This experimental study measured the electric field inside a plasma channel formed during a high-pressure nanosecond discharge in hydrogen using coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering. The authors report root-mean-square electric field intensities up to 30 kV/cm in the plasma channel. Polarization measurements…

This laboratory study examined Rayleigh-Bénard convection in liquid gallium under varying strengths of a uniform imposed horizontal magnetic field. Using ultrasonic velocity profiling and temperature monitoring, the authors mapped a regime diagram across Ra and Q and identified five flow regimes. The results describe…

This study models nematic liquid crystals embedded in random polymer networks, where disorder disrupts long-range order and produces a glassy state. It uses simulations and an Imry-Ma-like analytic approach to visualize domains, predict domain size, and calculate the response to an applied electric field. The authors…

This engineering study addresses measurement error in magnetoelastic resonance sensors caused by Earth's magnetic field. The authors present an antisymmetric magnetic bias field approach and compare the ribbon response to external perturbation fields against a conventional design. They report a 77% reduction in the…

This physics study analyzes circular wave packets in high Rydberg states produced by applying a pulsed electric field to extreme Stark states. It reports a position-dependent energy gradient that creates a correlation between principal quantum number and spatial coordinate, which appears insensitive to the initial…

This paper describes an engineering device for wireless microscopy using a mobile phone and a WiFi system. The system allows recording, displaying, and storing microscopic images from a remote end via wireless LAN. Conceptual demonstrations are reported for monitoring common objects and liver cancer cells, with…

This paper presents a theoretical description of nonequilibrium dynamics in a three-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard model driven by an external electric field. The authors report direction-dependent damping of Bloch oscillations and the emergence of a long-lived transient prethermalized state over a broad range of field…

This in vitro FTIR study examined human haemoglobin aqueous solutions exposed to a 200 mT static magnetic field for 3 and 7 hours, with and without the disaccharides sucrose and trehalose. The authors report spectral changes (amide A decrease and reduced CH(3) stretching) in haemoglobin dissolved in bi-distilled…

This study investigates instrumentation and procedures to assess electromagnetic exposure from compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) by measuring both incident and induced fields in the 10 kHz–1 MHz range. For some CFLs, incident electric fields exceeded ICNIRP reference levels at close distances, but induced fields were…

This engineering/materials study describes a template-free solution-phase method to synthesize well-aligned nickel nanochains under applied magnetic fields. The authors report that nanochain size and morphology can be tuned by reaction temperature and magnetic field conditions, and explain alignment via magnetic…

This neutron diffraction study quantifies how tetragonal structural domains in SrTiO3 redistribute below 105 K under external electric fields and uniaxial mechanical stress. The authors report that electric field and stress act competitively, and that applying both produces complex domain redistribution. The results…

This theoretical condensed-matter study examines how an electric field affects the electronic spectrum and localization in quasiperiodic chains modeled with Harper and Fibonacci potentials. It reports localized ladder spectra under strong fields and smoothing with linearly decreasing gaps under weak fields. When…

This laboratory/engineering study examined electric-field-induced structuring in clay-oil suspensions using WAXS, SEM, rheometry, and electrical measurements. Particle orientation was quantified via an orientational order parameter derived from diffraction peak azimuthal changes, and chain versus column formation was…

This small clinical case series evaluated TOPAZ radiofrequency coblation microtenotomy for recalcitrant plantar fasciitis in 14 patients. The abstract reports improved AOFAS hindfoot scores at 3 and 6 months and improvements in several SF-36 domains, with most patients reporting good-to-excellent satisfaction. The…

This engineering study measures and simulates screening current induced magnetic fields (SCF) in a Bi2223-tape HTS insert used in an LTS/HTS NMR magnet at 77 K. SCF was induced by the insert self-field, an external 5-T background magnet, and their combination, and axial field distributions and temporal variations…

This paper reports electric-field control of magnetic anisotropy in a Permalloy layer exchange-coupled to a multiferroic BiFeO3 single crystal. The anisotropy is described as arising from magnetic coupling to canted spins in BiFeO3’s cycloidal antiferromagnetic structure. An electric field-induced polarization change…

This Physical Review Letters paper reports magnetotransport measurements on a gated LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface to assess the main effect of an applied gate electric field. The authors find that mobility changes dominate over sheet carrier density changes (mobility variation reported as nearly fivefold larger). They also…

This engineering study demonstrates a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) radio-frequency single-electron transistor (RF-SET) operating at temperatures above 4.2 K. The device was optimized to address high resistance in SOI SETs and showed stable transport characteristics after repeated thermal cycling. RF-SET operation was…

This prospective multicenter longitudinal trial evaluated arthroscopic thermal radiofrequency capsular shrinkage for chronic ankle instability in adults who failed conservative therapy. The study reports no clinically relevant improvement in mechanical stability, but substantial and statistically significant…
