Strong One-Dimensional Characteristics of Hole-Carriers in ReS2 and ReSe2.

Each plane of layered ReS2 and ReSe2 materials has 1D chain structure, from which intriguing properties such as 1D character of the exciton states and linearly polarized photoluminescence originate. However, systematic studies on the 1D character of charge carriers have not been done yet. Here, we report on systematic and comparative studies on the energy-momentum dispersion relationships of layered transition metal dichalcogenides ReS2 and ReSe2 by angle resolved photoemission. We found that the valence band maximum or the minimum energy for holes is located at the high symmetric Z-point for both materials. However, the out-of-plane ([Formula: see text]) dispersion for ReSe2 (20 meV) is found to be much smaller than that of ReS2 (150 meV). We observe that the effective mass of the hole carriers along the direction perpendicular to the chain is about 4 times larger than that along the chain direction for both ReS2 and ReSe2. Remarkably, the experimentally measured hole effective mass is about twice heavier than that from first principles calculation for ReS2 although the in-plane anisotropy values from the experiment and calculations are comparable. These observation indicate that bulk ReS2 and ReSe2 are unique semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides having strong one-dimensional characters

On improvements of Opial-type inequalities

In the present paper, we establish some new Opial-type integral inequalities in two variables. The results in special cases yield some of the interrelated results on Godunova–Levin's and Mitrinović–Pečarić's inequalities. These results provide new estimates on inequalities of this type.published_or_final_versio

The stransverse mass, MT2, in special cases

This document describes some special cases in which the stransverse mass, MT2, may be calculated by non-iterative algorithms. The most notable special case is that in which the visible particles and the hypothesised invisible particles are massless -- a situation relevant to its current usage in the Large Hadron Collider as a discovery variable, and a situation for which no analytic answer was previously known. We also derive an expression for MT2 in another set of new (though arguably less interesting) special cases in which the missing transverse momentum must point parallel or anti parallel to the visible momentum sum. In addition, we find new derivations for already known MT2 solutions in a manner that maintains manifest contralinear boost invariance throughout, providing new insights into old results. Along the way, we stumble across some unexpected results and make conjectures relating to geometric forms of M_eff and H_T and their relationship to MT2.Comment: 11 pages, no figures. v2 corrects minor typos. v3 corrects an incorrect statement in footnote 8 and inserts a missing term in eq (3.9). v4 and v5 correct minor typos spotted by reader

Structure of Titan's mid-range magnetic tail: Cassini magnetometer observations during the T9 flyby

We analyze the magnetic structure of Titan's mid-range magnetic tail (5-6 Titan radii downstream from the moon) during Cassini's T9 flyby. Cassini magnetometer (MAG) measurements reveal a well-defined, induced magnetic tail consisting of two lobes and a distinct central current sheet. MAG observations also indicate that Saturn's background magnetic field is close to the moon's orbital plane and that the magnetospheric flow has a significant component in the Saturn-Titan direction. The analysis of MAG data in a coordinate system based on the orientation of the background magnetic field and an estimation of the incoming flow direction suggests that Titan's magnetic tail is extremely asymmetric. An important source of these asymmetries is the connection of the inbound tail lobe and the outbound tail lobe to the dayside and nightside hemispheres of Titan, respectively. Another source could be the perturbations generated by changes in the upstream conditions

Profil Tokoh Remaja Minangkabau Dalam Cerpen-cerpen Remaja Harian Umum Singgalang Minggu

This study aimed to describe the profile in terms of adolescent Minangkabau outlook on life, responsibility, love, beauty, suffering and ideals of the juvenile short stories published by Daily Singgalang Sunday. Data were collected by means of : (1) read and understand short stories teen Singgalang daily publications Sunday, this is done to obtain a clear understanding of the profile of the studied adolescents , (2) record the speech and text can be abstracted as a teenager with profile data use a table format. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the profile of adolescents in juvenile short stories published by daily Singgalang Sunday, has a live view of the ideal form of self behaved , responsible , family and love for the opposite sex , is able to conclude a beauty and also have pain. From the discussion, it can be seen, the profile figure in Minangkabau teen teen short story published Sunday daily Singgalang have a view of life that is included in the category of idealism, pragmatism and materialism

Early time dynamics of laser-ablated silicon using ultrafast grazing incidence X-ray scattering

Controlling the morphology of laser-derived nanomaterials is dependent on developing a better understanding of the particle nucleation dynamics in the ablation plume. Here, we utilize the femtosecond-length pulses from an x-ray free electron laser to perform time-resolved grazing incidence x-ray scattering measurements on a laser-produced silicon plasma plume. At 20 ps we observe a dramatic increase in the scattering amplitude at small scattering vectors, which we attribute to incipient formation of liquid silicon droplets. These results demonstrate the utility of XFELs as a tool for characterizing the formation dynamics of nanomaterials in laser-produced plasma plumes on ultrafast timescales
