Proximity-induced flipped spin state in synthetic ferrimagnetic Pt/Co/Gd heterolayers by Jeovani Brandão, Pamela C. Carvalho, Ivan P. Miranda, Thiago J. A. Mori, Fanny Béron, Anders Bergman, Helena M. Petrilli, Angela B. Klautau, Julio C. Cezar

“…The magnitude and direction of the IMM are interpreted in the framework of both X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and density functional theory. The IMM transferred by Co across the Gd paramagnetic thickness leads to a nontrivial flipped spin state (FSS) within the Gd layers, in which their magnetic moments couple antiparallel/parallel with the ferromagnetic Co near/far from the Co/Gd interface, respectively. …”

A Multiregion Discrete-Time Epidemic Model of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infections: An Optimal Control Approach by Rachid Bouajaji, Hassan Laarabi, Mostafa Rachik, Abdelhadi Abta

“…Firstly, we analyze the epidemic model when the control strategy is based on the vaccination control only, and secondly, when the travel-blocking control is added, we finish with the introduction of the treatment control. The optimal control theory, based on Pontryagin’s maximum principle, is applied thrice in this paper, for the characterizations of the vaccination, travel-blocking, and treatment controls. …”
