Heat Capacity and Thermodynamic Property of Cesium Tetraborate Pentahydrate by Kangrui Sun, Kaiyu Zhao, Long Li, Yafei Guo, Tianlong Deng

“…It was found that there is no phase transition and thermal anomalies. The molar heat capacity of cesium tetraborate pentahydrate is fitted as Cp,m (J·mol−1·K−1) = 593.85705 + 48.0694[T − (Tmax + Tmin)/2]/(Tmax − Tmin)/2] + 24.86395[(T − (Tmax + Tmin)/2)/(Tmax − Tmin)/2]2 + 0.53077[(T − (Tmax + Tmin)/2)/(Tmax − Tmin)/2]3, and the relevant thermodynamic functions of enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy of cesium tetraborate pentahydrate are also obtained at intervals of 2 K from 303 to 349 K.…”

Curing Black Hole Singularities with Local Scale Invariance by Predrag Dominis Prester

“…The main conclusions of our analysis are as follows: (1) singularities signal a phase transition from broken to unbroken phase of Weyl symmetry; (2) instead of a singularity, there is a “baby universe” or a white hole inside a black hole; (3) in the baby universe scenario, there is a critical mass after which reducing mass makes the black hole larger as viewed by outside observers; (4) if a black hole could be connected with white hole through the “singularity,” this would require breakdown of (classical) geometric description; (5) the singularity of Schwarzschild BH solution is nongeneric and so it is dangerous to rely on it in deriving general results. …”

Non-Gaussianity from Particle Production during Inflation by Neil Barnaby

“…In a variety of models the motion of the inflaton may trigger the production of some non-inflaton particles during inflation, for example via parametric resonance or a phase transition. Such models have attracted interest recently for a variety of reasons, including the possibility of slowing the motion of the inflaton on a steep potential. …”

The Experimental Studies on Behavior of Ultrahigh-Performance Concrete Confined by Hybrid Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Tubes by Zong-cai Deng, Jiu-ling Qu

“…The test results show that the local rupture of HFRP tubes did not lead to explosive failure of UHPC cylinder, and its ductility is better than that of UHPC confined by only one type of FRP tube; HFRP tube can effectively improve the compressive strength and ultimate strain of UHPC specimens; the stress-strain curves divide into three distinct regions: linear phase, transition phase, and linear strengthening phase. …”

On Pseudorapidity Distribution and Speed of Sound in High Energy Heavy Ion Collisions Based on a New Revised Landau Hydrodynamic Model by Li-Na Gao, Fu-Hu Liu

“…Our results show that, in heavy ion collisions at energies of the two colliders, the central source undergoes a phase transition from hadronic gas to quark-gluon plasma liquid phase; meanwhile, the target/projectile sources remain in the state of hadronic gas. …”

Heat Capacity and Thermodynamic Properties of Cesium Pentaborate Tetrahydrate by Kangrui Sun, Panpan Li, Long Li, Yafei Guo, Tianlong Deng

“…This paper reports the molar heat capacities of β-CsB5O8·4H2O, which were measured by an accurate adiabatic calorimeter from 298 to 373 K with a heating rate of 0.1 K/min under nitrogen atmosphere. Neither phase transition nor thermal anomalies were observed. The molar heat capacity against temperature was fitted to a polynomial equation of Cp,m (J·mol−1·K−1) = 618.07702 + 39.52669[T − (Tmax + Tmin)/2]/(Tmax − Tmin)/2] − 3.46888[(T − (Tmax + Tmin)/2)/(Tmax − Tmin)/2]2 + 7.9441[(T − (Tmax+ Tmin)/2)/(Tmax − Tmin)/2]3. …”

Biomolecular condensates: Formation mechanisms, biological functions, and therapeutic targets by Xin Niu, Lei Zhang, Yuchen Wu, Zhi Zong, Bin Wang, Jisheng Liu, Long Zhang, Fangfang Zhou

“…The formation of these condensates requires components to change from a state of solubility separation from the surrounding environment by undergoing phase transition and condensation. Over the past decade, it has become widely appreciated that biomolecular condensates are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells and play a vital role in physiological and pathological processes. …”

Valley charge-transfer insulator in twisted double bilayer WSe2 by LingNan Wei, Qingxin Li, Majeed Ur Rehman, Yangchen He, Dongdong An, Shiwei Li, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Martin Claassen, Kostya S. Novoselov, Dante M. Kennes, Angel Rubio, Daniel A. Rhodes, Lede Xian, Geliang Yu, Lei Wang

“…Using gate control, we continuously move the K-valley band across the Γ-valley Hubbard bands, and observe a tunable charge-transfer insulator gap and subsequently a continuous phase transition to a metal. The tuning of Mott˘Hubbard to charge-transfer insulator establishes valley degree of freedom as a suitable knob for transitions between exotic correlated phases.…”
