Image of the week: Profiles of the matter density and electron fraction inside a massive neutron star
Our Image of the Week is taken from the JPhysG article Neutrino pair annihilation above merger remnants: implications of a long-lived massive neutron star, which was published within our Emerging Leaders Special Issue. Specifically, this is a vertical slice (x… Read More ›
An interview with Emerging Leader Endre Szili
“I am hoping that there will be an even higher level of cooperation and collaboration amongst researchers and clinicians in this field, leading to larger, multi-centre clinical trials of plasma in wound decontamination/healing and cancer therapy.”
Image of the Week: DNA-strand breaks within tissue model after treatment with neutral He gas jet
This week’s image is taken from the recent Emerging Leaders article by Endre J Szili, Nishtha Gaur, et al. It shows DNA-strand breaks within a gelatin tissue model after treatment with a neutral He gas jet. The figure is an overlay of phase-contrast… Read More ›
Extending the reach of integrability in AdS/CFT as far as possible

Where in the universe are the heavy elements on the periodic table created?
New constraints on theoretical nuclear models will help to determine the astrophysical site of the rapid neutron capture process One of the longstanding open problems in physics is the quest to understand how the elements on the periodic table are… Read More ›
Image of the Week: Free and Boundary Loops
Today’s Image of the Week comes from a study of A formula for crossing probabilities of critical systems inside polygons. The manuscript is from our Emerging Talents special issue on Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical. Steven Flores, currently… Read More ›
Towards a self-consistent dynamical nuclear model
Are nuclear models as versatile as we would like in the new era of Radioactive Beam Facilities? Nuclei are among the most challenging systems to accurately describe in physics. They are made from few to more than two hundred strongly… Read More ›
Complex light from a photonic chip
A new method to generate complex light beams from integrated-optics circuits is theoretically investigated in a new paper by Andrea Crespi and Francesca Bragheri
Nuclear reactions in exploding stars
Astrophysical reactions that are almost impossible to measure can now be studied in the laboratory The field of Nuclear Astrophysics is an exciting field that brings together scientists from many different communities: Stellar Observers, astrophysics modellers, meteorite experts, nuclear experimentalists… Read More ›
The cell membrane is more complex than we think
Can we understand the cell membrane structure using chemistry tricks?
