Patterned arrays of self-assisted GaP nanowires (NWs) were grown on a Si substrate by gas source molecular beam epitaxy using various V/III flux ratios from 1-6, and various pitches from 360-1000 nm. As the V/III flux ratio was increased from 1-6, the NWs showed a change in morphology from outward tapering to straight…

We studied the spin-transfer torque (STT) in graphene based normal-metal/topological-insulator/ferromagnet heterostructures (N/TI/F), which is induced by the helical spin-polarized current in the quantum spin Hall insulator. We found that the STT is comparable in magnitude to the STT in ferromagnetic-normal- ferromagn…

MiR34 involvement in myocardial injury repair and ageing has been well documented in mouse model. Our aim was to establish whether the inhibition of miR34 expression through locked nucleic acid (LNA) could be used as a pharmacological intervention to enhance human heart repair. Cardiac progenitor cells were obtained b…

We study distributed agreement in synchronous directed dynamic networks, where an omniscient message adversary controls the presence/absence of communication links. We prove that consensus is impossible under a message adversary that guarantees weak connectivity only, and introduce eventually vertex-stable source comp…
