    Topological Superconductivity in Skyrmion Lattices

    Full text link
    Atomic manipulation and interface engineering techniques have provided a novel approach to custom-designing topological superconductors and the ensuing Majorana zero modes, representing a new paradigm for the realization of topological quantum computing and topology-based devices. Magnet-superconductor hybrid (MSH) systems have proven to be experimentally suitable to engineer topological superconductivity through the control of both the complex structure of its magnetic layer and the interface properties of the superconducting surface. Here, we demonstrate that two-dimensional MSH systems containing a magnetic skyrmion lattice provide an unprecedented ability to control the emergence of topological phases. By changing the skyrmion radius, which can be achieved experimentally through an external magnetic field, one can tune between different topological superconducting phases, allowing one to explore their unique properties and the transitions between them. In these MSH systems, Josephson scanning tunneling spectroscopy spatially visualizes one of the most crucial aspects underlying the emergence of topological superconductivity, the spatial structure of the induced spin-triplet correlations

    Gas burning makes treatment of weed organic. The new ENVO-DAN burner saves 40% gas and treats 1/2 meter in width.It can be mounted on a standard lawn tractor, orchard tractor or a mobile robot. The modular burner system for burning weeds in orchards can be configurated to your needs

    Rostro-caudal networks for sound processing in the primate brain

    Get PDF
    Sound is processed in primate brains along anatomically and functionally distinct streams: this pattern can be seen in both human and non-human primates. We have previously proposed a general auditory processing framework in which these different perceptual profiles are associated with different computational characteristics. In this paper we consider how recent work supports our framework

    Sex differences in HIV effects on visual memory among substance-dependent individuals

    HIV’s effects on episodic memory have not been compared systematically between male and female substance-dependent individuals. We administered the Brief Visuospatial Memory Test–Revised (BVMT–R) to 280 substance-dependent HIV+ and HIV– men and women. Groups were comparable on demographic, substance use, and comorbid characteristics. There were no significant main effects of sex or HIV serostatus on BVMT–R performance, but HIV+ women performed significantly more poorly on delayed recall. This effect was most prominent among cocaine-dependent HIV+ women. Our findings are consistent with recent speculation that memory impairment may be more common among HIV+ women, particularly those with a history of cocaine dependence

    A note on the button shells fishery in Kakinada Bay

    Get PDF
    Umbonium species commonly called as 'button shells' are the smallest gastropod shells under the family Trochidae and subfamily Umboninae. They are also known as 'button top shells' or 'button snails'. They come in vast array of colours, in shades of grey, brown, olive green, pink, red, yellow or even white, almost uniform or with different axial and/ or spiral patterns. Even in single species various colour and patterns can be seen. They are distributed in the Indo-West Pacific regions where they lie burrowed in the shallow, soft and sandy bottoms. They occur in high densities and the individuals are usually very active. They feed on detritus and algae, sometimes depending on filter feeding unlike other snails. When confronted by predators they bury into the sandy bottom using their long foot or float into the water column to escape. They are non-edible ornamental gastropods that have high demand in the ornamental shellcraft industry

    Effect Of Online Education On Elementary Education In India

    The mishaps happening in online education can cost a lot to the students who are getting educated by it in many ways. Elementary students particularly suffer immensely in terms of health, safety due to the online mode of education. The education system for young kids is viewed as a sacred stage since it helps in imparting basic knowledge to a human being. Yet, there are many Initiatives to help the problem, but it is still not enough. The objective of this study is to find whether online education is fruitful for the elementary school, and to deduce how many hours is advisable for elementary class, also to find how much health is getting affected, likely also to see if gadgets is advised to provide to the elementary students, lastly to ascertain which mode of education is most preferable for elementary education. Unlike in the case of doctrinal research where the research is conducted on the basis of facts and data already collected in the library, archives and other databases, collecting or gathering information by a first-hand study into the universe, it helps the empirical research to be carried on. There are a total of 1005 samples collected with regard to this study. Hence, through these figures, we are able to understand that there is not much reception regarding online education for elementary students among the general public but truly they are at a confused level about which mode is truthfully the good one for elementary school students
