Based on the obtained results, the observed α decay of 210Pa can be assigned as the ground-state to ground-state transition. The α-particle energy and half-life allow us to extend the α-decay systematics and provide a rigorous test of nuclear…

Probing the physical properties of LiSbX3 (X = Cl, F) halides perovskites for optoelectronic applications
Structural properties
LiSbX3 (X = Cl or F) form cubic crystal structures with well-defined symmetry (space group 221). LiSbCl3 also has a cubic structure (Pm-3m), but with a larger lattice parameter (a = 5.5345 Å) due to the presence of…

In-silico study of lanthanide-based nanoparticles for dual-modal photoacoustic and MRI theranostics
Density Functional Theory (DFT) is a quantum mechanical modeling method essential for understanding the electronic structure of materials at the atomic level. DFT enables accurate predictions of key optical and magnetic properties, such as band…

Using physics-informed derivative networks to solve the forward problem of a free-convective boundary layer problem
In this section, we present our approach for solving the free-convective boundary layer problem. First, we provide an overview of the problem setup and the governing equations. Next, we introduce the concept of PIDNs and detail our implementation…

Observing one-dimensional anyons: Exotic quasiparticles in the coldest corners of the universe
Scientists led by Hanns-Christoph Nägerl have observed anyons — quasiparticles that differ from the familiar fermions and bosons — in a one-dimensional quantum system for the first time. The results, published in Nature, may contribute to a…
