We reveal experimentally waveguiding characteristics and group-velocity dispersion of line defects in photonic crystal slabs as a function defect widths. The have modes with two types cutoff within the band gap. Interference measurements show that they exhibit extraordinarily large group dispersion, we found whose traveling speed is 2 orders magnitude slower than air. These can be tuned by controlling width, results agree well theoretical calculations, indicating design light paths...
The effects of fluctuating initial conditions are studied in the context relativistic heavy ion collisions where a rapidly evolving system is formed. Two-particle correlation analysis applied to events generated with NEXSPHERIO hydrodynamic code, starting nonsmooth (IC). results show that nonsmoothness IC survives hydroevolution and can be seen as topological features angular function particles emerging from system. A long range observed longitudinal direction azimuthal double peak structure...
Heavy-ion collisions, such as Pb-Pb or p-Pb, produce extreme conditions in temperature and density that make the hadronic matter transition to a new state, called quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Simulations of heavy-ion collisions provide way improve our understanding QGP's properties. These simulations are composed hybrid description results final observables agreement with accelerators like LHC RHIC. However, recent works pointed out these hydrodynamic can display acausal behavior during...

It is demonstrated experimentally that a single missing-hole line defect photonic crystal waveguide fabricated on silicon-on-insulator substrate can support waveguiding mode within the bandgap if width properly tuned.
We report here that a neutralizing mouse monoclonal antibody against basic FGF inhibited both anchorage‐dependent and anchorage‐independent growth of U‐87MG T98G human glioblastoma cells HeLa cells, all which express the remptor genes. In addition, subcutaneous administration this significantly suppressed tumor development or these in nude mice. Therefore, plays an important role neoplastic cells. The neutralization will be effective controlling tumors, such as other cancer bear receptors.

Flow are found be insensitive details evolution. The main effect we observe is $p_T$ spectra, particularly mean transverse momentum. However, at least part this a consequence underlying conformal invariance assumption currently...

E896 has measured Lambda production in 11.6A GeV/c Au-Au collisions over virtually the whole rapidity phase space. The midrapidity p(t) distributions have been for first time at this energy and appear to indicate that hyperons different freeze-out conditions than protons. A comparison with relativistic quantum molecular dynamics model shows while there is good shape agreement high predicts significantly slopes of m(t) spectra midrapidity. data, where overlap occurs, are consistent previously...
We examine the formation of vortical "smoke rings" as a result thermalization energy lost by jet. simulate and evolution these rings using hydrodynamics define an observable that allows to probe this phenomenon experimentally. argue observation vorticity associated with jets would be experimental confirmation quenched jets, also shear viscosity.
Relativistic p+A collisions may produce droplets of quark gluon plasma (QGP) that quickly develop a toroidal vortex structure similar to an expanding smoke ring. We present viscous relativistic hydrodynamic calculations ultra-central and experimental observable probe the structure, correlating polarization momentum hyperons emitted from collision. The effect is robust against changes in definition vorticity used calculate polarization. Experiments at RHIC LHC test existence strength toroids,...

An outstanding problem in heavy-ion collisions is the inability for models to accurately describe ultracentral experimental flow data, despite that being precisely regime where a hydrodynamic description should be most applicable. We reassess status of this puzzle by computing obtained from multiple recent Bayesian were tuned various observables different collision systems at typical centralities. While central data can now described with better accuracy than previous calculations, tension...

In heavy-ion collisions, momentum-dependent pair correlations can be characterized by a principal component analysis (PCA), in which subleading modes are expected to reveal new information on flow fluctuations. However, we find that, as currently measured, these dominated multiplicity fluctuations, serve an unwanted background. Here, propose PCA observables that robust against fluctuations and isolate novel sources of thus being suited provide fresh insight into the initial stages system at...
