Abstract Magnetic skyrmions have great potential for developing novel spintronic devices. The electrical manipulation of has mainly relied on current-induced spin-orbit torques. Recently, it was suggested that the could be more efficiently manipulated by surface acoustic waves (SAWs), an elastic wave can couple with magnetic moment via magnetoelastic effect. Here, designing on-chip piezoelectric transducers produce propagating SAW pulses, we experimentally demonstrate directional motion...

Abstract The Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care Plan promises to help low-income parents, especially women, participate in the economy. But even under this plan, care will be too expensive for many families. Several provinces offer targeted subsidies reduce fees—unfortunately, these benefits are often hard access their popularity with voters is unclear. Using a pre-registered survey experiment (N=821), research note investigates support hypothetical child supplement Overall, we find...

All-optical magnetic switching (AOS) is a recently observed rich and puzzling phenomenon that offers promising technological applications. However, fundamental understanding of the underlying mechanisms remains elusive. Here we present model for multishot helicity-dependent AOS in ferromagnetic materials based on purely heat-driven mechanism presence circular dichroism (MCD). We predict should be possible with as little 0.5% MCD, after minimum number laser shots heat sample close to Curie...

Significance The mechanisms by which abiotic, long-chain hydrocarbons are produced in natural alkaline hydrothermal systems unknown, as only short-chain (<5 carbons) have been experimentally observed to date.

We propose a novel method, called chirplet path fusion, to analyze nonstationary signals with time-varying frequencies. As opposed many existing methods that assume the signal persists throughout whole time, proposed method can be applied in cases where are only present short time frames. A demodulation-operator-based is introduced estimate locally matched atoms which form time-frequency domain. According density of multiple paths obtained under different scales, effective support and...

Researchers have studied sex differences in typical depressive and anxiety symptoms their cooccurrence. The World Health Organization (WHO) proposed a mental health promotion objective that suggests considering protective health-promoting factors when developing strategies for preventing disorders between sexes. From network perspective, psychopathology is viewed as result of interacting influential factors. This study adopted approach to investigate lifestyles (HPL) the cooccurrence...

Introduction The increasing aging population raises significant concerns about the ability of individuals to age healthily, avoiding chronic diseases and maintaining cognitive physical functions. However, pathways through which SDOH factors are associated with healthy remain unclear. Methods This retrospective cohort study used registered tier data from All Us Research Program (AoURP) dataset v7. Eligible participants those aged 50 older who have responded any survey questions available EHR...

Abstract Many older adults with personal care needs rely on paid caregivers to remain in the community (“home care”). Those without Medicaid or private long-term-care insurance must pay out-of-pocket for care. We used Health and Retirement Study identify prevalence financial burden of paying home 2002–2018, by income dementia status. Over 600 000 people a given year, 45% whom have dementia. The quantity cost this were substantial particular: 51% those spent ≥$1000/month. While probability...

Background.Psychosocial interventions encompass psychotherapy and psychological education that explicitly target psychosocial adaptation.These have been shown to a substantial positive effect on reducing anxiety depression, as well improving overall quality of life (QoL).Nevertheless, there is still no consensus concerning the therapeutic effectiveness these interventions.Objectives.An umbrella review systematic reviews meta-analyses was conducted determine efficacy in QoL wellbeing patients...

Nanosheets honeycomb ZnO were grown in situ on surface, resulting a new motif (Co@ZnO catalyst) that inhibits deactivation through ZnO-assisted CoO x reduction. stabilized...

Abstract The synthesis of value-added humic acids from biomass and industrial wastes, such as traditional Chinese medicinal herbal residues (CMHR), represents a sustainable approach for mitigating the adverse environmental impacts associated with these materials. Among various methods converting CMHR, hydrothermal technology is gaining increased attention due to its high conversion efficiency; however, this constrained by relatively temperature requirements. Here, we propose low-temperature...
