Magnetic vortex evolution in self-assembled La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 nanoislands under in-plane magnetic field
The magnetic vortex formation at room temperature and its evolution under in-plane magnetic field is studied in chemically grown self-assembled Belts La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 nanoislands of less than 200 nm in width.We use variable field magnetic force microscopy and numerical simulations to confirm that the vortex state is ubiquitous in these square-base py
Genetic Relationship Between Endometriosis and Melanoma
Epidemiological studies have observed that risk of endometriosis is associated with history of cutaneous melanoma and vice versa.Evidence for shared biological mechanisms between the two traits is limited.The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic correlation and causal relationship between endometriosis and melanoma.Summary statistics fr
