4He experiments can serve as a database for determining the three-nucleon force
We report on microscopic calculations for the 4He compound system in the
framework of the resonating group model employing realistic nucleon-nucleon and
three nucleon forces. The resulting scattering phase shifts are compared to
those of a comprehensive R-matrix analysis of all data in this system, which
are available in numerical form. The agreement between calculation and analysis
is in most cases very good. Adding three-nucleon forces yields in many cases
large effects. For a few cases the new agreement is striking. We relate some
differencies between calculation and analysis to specific data and discuss
neccessary experiments to clarify the situation. From the results we conclude
that the data of the 4He system might be well suited to determine the structure
of the three-nucleon force.Comment: title changed,note added, format of figures changed, appearance of

Upper critical magnetic field in K0.83Fe1.83Se2 and Eu0.5K0.5Fe2As2 single crystals
The H-T phase diagrams of single crystalline electron-doped K0.83Fe1.83Se2
(KFS1), K0.8Fe2Se2 (KFS2) and hole-doped Eu0.5K0.5Fe2As2 (EKFA) have been
deduced from tunnel diode oscillator-based contactless measurements in pulsed
magnetic fields up to 57 T for the inter-plane (H//c) and in-plane (H//ab)
directions. The temperature dependence of the upper critical magnetic field
Hc2(T) relevant to EFKA is accounted for by the Pauli model including an
anisotropic Pauli paramagnetic contribution (\mu_BHp=114 T for H//ab and 86 T
for H//c). This is also the case of KFS1 and KFS2 for H//ab whereas a
significant upward curvature, accounted for by a two-gap model, is observed for
H//c. Despite the presence of antiferromagnetic lattice order within the
superconducting state of the studied compounds, no influence of magnetic
ordering on the temperature dependence of Hc2(T) is observed.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Ground state of excitons and charged excitons in a quantum well
A variational calculation of the ground state of a neutral exciton and of
positively and negatively charged excitons (trions) in single quantum well is
presented. We study the dependance of the correlation energy and of the binding
energy on the well width and on the hole mass. Our results are are compared
with previous theoretical results and with avalaible experimental data.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures presented to OECS
Upper critical magnetic field in Ba_0.68K_0.32Fe_2As_2 and Ba(Fe_0.93Co_0.07)_2As_2
We report measurements of the temperature dependence of the radio-frequency
magnetic penetration depth in Ba_0.68K_0.32Fe_2As_2 and
Ba(Fe_0.93Co_0.07)_2As_2 single crystals in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60 T.
From our data, we construct an H-T phase diagram for the inter-plane (H || c)
and in-plane (H || ab) directions for both compounds. For both field
orientations in Ba_0.68K_0.32Fe_2As_2, we find a concave curvature of the
Hc2(T) lines with decreasing anisotropy and saturation towards lower
temperature. Taking into account Pauli spin paramagnetism we can describe
Hc2(T) and its anisotropy. In contrast, we find that Pauli paramagnetic pair
breaking is not essential for Ba(Fe_0.93Co_0.07)_2As_2. For this electron-doped
compound, the data support a Hc2(T) dependence that can be described by the
Werthamer Helfand Hohenberg model for H || ab and a two-gap behavior for H ||
c.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure
Quenched nematic criticality separating two superconducting domes in an iron-based superconductor under pressure
The nematic electronic state and its associated nematic critical fluctuations
have emerged as potential candidates for superconducting pairing in various
unconventional superconductors. However, in most materials their coexistence
with other magnetically-ordered phases poses significant challenges in
establishing their importance. Here, by combining chemical and hydrostatic
physical pressure in FeSeS, we provide a unique access to a
clean nematic quantum phase transition in the absence of a long-range magnetic
order. We find that in the proximity of the nematic phase transition, there is
an unusual non-Fermi liquid behavior in resistivity at high temperatures that
evolves into a Fermi liquid behaviour at the lowest temperatures. From quantum
oscillations in high magnetic fields, we trace the evolution of the Fermi
surface and electronic correlations as a function of applied pressure. We
detect experimentally a Lifshitz transition that separates two distinct
superconducting regions: one emerging from the nematic electronic phase with a
small Fermi surface and strong electronic correlations and the other one with a
large Fermi surface and weak correlations that promotes nesting and
stabilization of a magnetically-ordered phase at high pressures. The lack of
mass divergence suggests that the nematic critical fluctuations are quenched by
the strong coupling to the lattice. This establishes that superconductivity is
not enhanced at the nematic quantum phase transition in the absence of magnetic
order.Comment: 4 figures, 9 page
Fermi surface and effect of high magnetic fields on the metal–semimetal Peierls-like transition of (TSeT)₂Cl
Resistance measurements in pulsed magnetic fields up to 55 T as well as a first-principles DFT calculation of the Fermi surface for the organic metal (TSeT)₂Cl have been performed to investigate its metal–semimetal phase transition. The results obtained are in line with the imperfect nesting that can be inferred from both the observed
metallic behavior of the resistivity at low temperature and the previously reported Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations due to small carrier pockets. The DFT study points out the possibility that the LUMO bands of the TSeT donor may interact with the HOMO ones and modify the shape of the Fermi surface under pressure
Transmission Electron Microscopy, High Resolution X-Ray Diffraction and Rutherford Backscattering Study of Strain Release in InGaAs/GaAs Buffer Layers
Strain release and dislocation distribution in InGaAs/GaAs double heterostructures, step-graded and linear-graded buffer layers have been studied. A higher misfit dislocation density at the inner interface between the InGaAs layer and the substrate was found in all the samples. This corresponded to a strain release of the inner ternary layers much larger than predicted by equilibrium theories. The residual parallel strain of the external layers as a function of their thickness was found to follow a curve approximately of slope -0.5, in agreement with previous investigations on single InGaAs layers. This result has been interpreted as evidence that the elastic energy per unit interface area remains constant during the epilayer growth. The presence of numerous single and multiple dislocation loops inside the substrate was attributed to the strain relaxation occurring through dislocation multiplication via Frank-Read sources activated during the growth. A comparison with InGaAs/GaAs step-graded and linear-graded heterostructures is also shown and briefly discussed.
Finally, lattice plane tilts between epilayers and substrates have been found due to the imbalance in the linear density of misfit dislocations with opposite component of the Burgers vector, b⊥eff, perpendicular to the interface
Defining Metabolic Rewiring in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Metabolomics based on untargeted flow infusion electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (FIE-HRMS) can provide a snap-shot of metabolism in living cells. Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) is one of the predominant subtypes of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers (NSCLCs), which usually shows a poor prognosis. We analysed lung SCC samples and matched histologically normal lung tissues from eight patients. Metabolites were profiled by FIE-HRMS and assessed using t-test and principal component analysis (PCA). Differentially accumulating metabolites were mapped to pathways using the mummichog algorithm in R, and biologically meaningful patterns were indicated by Metabolite Set Enrichment Analysis (MSEA). We identified metabolic rewiring networks, including the suppression of the oxidative pentose pathway and found that the normal tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle were decoupled from increases in glycolysis and glutamine reductive carboxylation. Well-established associated effects on nucleotide, amino acid and thiol metabolism were also seen. Novel aspects in SCC tissue were increased in Vitamin B complex cofactors, serotonin and a reduction of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Our results show the value of FIE-HRMS as a high throughput screening method that could be exploited in clinical contexts
