Iron atoms adsorbed on a Cu(111) surface and buried under polyphenyl dicarbonitrile molecules exhibit strongly spatial anisotropic Kondo features with directionally dependent Kondo temperatures and line shapes, as evidenced by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. First-principles calculations find nearly full polarization for the half-filled Fe 3dxz and 3dyz orbitals, which therefore can give rise ...

The marketing landscape has never been more complex than now. With data pouring in from new channels every day, CMOs and their teams are increasingly buried by numbers, facts and details about their business, their products, their customers, the marketplace . . . so many signals and so much noise. The ability to extract insights that drive better business outcomes is becoming harder by the day....

We show that a weakly absorbing, strongly scattering (white) medium can be made very strongly absorbing at any frequency within its strong-scattering bandwidth by optimizing the input electromagnetic field. For uniform absorption, results from random matrix theory imply that the reflectivity of the medium can be suppressed by a factor ∼(ℓ(a)/ℓ)N(-2), where N is the number of incident channels a...

The common goals of the Geoclutter program are to: (1) understand the acoustic scattering process in shallow water, in order to design physics-based signal processing algorithms to distinguish acoustic returns originating from naturally-occurring features on the world's continental shelves (e.g., iceberg scours, shallow gas accumulations, outcrops of high-amplitude shallow subsurface reflectors...

We demonstrate the existence of buried image-potential states at the interface between thick Ar films and a Cu(100) substrate. The electron dynamics of these solid-solid interface states, energetically located above the vacuum level in the band gaps of both materials, could be investigated with time-resolved two-photon photoemission for an Ar layer thickness up to 200 A. Relaxation on time scal...

Molecular cavities, which include voids and channels, are critical for molecular function. We present a webserver, BetaCavityWeb, which computes these cavities for a given molecular structure and a given spherical probe, and reports their geometrical properties: volume, boundary area, buried area, etc. The server's algorithms are based on the Voronoi diagram of atoms and its derivative construc...

Original scientific paper Studies on the evolution of paleo-channels in coastal areas are important for submarine engineering construction and to reveal changes in the global paleoenvironment. Thus, to explore the characteristics of paleo-channels during the late Last Glaciation in the western South Yellow Sea, digital terrain analysis method and ArcGis river extraction function were employed, ...
