Long-range nonspreading propagation of sound beam through periodic layered structure (open access)

Long-range nonspreading propagation of sound beam through periodic layered structure

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.

Complex Periodicity and Synchronization (open access)

Complex Periodicity and Synchronization

Article explores experimental walking synchronization and complexity restoration. The main goal is to establish a physiological foundation of these important results based on the recent advances on the dynamics of the brain, interpreted as a system at criticality.

Formal oxo- and aza-[3 + 2] reactions of α-enaminones and quinones: a double divergent process and the roles of chiral phosphoric acid and molecular sieves (open access)

Formal oxo- and aza-[3 + 2] reactions of α-enaminones and quinones: a double divergent process and the roles of chiral phosphoric acid and molecular sieves
