This paper presents a theoretical model of giant phospholipid vesicle deformation in an alternating-current electric field, based on minimizing membrane bending energy and electric-field energy. The model treats the membrane and surrounding aqueous media as leaky dielectrics and reports good quantitative agreement…

This theoretical study models electron spin resonance and spin/charge pumping in zigzag graphene nanoribbons driven by a transverse rotating magnetic field without applied bias. It reports that pumped spin current density increases with ribbon size and rotating-field intensity, and that even-chain ribbons can also…

A theoretical analysis is presented of electron states in a two-dimensional plane bound to an off-plane donor impurity under a magnetic field. The authors calculate energy levels (ground and first three excited states) variationally and report binding energies and mean orbital radii as functions of donor position and…

This paper describes a procedural technique for transseptal puncture that uses brief pulses of radiofrequency energy delivered from a standard electrosurgical cautery generator through the needle tip. The approach is presented as a way to facilitate septal traversal when tissue is elastic, aneurysmal, or thickened,…

This theoretical paper analyzes a Dirac electron in an exponentially decaying magnetic field. It reports exact energy eigenvalues including a zero-energy state and provides corresponding eigenfunctions. The authors also calculate probability density and current distributions.

This theoretical paper analyzes consequences of nonuniqueness of the external magnetic field B(r) in spin-polarized density functional theory. It reports that for ground states the energy functional is not differentiable with respect to spin density, but one-sided derivatives can exist. The work links these one-sided…

This theoretical/physics study investigates spectral properties of a spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a magnetic field. It reports that interchain interactions in a magnetic field generate dominant modes that behave as quasiparticles, featuring anomalous incommensurate…

This engineering study addresses interference between induction-heating cookers and an externally coupled transcutaneous energy transmission system for a totally implantable artificial heart. The authors report that magnetic flux from an IH cooker can couple into the TET transformer and affect system performance. A…

This engineering-focused conference paper proposes figures of merit to evaluate deep-brain transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) coil designs, focusing on depth penetration, scalp stimulation, focality, and energy. It analyzes circular crown and C-core coils and reports reduced electric-field attenuation with…

This Level III therapeutic case-control study evaluated shoulder capsule histology after arthroscopic thermal capsulorrhaphy using monopolar radiofrequency energy, with follow-up from 3.5 to 62 months. Mid- and long-term mRFE groups did not differ from controls on several histologic categories (synovial layer, edema,…

This physics study reports ultranarrow optical absorption and two-phonon excitation spectroscopy of Cu2O paraexcitons in a high magnetic field at 1.2 K. A magnetic field enabled observation of an otherwise forbidden paraexciton absorption line and allowed measurement of field-dependent oscillator strength and energy…
