BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Many plants have some capacity for leaf thermoregulation via stomatal conductance (gsw), such that leaf temperature (Tleaf) is rarely coupled with air temperature (Tair). The d...

Heatwaves are becoming more intense and frequent. Plant photosystem thermal thresholds can vary with species, but also shift in response to environmental triggers. Both upper and lower thresholds c...

Direct and indirect transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been attributed to virus survival in droplets, bioaerosols and on fomites including skin and sur...

We theoretically consider an ensemble of quantum dimers placed inside an optical cavity. We predict two effects. First, an exchange of angular momentum between the dimers mediated by the emission a...

Optical nonreciprocity is manifested as a difference in the transmission of light for the opposite directions of excitation. Nonreciprocal optics is traditionally realized with relatively bulky com...
