- Inducing superconductivity in Weyl semimetal microstructures by selective ion sputtering
Novel ion beam–based method induces superconductivity in Weyl semimetal microstructures.
- High seismic attenuation at a mid-ocean ridge reveals the distribution of deep melt
Seismic attenuation beneath a mid-ocean ridge indicates a deep, narrow column of mantle melt, implying buoyant upwelling.
- Simple technologies and diverse food strategies of the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene at Huaca Prieta, Coastal Peru
Recent archaeological work in Peru suggests a slower-paced movement of early humans along the Pacific coast.
- Global disparity in the supply of commercial weather and climate information services
Some weather and climate data are freely available, but major disparities exist in access to specialized information services.
- Learning to read alters cortico-subcortical cross-talk in the visual system of illiterates
As little as 6 months of literacy instruction leads to neuroplastic changes in deep structures of the brain of illiterate adults.
- Dynamic and programmable self-assembly of micro-rafts at the air-water interface
We built an out-of-equilibrium material system by designing competing interactions that are both dissipative and programmable.
- Repeated divergent selection on pigmentation genes in a rapid finch radiation
Selection acted repeatedly on regions that may regulate the expression of genes underlying coloration differences in seedeaters.
- CTCF facilitates DNA double-strand break repair by enhancing homologous recombination repair
A new role for the mutlifunctional protein CTCF in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks is discovered.
- Increasing the revenue from lignocellulosic biomass: Maximizing feedstock utilization
Replacing petroleum by biomass can be economically feasible by generating revenue from the three primary biomass constituents.
- Argininosuccinate synthase 1 is an intrinsic Akt repressor transactivated by p53
ASS1 bridges a gap between p53 and Akt.
- Molecular “surgery” on a 23-gold-atom nanoparticle
Changes to surface motifs provide precise tailoring of nanoparticle properties.
- Observation and ultrafast dynamics of a nonvalence correlation-bound state of an anion
A nonvalence electronic state predominantly bound by correlation forces is spectroscopically characterized in a cluster anion.
- A two-dimensional semiconductor transistor with boosted gate control and sensing ability
We achieved record high photoresponsivity in both MoS2 and ReS2 on the structure of an Al2O3/ITO/SiO2/Si “stack.”
