Magnetic control of an exciton–polariton condensate in a van der Waals magnet

Abstract Quasiparticle condensates are among the most striking solid-state manifestations of quantum physics. Coupling macroscopic real-space wavefunctions to additional degrees of freedom, such as the electron spin, would add valuable control knobs for quantum applications. Whil...

The evolution of composition and thermal conductivity of the ITZ in the early age concrete: model and experiment

The Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) thermal properties are critical for early-age thermal crack initiation in concrete. This study developed a model combining equivalent water-cement ratio (w/c) theory and the Mori-Tanaka method to predict the evolution of the ITZ's composition...
