We discover the existence of vortex solitons supported by the surface between two optical lattices imprinted in Kerr-type nonlinear media. Such solitons can feature strongly noncanonical profiles, and we found that their properties are dictated by the ...

Probing the interplay between surface and bulk states in the topological Kondo insulator SmB$_6$ through conductance fluctuation spectroscopy [PDF]
We present results of resistance fluctuation spectroscopy on single crystals of the predicted Kondo topological insulator material SmB$_6$. Our measurements show that at low temperatures, transport in this system takes place only through surface states ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Factors of estimating flatness error as a surface requirement of exploitation
This study considers the impact of surface quality (surface roughness) on estimating flatness error when measurements are performed using coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Flatness error is estimated using various association methods and various sample

Sorting of droplets by migration on structured surfaces
Background: Controlled transport of microdroplets is a topic of interest for various applications. It is well known that liquid droplets move towards areas of minimum contact angle if placed on a flat solid surface exhibiting a gradient of contact angle.
