Direct Evidence of Topological Dirac Fermions in a Low Carrier Density Correlated 5d Oxide
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The 5d oxide BiRe2O6 is discovered as a low‐carrier‐density topological semimetal hosting symmetry‐protected Dirac fermions stabilized by nonsymmorphic symmetries. Angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy, quantum oscillations, and magnetotransport measurements reveal gapless Dirac cones, quasi‐2D Fermi surfaces, high carrier mobility, and a field ...

Subduction and Slab Detachment Under Moving Trenches During Ongoing India‐Asia Convergence
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 The dynamics of slab detachment and associated geological fingerprints have been inferred from various numerical and analog models. These invariably use a setup with slab‐pull‐driven convergence in which a slab detaches below a mantle‐stationary trench ...

Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

Robustness Assessment of Building Structures under Explosion
Buildings, 2012 Over the past decade, much research has focused on the behaviour of structures following the failure of a key structural component. Particular attention has been given to sudden column loss, though questions remain as to whether this event-independent ...
