The Facioscapulohumeral Syndrome: A Report of Two Cases
Two patients developed progressive muscle weakness in adult life. The initial diagnosis of polymyositis was made in both cases, but subsequent studies and the distribution of muscle involvement suggested facioscapulohumeral myopathy. Other investigators have proposed that this syndrome may result from either genetic or acquired causes. In our patients, the disorder was probably a sequela of polymyositis
Thermal Jeans fragmentation within 1000 AU in OMC-1S
We present subarcsecond 1.3 mm continuum ALMA observations towards the Orion
Molecular Cloud 1 South (OMC-1S) region, down to a spatial resolution of 74 AU,
which reveal a total of 31 continuum sources. We also present subarcsecond 7 mm
continuum VLA observations of the same region, which allow to further study
fragmentation down to a spatial resolution of 40 AU. By applying a Mean Surface
Density of Companions method we find a characteristic spatial scale at ~560 AU,
and we use this spatial scale to define the boundary of 19 `cores' in OMC-1S as
groupings of millimeter sources. We find an additional characteristic spatial
scale at ~2900 AU, which is the typical scale of the filaments in OMC-1S,
suggesting a two-level fragmentation process. We measured the fragmentation
level within each core and find a higher fragmentation towards the southern
filament. In addition, the cores of the southern filament are also the densest
(within 1100 AU) cores in OMC-1S. This is fully consistent with previous
studies of fragmentation at spatial scales one order of magnitude larger, and
suggests that fragmentation down to 40 AU seems to be governed by thermal Jeans
processes in OMC-1S.Comment: Accepted to Ap

Nickel oxide-based heterostructures with large band offsets
We present research results on the electronic transport in heterostructures
based on p-type nickel oxide (NiO) with the n-type oxide semiconductors zinc
oxide (ZnO) and cadmium oxide (CdO). NiO is a desirable candidate for
application in (opto-)electronic devices. However, because of its small
electron affinity, heterojunctions with most n-type oxide semiconductors
exhibit conduction and valence band offsets at the heterointerface in excess of
1 eV. ZnO/NiO junctions exhibit a so called type-II band alignment, making
electron-hole recombination the only process by which a current can vertically
flow through the structure. These heterojunctions are nevertheless shown to be
of practical use in efficient optoelectronic devices, as exemplified here by
our UV-converting transparent solar cells. These devices, although exhibiting
high conversion efficiencies, suffer from two light-activated recombination
channels connected to the type-II interface, one of which we identify and
analyse in more detail here. Furthermore, CdO/NiO contacts were studied - a
heterostructure with even larger band offsets such that a type-III band
alignment is achieved. This situation theoretically enables the development of
a 2-dimensional electronic system consisting of topologically protected states.
We present experiments demonstrating that the CdO/NiO heterostructure indeed
hosts a conductive layer absent in both materials when studied separately
