Multi-patch/multiple-scattering frequency-time hybrid solver for interior and exterior wave equation problems
This paper proposes a new multiple-scattering frequency-time hybrid (FTH-MS) integral equation solver for problems of wave scattering by obstacles in two dimensional space, including interior problems in closed cavities and problems exterior to a set of disconnected open or closed scattering obstacles. The multiple-scattering FTH-MS method is based on a partition of the domain boundary into a user-prescribed set of overlapping open arcs, along with a corresponding sequence of multiple-scatterin…

Pre-fertilization-origin preservation of brown fat-mediated energy expenditure in humans - Nature Metabolism
In humans, conception during cold seasons is shown to exhibit higher brown adipose tissue activity and adaptive thermogenesis, and lower body mass index and visceral fat accumulation in the offspring.

Housing, food and energy security are “more important now than ever with climate change,”

“Housing is a human right.
It’s imperative we make some progress around ensuring people have adequate housing and that it’s appropriate for the threats that are coming.”

Discovery of a low-density filled-ice phase in nitrogen hydrate at high pressure
We map the high-pressure phase diagram of nitrogen hydrate up to 16 GPa at room temperature by combining neutron diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and crystal structure prediction. We reveal a rich sequence of structural transformations, from sI/sII clathrates to hexagonal (sH) and tetragonal (sT) phases, culminating in a previously unknown orthorhombic filled-ice structure above 1.8 GPa in the Pnma space group, which we designate as NH-V. This new phase cannot be indexed to any known ice framew…

hBN alignment orientation controls moiré strength in rhombohedral graphene
Rhombohedral multilayer graphene hosts a rich landscape of correlated symmetry-broken phases, driven by strong interactions from its flat band edges. Aligning to hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) creates a moiré pattern, leading to recent observations of exotic ground states such as integer and fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects. Here, we show that the moiré effects and resulting correlated phase diagrams are critically influenced by a previously underestimated structural choice: the hBN a…
