This article reports optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the M33 star B416, establishing it as the fifth identified luminous blue variable (LBV) in that galaxy.

This article studies the origin of broad band light emission in the ultraviolet to the red from silicon nanoparticles fabricated using a single low energy silver ion implantation.

Article discussing fluorescence intermittency in blinking quantum dots.

Article studying the influence of microwave signals of different shapes on the magnetoacoustic wave system with a giant nonlinearity in canted antiferromagnet FeBO₃ at room temperature, which is close to its phase transition to the paramagnetic state. Results represent the first observation of the macroscopic quantum statistical phenomenon, Bose-Einstein condensation of magnetoacoustic wave quanta in a wave system with a high level of thermal fluctuations.

Article on the renewal and memory origin of anomalous diffusion and a discussion of their joint action.

Article presents the simulations of an electrostatic quadrupole quadruplet (EQQ) lens system that will be used in a new sub-micron multi-ion beam for radiobiological studies.

Article analyzing dispersion of sound in a solid-fluid layered structure and found a flex point on the isofrequency curve where D vanishes for given direction of propagation and frequency. Nonspreading propagation is experimentally observed in a water steel lattice of 75 periods (~1 meter long) and occurs in the regime of anomalous dispersion and strong acoustic anisotropy when the effective mass along periodicity is close to zero. Under these conditions the incoming beam experiences negative refraction of phase velocity leading to backward wave propagation. The observed effect is explained using a complete set of dynamical equations and our effective medium theory.

This article describes the recent re-design of the code and the new features and improvements in performance of PAOFLOW, a software tool that constructs tight-binding Hamiltonians from self-consistent electronic wavefunctions by projecting onto a set of atomic orbitals.

This article quantitatively assesses, by means of comprehensive numerical simulations, the ability of broadband photometric surveys to recover the broad emission line region size in quasars under various observing conditions and for a wide range of object properties.

This article describes a proposed antihydrogen gravity experiment that could be conducted at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator facility to determine the directionality of the acceleration of antihydrogen in earth’s gravitational field.

Article discussing aging in the financial market.

Article discusses an interesting approach to accounting for brain and behavioral asymmetry based on competition and cooperation in phenotypically asymmetric individuals. The model in question shows, in an almost fully analytical way, that under proper conditions, there exists an unequal number of equilibrium of left-and right-lateralized individuals.
