Hidden fat in children’s muscles: what it reveals about their cardiometabolic health
Obesity is often defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation, usually measured by the BMI. However, BMI does not tell us the whole story. Not all fat in the body behaves in the same way, and where fat is stored might make a big difference for our health.
Observation of nonlinear edge states in an interacting atomic trimer array
We study the interplay between topology and nonlinearity by measuring the effect of varying interactions on the density population and participation ratio in the quench dynamics of topological atomic trimer arrays.
Exploring GeS₂ to Rethink Photonic Devices
From AR glasses to smart contact lenses, the future of photonics hinges on better materials. Our research highlights germanium disulfide (GeS₂), which combines high refractive index, full visible transparency, and strong anisotropy – unlocking new ways to control and shape light.
