Exploration of migration directions in different populations of Eothenomys miletus in the Hengduan Mountains of Yunnan Province: a genome-based analysis by Yanfei Cai, Ting Jia, Wanlong Zhu, Wanlong Zhu, Wanlong Zhu

“…Our results indicated that the ALS population is positioned at the base of the phylogenetic tree, and admixture analysis revealed that the ALS population is more closely related to the JC and DQ populations. Integrate the molecular genetic structure, fossil records of E. miletus as well as the results of our research, we inferred that the migration direction of E. miletus may have been from south to north, suggesting that the DQ and JC populations may have originated from the migration of ALS. …”

Metasurface higher-order poincaré sphere polarization detection clock by Hui Yang, Kai Ou, Qiang Liu, Meiyu Peng, Zhenwei Xie, Yuting Jiang, Honghui Jia, Xinbin Cheng, Hui Jing, Yueqiang Hu, Huigao Duan

“…Conventional strategies for detecting SoP, which typically involves a sequence of cascaded optical elements, are bulky, complex, and run counter to miniaturization and integration. While metasurface-enabled polarimetry has emerged to overcome these limitations, its functionality predominantly remains confined to identifying SoP within the standard Poincaré sphere framework. …”
