Bienvenue à Montréal: JPhysD at ISPC23
We’re at the 23rd International Symposium on Plasma Chemistry – come say hi!
Introducing the 2017 Plasma Roadmap: Low temperature plasma science and technology
JPhysD presents the 2017 Plasma Roadmap: the first of a planned series of periodic updates to the original Plasma Roadmap that was published in 2012.
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 ›

Could 2D materials open new avenues for magnetic tunnel junctions and spin electronics?
Image of the week: The oscillatory magnetization dynamics of a vortex-containing nanodot
This week’s image of the week is a vector plot of the function (10) from the JPhysD article Spin-transfer-driven oscillations of the magnetic quasi-vortex in a dot with crystalline cubic anisotropy Andrzej Janutka and Przemysław Gawroński 2017 J. Phys. D:… Read More ›
The cell membrane is more complex than we think
Can we understand the cell membrane structure using chemistry tricks?
Opening the way to new developments in integrability for the gauge/gravity duality
Recently Journal of Physics A published a special issue titled “an integrability primer for gauge-gravity duality”which grew out of a GATIS Young Researchers Integrability School held at Durham University in July 2015. The issue was made up of 6 topical reviews based on the lectures delivered at the summer school, aiming to provide a pedagogical introduction to integrability, particularly aspects relevant to the AdS/CFT correspondence.
Perovskite nanowires to change the color of light
In their recent Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics special issue paper, invited as part of our Emerging Leaders special issue, Rachel Grange et al investigate the use of nanoscale materials in nonlinear optics. The goal of the Optical Nanomaterial Group at… Read More ›
Image of the Week: An alkali-ion battery
This week’s Image of the Week is a schematic view of an alkali-ion battery on discharge mode. The cathode and anode are shown together with the alkali ions (yellow), the electrolyte (orange) and the separator. The image is taken from… Read More ›
