"Acting deals with very delicate emotions. It is not putting up a mask. Each time an actor acts he does not hide; he exposes himself."

Wide-Angle Reflection Suppression of Dielectric Slabs Using Nonlocal Metasurface Coatings
Any discontinuity of constitutive parameters along a wave propagation path causes scattering. For a plane wave incident onto a flat dielectric slab, reflection becomes strongly dependent on the incident angle as the electrical thickness becomes large. This behavior limits the applicability of conventional single- and multilayer anti-reflective coatings. Recently, inspired by the generalized Huygens' condition, synthesized admittance sheets implemented as metasurfaces with local response have be…

Internal dynamics and dielectric screening of confined multiexciton states
Recent experimental and computational studies suggest that biexcitons (BX) confined in large CsPbBr$_3$ nanocrystals experience reduced dielectric screening as compared to excitons (X) and trions (X$^*$). Here we provide a physical rationale to explain such a behavior. A characteristic frequency is introduced, which describes the internal dynamics of an exciton within the excitonic complex. By means of effective mass--variational Quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we show that, in large nanocryst…

B. How does Meloni manage to dress like a 12 year old girl and somehow not seem ridiculous?
C. Feel the stomach acid the Japanese delegate is experiencing 😬
D. How is it that Starmer manages to look *exactly* as awkward at these meetings as Theresa May did?
