ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...

Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Glissile Interphase Boundaries Enable Collective Phase Switching in Epitaxial Polar Oxides
A triple point is identified in the phase diagram of low‐symmetry epitaxial BiFeO3 thin film along with an extended regime of phase competition associated with a flattened energy landscape. The electromechanical response is shown to be governed by correlated interphase‐boundary motion, including scale‐free avalanche dynamics characteristic of systems ...

The scintillating grid is a recently discovered visual illusion, created by superimposing white discs on the intersections of orthogonal gray bars on a black background. Even though the entire display is stationary, observers perceive dark spots appearing and disappearing rapidly within some of the white discs.

Quantum Dot Loaded Nanocomposite Plastic Scintillators
Exciton confinement within nanoparticle quantum dots results in electronic and optical properties not exhibited within bulk material semiconductors of the same composition. This thesis reports how loading CuInS/ZnS quantum dots in polyvinyl toluene (PVT)-

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Development and properties of cadmium and lead tungstate low-background scintillators for double beta decay experiments [PDF]
Methods of deep purification of natural and isotopically enriched cadmium (Cd, 106Cd, 116Cd), as well as of archaeological lead (archPb), to produce cadmium and lead tungstate crystal scintillators have been developed. The basic stages of development and
