Open AccessKondo screening in a Majorana metal
Kondo impurities provide a nontrivial probe to unravel the character of the excitations of a quantum spin liquid. In the S = 1/2 Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice, Kondo impurities embedded in the spin-liquid...

Open AccessDichotomy in temporal and thermal spin correlations observed in the breathing pyrochlore LiGa1−xInxCr4O8
A breathing pyrochlore system is predicted to host a variety of quantum spin liquids. Despite tremendous experimental and theoretical efforts, such sought-after states remain elusive as perturbation terms and ...

The influence of preoperative epidural labor analgesia on postoperative pain in parturients undergoing emergency cesarean section
Intense noxious input from the periphery may result in central sensitization and hyperexcitability, thus accentuating subsequent postoperative pain. Parturients who undergo emergency cesarean section (C-sec) a...

Robustness of dynamic magnetism in the triangle-based antiferromagnets Ba3Ru1−xIr x Ti2O9 (x = 0.5 and 0.8)
We report on the spin dynamics of the strong spin-orbit coupled antiferromagnets Ba3Ru1−xIr x Ti2O9 (x = 0.5 and 0.8), which comprise a mixture of edge- and corner-sharing triang...

Prospective, randomized and controlled trial on magnesium sulfate administration during laparoscopic gastrectomy: effects on surgical space conditions and recovery profiles
The degree of neuromuscular blockade is one of the important factors that determine the condition of surgical space during laparoscopic surgery. Magnesium sulfate potentiates the actions of neuromuscular block...

Open AccessRaman spectroscopic signature of fractionalized excitations in the harmonic-honeycomb iridates β- and γ-Li2IrO3
The fractionalization of elementary excitations in quantum spin systems is a central theme in current condensed matter physics. The Kitaev honeycomb spin model provides a prominent example of exotic fractional...

Ultrasonographic investigation of the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on the cross-sectional area of the femoral vein
Femoral veins are commonly used as a relatively safe alternative route for central venous cannulation. Several maneuvers are used to increase the cross-sectional area of the vein. In this study, we assessed th...

Measurement of Estrogen Effect on Bone Turnover by 2H2O Labeling
Estrogen loss has been known to increase bone turnover through accelerated bone resorption coupled by increased bone formation. In the present study, we measured estrogen effect on bone turnover by incorporati...

On the steady-state transverse vibrations of a cracked spherical shell
Using an integral formulation, the problem of a spherical shell containing a through crack of length 2c and subjected to periodic transverse vibrations of frequency ω is solved for the in-plane and Kirchhoff b...
