Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.The images (a) and (b) illustrate a composite metamaterial with anisotropic permittivity. When incident light, polarized in transverse magnetic or transverse electric modes, enters the structure, the reflectance spectra in (c) and (d) show low reflection and high absorption over a wide range of incidence angles. This behavior has potential applications

Sick of Taxes? Evidence on the Elasticity of Labor Supply when Workers Are Free to Choose [PDF]
I estimate a price elasticity of sickness absence. Sick leave is an intensive margin of labor supply where individuals are free to adjust. I exploit variation in tax rates over two decades, which provide thousands of differential incentives across time ...

Non‐Invasive Diagnosis of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy by Breath
Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.The use of sensor technologies for the diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath samples. By combining gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) and electronic nose (eNose) platforms, specific VOC patterns associated with HCM are detected and analyzed.

Efficient Motion Sickness Assessment: Recreation of On-Road Driving on a Compact Test Track [PDF]
arXivThe ability to engage in other activities during the ride is considered by consumers as one of the key reasons for the adoption of automated vehicles. However, engagement in non-driving activities will provoke occupants' motion sickness, deteriorating their overall comfort and thereby risking acceptance of automated driving.
