Summary: The presence of short-range order influences the mobility of dislocations in high-entropy alloys, with edge dislocations being enhanced and double-kink nucleation in screw dislocations being reduced. A cross-slip locking mechanism is observed for the motion of screws, providing extra strengthening for refractory high-entropy alloy system.

Summary: We propose a method to extend the measurement capabilities of high power short pulse lasers by incorporating spectral sensitivity, specifically within the range used in chirped pulse amplification systems. The spectral response achieved through angle tuning of the third harmonic generating crystal is modeled and experimentally validated. Measurements of spectrally resolved pulse contrast of a Petawatt laser frontend illustrate the significance of full bandwidth coverage in interpreting laser target interactions, particularly with solid targets.

Summary: This paper proposes a second-order accurate scheme for the temporal discretization of abstract Volterra integrodifferential equation with a weakly singular kernel. The scheme is constructed using the Crank-Nicolson method for the time derivative approximation and the product integration rule for the integral term approximation. The proposed scheme employs a graded mesh for time to compensate for the singular behavior of the exact solution at t=0$$ t equal to 0 $$. Stability and convergence are established by the energy argument, and numerical experiments validate the theoretical estimate.

Summary: In this article, a high-order translational motion compensation method is proposed, which can accurately achieve high-order translational compensation by searching the peak values of the higher order ambiguity functions (HAFs) and performing convolution on the frequency spectrum to estimate the residual translational velocity.

Summary: By designing monopolarized and dual-polarized polarization-rotating frequency-selective surfaces (PR-FSSs), it is possible to achieve both polarization rotation and frequency selection simultaneously. The monopolarized PR-FSS has a relative bandwidth of 13.58%, while the final-designed dual-polarized PR-FSS can still perform stably under both x- and y-polarized incidences.

Summary: In this study, the effects of second harmonics and second-order intermodulation on the IM3 powers were theoretically modelled and experimentally verified. A modified non-linear transfer function was developed by considering multiple non-linear superpositions in cascaded non-linearities. Numerical simulations were performed to demonstrate the effect of signals induced by the second-order non-linearity on the IM3 powers in series passive components.

Summary: Temporal contrast directly affects the interaction between ultraintense and ultrashort pulse lasers with matter. Broad bandwidth and high temporal contrast seed laser sources are significant for overall temporal contrast enhancement. The technique of cascaded nonlinear processes with optical parametric amplification and second-harmonic generation is demonstrated for high temporal contrast seed source generation, reaching a contrast of over 10(11) within 40 ps before the main pulse. The high-contrast pulse has a pulse energy of 112 μJ and a duration of 70 fs, and its high beam quality and stability make it suitable as a high-quality seed for Nd:glass-based ultraintense and ultrashort pulse laser facilities.

Summary: Discriminative correlation filters (DCFs) have been widely used in visual object tracking. This paper proposes a second-order spatial-temporal correlation filter (SSCF) learning model to address the limitations of DCFs. Experimental results demonstrate that SSCF achieves competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art trackers.

Summary: In this article, a pseudo-time domain mapping method based on the mechanism of rotating machinery is proposed to eliminate frequency distortion under nonstationary conditions. By optimizing the parameter set, an appropriate pseudo-time domain is constructed to improve the continuity of the spectrum. Numerical and experimental verification shows that this method has good antinoise performance and can deal with complex and close-spaced frequencies.

Summary: In this paper, a novel proportional-derivative iterative second-order neural-network learning control method is proposed for motion-tracking control problems of robotic manipulators. The control framework is structured from time- and iterative-base control layers, and the proposed controller compensates for nonlinear uncertainties and external disturbances in the dynamics. The effectiveness of the controller is verified through extensive comparative simulations, demonstrating advantages such as chattering-free, universal, adaptive, and robust control.

Summary: This study introduces a novel architecture that effectively utilizes second-order pooling while maintaining model complexity unchanged during inference. During training, auxiliary second-order pooling networks help the backbone first-order network learn more discriminative feature representations. After training, all auxiliary branches can be removed, and only the backbone first-order network is used for inference.

Summary: Ensemble statistics can provide a gist of a visual scene through mean estimation without detailed analysis of individual items. The equivalent noise paradigm is often used to measure the impact of internal variance, assuming that additional neural activity in high variance does not affect the averaging efficiency.

Summary: Early direction-selective neurons are considered the main neural basis for motion perception, but actual perception may rely more on tracking object position. Experimental results show that perceived motion can be influenced by form information or be independent of it under different conditions.
