for leveraging consistency conditions which can be used as uncertainty estimates and enable the production of an ensemble of predictions while training only a single neural network.

Experimental Validation of Simplified Free Jet Turbulence Models Applied to the Vocal Tract [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 Sound production due to turbulence is widely shown to be an important phenomenon involved in a.o. fricatives, singing, whispering and speech pathologies. In spite of its relevance turbulent flow is not considered in classical physical speech production models mostly dealing with voiced sound production. The current study presents preliminary results of

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a multimodal nonlinear microscopy approach using upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) under continuous‐wave excitation. The UCNPs exhibit high‐order nonlinear optical responses, enabling deep‐tissue 3D imaging, video‐rate wide‐field imaging, and depth‐selective photomodulation.

Biological and Mechanical Limitations for Chronic Fast‐Scan Cyclic Voltammetry Sensor Design
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Real‐time detection of neurochemicals has demonstrated value in the field of neuroscience. However, current methods have limitations for use in the chronic setting, which is often the ideal environment for research. This article discusses these limitations, as well as technologies that have been developed to overcome them, and provides recommendations ...
