Matching Terahertz and Hall Mobilities as a Hallmark of Intrinsic Charge Transport in Metal-Halide Perovskites

Announce Type: cross Abstract: Charge-carrier transport in soft-lattice materials, including metal-halide perovskites, is often perceived to be highly heterogeneous across different length scales, and influenced by both the intrinsic (dynamic) thermal electronic disorder and extrinsic (static) disorder due to crystal defects, impurities, grain boundaries, and surface states. As a consequence, the reported carrier mobilities obtained by different electrical and optical measurement techniques...

Genomic hallmarks of parasexual reproduction in three hybrid groups of the human pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans

Hybridization is a major driver of fungal evolution, yet knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underpinning hybridization and its genomic impact remain limited. Here, we analyse 197 Cryptococcus neoformans genomic sequences, including 13 newly sequenced strains, identifying three genetically clustered and distinct hybrid groups (H1, H2 and H3) each with unique parental origins and ecological associations. Using phylogenomics, population structure analyses, and long-read genome assemblies, we...

Alveolar niche disruption and aberrant epithelial reprogramming are early hallmarks of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease in which the earliest cellular events driving fibrosis remain poorly defined. Here, we analyzed lung samples from three independent and unique cohorts of patients with early disease and preserved lung function (Florence, NIH, Forli), applying an integrated multimodal approach combining single-nucleus RNA sequencing, bulk transcriptomics, immunostaining, and spatial transcriptomics. Single-nuclear RNA sequencing of...

Victorian coroner recommends mental health guarantee for gun owners

Victorian coroner recommends mental fitness requirement for gun owners Wed 10 Jun 2026 at 1:59pm In short: A coroner has called on the state government to require Victorians to provide medical evidence to prove their suitability to hold a gun licence. At present firearms owners can self-report mental health issues in a system the coroner described as having the "hallmarks of a rubber-stamping process". The Victorian government is set to adopt a range of recommendations made by a review into...

Slow Oscillations Gate Interictal Spikes Across the Human Thalamocortical-Epileptogenic Network

Background: Slow oscillations (SOs; 0.5-1.5 Hz), a hallmark of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, are associated with a marked amplification of interictal epileptiform spike (IIS) activity in focal epilepsy. However, the network-level organization of this effect across the thalamocortical-epileptogenic system, and whether IIS-permissive SOs can be predicted from pre-onset brain states, remain unclear. Methods: We analyzed simultaneous scalp EEG and stereo-EEG (SEEG) recordings from 6...

Five sailors killed as cargo ships struck in Sea of Azov

The cargo vessels Natra and Zirkon — both bearing hallmarks of Russia's shadow fleet and heading to load grain at a port linked to looted Ukrainian supplies — were struck overnight near Taganrog. Five Azerbaijani sailors were reportedly killed after two cargo vessels were hit by drones in the Sea of Azov near the Russian port of Taganrog, Azerbaijan's foreign ministry said on Friday. The vessels, identified as the dry cargo ships Natra and Zirkon, were reportedly travelling from Turkey to...

The G\"odel Universe as a Superconductor

Announce Type: new Abstract: Material science and engineering have benefited from the use of geometric and topological tools. A material medium can mimic effective gravitational fields while spacetime metrics serve as geometric models of physical media. Albeit analog models of optical, acoustic, and viscous media in curved spacetimes are well established, none have yet captured the hallmark constitutive properties of superconductors.
