Decreasing the ambulatory knee adduction moment without increasing the knee flexion moment individually through modifications in footprint parameters: A feasibility study for a dual kinetic change in healthy subjects

Gait retraining is gaining in interest to reduce loading associated to knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression. So far, interventions focused on reducing the peak knee adduction moment (pKAM) and it remains unclear if this can be done individually without inc ...

Spatio-temporal shaping of a free-electron wave function via coherent light-electron interaction

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Giovanni Maria Vanacore

The past decade has witnessed a quantum revolution in the field of computation, communication and materials investigation. A similar revolution is also occurring for free-electron based techniques, where the classical treatment of a free electron as a poin ...

Topology and broken Hermiticity

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury

Topology and symmetry have emerged as compelling guiding principles to predict and harness the propagation of waves in natural and artificial materials. Be it for quantum particles (such as electrons) or classical waves (such as light, sound or mechanical ...

Using a Data Driven Approach to Predict Waves Generated by Gravity Driven Mass Flows

Christophe Ancey, Zhenzhu Meng

When colossal gravity-driven mass flows enter a body of water, they may generate waves which can have destructive consequences on coastal areas. A number of empirical equations in the form of power functions of several dimensionless groups have been develo ...

Multipolar origin of electromagnetic transverse force resulting from two-wave interference

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev

We propose a theoretical study on the electromagnetic forces resulting from the superposition of TE and TM plane waves interacting with a sphere. Specifically, we first show that, under such an illumination condition, the sphere is subjected to a force tra ...

Single shot acquisition of spatially resolved spin wave dispersion relations using X-ray microscopy

Dirk Grundler

For understanding magnonic materials the fundamental characterization of their frequency response is essential. However, determining full dispersion relations and real space wavelength measurements are challenging and time-consuming tasks. We present an ap ...

Nuclear Quantum Effects: Fast and Accurate

Venkat Kapil

Atomistic simulations are a bottom up approach that predict properties of materials by modelling the quantum mechanical behaviour of all electrons and nuclei present in a system. These simulations, however, routinely assume nuclei to be classical particles ...

The Microphysics of Stratiform Precipitation During OLYMPEX: Compatibility Between Triple-Frequency Radar and Airborne In Situ Observations

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...

Fast and ultrafast electron microscopies for skyrmions and plasmonics

Gabriele Berruto

In recent years, topology gained a central role in physics. We learnt that energetics could be often explained better by classes of objects defined by having qualitative differences. In today's jargon, we say they are topologically distinct. The process of ...

Ultrafast generation and control of an electron vortex beam via chiral plasmonic near fields

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Giovanni Maria Vanacore, Enrico Pomarico, Gabriele Berruto, Brett Eugene Barwick

Vortex-carrying matter waves, such as chiral electron beams, are of significant interest in both applied and fundamental science. Continuous-wave electron vortex beams are commonly prepared via passive phase masks imprinting a transverse phase modulation o ...

Tracking Lagrangian transport in Lake Geneva: A 3D numerical modeling investigation

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Andrea Cimatoribus

Lake Geneva, the largest freshwater lake in Western Europe, is subject to important environmental pressures from its densely populated shores and watershed. To maintain and improve water quality in this lake, as well as in other enclosed or semi‐enclosed b ...
