Suitability of slightly saline irrigation for alleviating drought stress in taro and yam in Tonga: Implications for climate‐resilient Pacific cropping systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
There is an increasing risk of drought and salinisation of soil and groundwater globally, including in Pacific Island countries such as Tonga. Irrigating crops with slightly saline water, such as that produced by emerging desalination technologies, could help to alleviate droughts.

Application of quantum-statistical methods to studies of thermodynamic and radiative processes in hot dense plasmas

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes, 2019
Calculations of thermodynamic and radiative characteristics of hot dense plasmas within different quantum-statistical approaches, such as the use of the Hartree–Fock–Slater model and the ion model, are presented.

Water Drops Sliding Over Arrays of Janus Micropillars With Hydrophilic Tops: A New Mechanism of Drop Charging

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A water drop slides over a distance of a few centimeters across arrays whose top surfaces exhibit a contact angle below 10°. The arrays are fabricated with hydrophilic tops and hydrophobic sidewalls and substrate, forming Janus structures. As the drop moves, it generates a spontaneous electric charge and leaves behind tiny satellite droplets that ...

High‐Resolution Microlens‐Assisted Tunable n‐Type Optical Doping in Monolayer MoS2

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The laser‐assisted microlens array processing (LAMP) technique enables sub‐diffraction, localized n‐type optical doping of monolayer MoS2 by utilizing self‐assembled microspheres as microlenses. Controlled sulfur vacancy formation under low‐power laser irradiation allows precise tuning of the carrier concentration.

Type‐2‐Inflammatory‐Diseases Share Comorbidities, Molecular Signatures, IL4/IL13 Genetics, and Response to IL4/IL13 Blockade

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Studies suggest that type 2 inflammatory diseases are driven by overactivation of the IL4/IL13 pathway, manifesting differently in distinct tissues. We performed quantitative analyses using several large independent datasets to explore the interrelation of type 2 inflammatory diseases based on co‐prevalence, genetic predispositions, and transcriptomic ...

Time-resolved measurement of neutron energy isotropy in a sheared-flow-stabilized Z pinch

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Previous measurements of neutron energy using fast plastic scintillators while operating the Fusion Z Pinch Experiment (FuZE) constrained the energy of any yield-producing deuteron beams to less than 4.65 keV. FuZE has since been operated at increasingly
