Superconductivity in an organic insulator at very high magnetic fields
We investigate by electrical transport the field-induced superconducting
state (FISC) in the organic conductor -(BETS)FeCl. Below 4 K,
antiferromagnetic-insulator, metallic, and eventually superconducting (FISC)
ground states are observed with increasing in-plane magnetic field. The FISC
state survives between 18 and 41 T, and can be interpreted in terms of the
Jaccarino-Peter effect, where the external magnetic field {\em compensates} the
exchange field of aligned Fe ions. We further argue that the Fe
moments are essential to stabilize the resulting singlet, two-dimensional
superconducting stateComment: 9 pages 3 figure

Variation in Mitochondrial DNA of Vietnamese Pigs: Relationships with Asian Domestic Pigs and Ryukyu Wild Boars
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences (574 bp) of 30 Vietnamese pigs (large and small) were examined and compared with those of 61 haplotypes from wild boars and domestic pigs from various locations in Asia. The large Vietnamese pigs had genetic links to Ryukyu wild boars in southern Japan. The small Vietnamese pigs were closely related to other East Asian domestic pigs. These results indicate that Vietnamese pigs are genetically diverse and may be descendents of wild and domestic pigs from other regions of Asia
A novel germline mutation of PDGFR-β might be associated with clinical response of colorectal cancer to regorafenib
This is the first description of a germline mutation of the PDGFR-β gene, that correlates with response to regorafenib in a patient with metastatic colorectal cance
