A complex-valued transmission matrix describing a scattering medium can be constructed from a sequence of many interferometric measurements. A major challenge in such experiments is to correct for rapid phase drift of the optical system during the data acquisition process, especially when the phase drifts significantly between consecutive measurements. Therefore, a new method is presented where the exact phase drift between two measurements is characterized and corrected using a single additional measurement. This approach removes the need to continuously track the phase and significantly relaxes the phase stability requirements of the interferometer, allowing transmission matrices to be constructed in the presence of fast and erratic phase drift.

The collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates during the Eocene represents a major tectonic shift that significantly altered biotic dynamics and promoted species diversification across the Oriental region. To explain the diversification of taxa from the Indian subcontinent into Southeast Asia, two principal hypotheses have been proposed: the "Biotic-ferry" and "Step-stone" models. The subfamily Perittopinae, a lineage of semi-aquatic bugs comprising a single genus and 20 extant species, provides an ideal system for testing these hypotheses due to its disjunct distribution spanning the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.

The collisionless cross-field electron transport in an plasma configuration, representative of a Hall thruster, is studied using bispectral analysis on the data of a fully-kinetic simulation. The nonlinear, in-phase interaction of the oscillations of the azimuthal electric field and the electron density, both tied to the fundamental electron cyclotron drift instability (ECDI) mode, is found to be the main driver of electron transport. Higher-wavenumber ECDI modes do not drive anomalous transport directly; however, they are nonlinearly coupled with each other and with the fundamental ECDI mode.

We systematically investigated DNEs throughout imbibition processes, specifically evaluating: (1) the temporal correspondence between DNE development and changes in water saturation/capillary pressure, and (2) the dominant factors governing DNE magnitude during imbibition. The signal drift during extended testing, and the gravitational effect on both the capillary pressure and water saturation were eliminated. The results indicate that, when water saturation was below a threshold value (∼0.

Humans and other organisms make decisions choosing between different options, with the aim of maximizing the reward and minimizing the cost. The main theoretical framework for modeling the decision-making process has been based on the highly successful drift-diffusion model, which is a simple tool for explaining many aspects of this process. However, recent observations challenge this model.

The rapid growth of natural-gas vehicles (NGVs) necessitates robust catalysts for the simultaneous abatement of methane (CH), nitrogen oxides (NO), and carbon monoxide (CO) under fluctuating exhaust compositions. We reported a site-engineered MnGa@In-CHA OXZEO catalyst in which indium was confined within an SSZ-13 framework, and GaO and MnO phases were uniformly dispersed on its exterior. MnO markedly enhanced redox capacity, driving NO → NO oxidation and lowering the activation energy for C-H bond cleavage in CH, while GaO tuned the Brønsted acidity and mediated electron transfer among In, Mn, and Ga centers.
