Article Abstract
The iron-based superconductor FeTeSe is a peculiar material: it hosts surface states with a Dirac dispersion, is a putative topological superconductor hosting Majorana modes in vortices, and has an unusually low Fermi energy. The superconducting state is generally characterized by three gaps in different bands, with the homogeneous, spatially extended Bogoliubov excitations─in this work, we uncover evidence that it is instead of a very different nature. Our scanning tunneling spectroscopy data show several peaks in the density of states above a full gap, and by analyzing their spatial and junction-resistance dependence, we conclude the peaks above the first one are not coherence peaks from different bands. Instead, comparisons with our simulations indicate they originate from generalized Shiba states that are spatially overlapping. This can lead to an amorphous state of Bogoliubov quasiparticles, reminiscent of impurity bands in semiconductors. We discuss the origin and implications of this new state.

Key locations of oxidative damage in human hair keratins after heat and ultraviolet light exposure.
Int J Cosmet Sci
September 2025
Smart Foods and Bioproducts, AgResearch, Lincoln, New Zealand.
Objective: This study investigated the locations of amino acid modifications within two major human hair keratins (Type I K31 and Type II K85) with probable implications for protein and hair structural component integrity. The particular focus was on cysteine modifications that disrupt intra-protein and inter-protein disulphide bonds.
Methods: Human hair was exposed to accelerated, sequential heat or UV treatments, simulating effects resulting from the use of heated styling tools and environmental exposure over a time frame approximating one year.
Spectral Density Function Analysis Reveals Coupled Relaxation and Resonance Modes in Fluorinated Elastomers: Comparison With Semicrystalline Poly(tetrafluoroethylene).

We reveal contrasting behaviors in molecular motion between the two materials, including the identification of resonance-enhanced dynamic features in elastomers. We present a depth-resolved analysis of molecular dynamics in semicrystalline polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and fully amorphous fluorinated elastomer (SIFEL) films using static-gradient solid-state F NMR imaging. By measuring spin-lattice relaxation rates ( ) at multiple frequencies and evaluating the corresponding spectral density functions, we reveal distinct dynamic behaviors between the two materials.

Amyloidosis is a group of protein misfolding diseases and a well-recognized disorder in avian species. However, the knowledge of wild avian amyloid proteome is scarce. We report here gross, histopathological, ultrastructural, immunohistochemical and proteomic findings of systemic amyloidosis in seven Eurasian stone-curlews (Burhinus oedicnemus) necropsied in the Canary Islands.

Understanding the microscopic origins of glass formation remains a fundamental challenge in the field of physical chemistry. Despite extensive studies, direct structural indicators that predict glass-forming ability (GFA) are still lacking. Here, we introduce a binary colloidal model system that provides real-space composition-resolved visualization of structural disorder.

For years, itinerant charge carriers in ferroelectric insulators were believed to completely quench ferroelectricity. Recent breakthroughs, however, demonstrated the existence of a novel class of quasi-two-dimensional polar metals with promising applications in nonvolatile electronics and spintronics. Here, by combining temperature-dependent magnetotransport measurements, optical second harmonic generation (SHG), resonant photoemission spectroscopy (ResPES), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), we report on the properties of a BaTiO-based oxide heterostructure, sustaining a persistent polar displacement in the BaTiO layer while supporting a two-dimensional electron gas.
