Intrinsic constraint on T c for unconventional superconductivity by Qiong Qin, Yi-feng Yang

“…As a result, the known families of unconventional superconductivity, possibly except the infinite-layer nickelates, seem to almost exhaust their potentials in reaching the maximal T c allowed by their respective J, while achieving room temperature superconductor would require a much larger J beyond 400–700 meV, which seems unrealistic in existing correlated materials and hence demands novel pairing mechanisms. The agreement also implies some deep underlying principles of the constraint that urge for a more rigorous theoretical understanding.…”

Mapping spreading depolarisations after traumatic brain injury: a pilot clinical study protocol by Anant Naik, Samuel W Cramer, Isabela Peña Pino, Danielle Carlson, Michael C Park, David P Darrow

“…The propagation of CSDs relative to structural brain pathology will be mapped using reconstructed CT and electrophysiological cross-correlations. The novel use of multiple subdural strip electrodes in conjunction with brain morphometric segmentation is hypothesised to provide sufficient spatial information to characterise CSD propagation across the cerebral cortex and identify cortical foci giving rise to CSDs.Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute’s ethics committee, HSR 17-4400, 25 October 2017 to present. …”
