Summary: Electron transmission through chiral molecules depends on the electron's spin, known as Chiral-Induced Spin Selectivity (CISS), with preference for a specific spin determined by the system's handedness and electron tunneling direction. Molecular motors based on overcrowded alkenes exhibit multiple inversions of helical chirality under light and thermal changes, leading to multistate switching of spin selectivity. By modulating the spin selectivity through controlled sequences of helical states, opportunities arise for high spatio-temporal precision in on-demand tuning of spin selectivity.

Summary: The study explores the driving of LEDs by untransformed AC and how to reactively limit the maximum current safe for an LED through a series capacitive impedance when using AC, potentially allowing for cheaper and simpler power supplies in some cases. Analysis of such non-linear circuits and experimental exploration of duty cycle and power are also conducted.

Summary: We propose a simple and pure data-driven method to discover new energy levels of quantum many-body systems solely from observed line wavelengths. By computing all possible combinations from known energy levels and wavelengths of unidentified lines, the true levels can be reconstructed from multiple level-line combinations, while the wrong combinations are randomly distributed. This statistical method is demonstrated by finding new levels for various atomic and nuclear systems using available online unidentified line lists.

Summary: Conventional model predictive torque control (MPTC) suffers from large steady-state ripples due to the use of only one voltage vector in a control period. The state-of-the-art double-vector-based MPTC (DVMPTC) aims to improve steady-state performance, but its duty cycle optimization method significantly affects control performances. Therefore, a MPTC method with hybrid mode duty cycle optimization is proposed, which achieves better performance than the universal DVMPTC, especially in the high-speed domain. The proposed method combines the universal DVMPTC method with duty cycle optimization using discrete space vector modulation (DSVM) scheme to further reduce the reference voltage tracking error in DVMPTC. Furthermore, rotation module and pre-selection strategies are introduced to simplify the design of vector selection methods. Comparative simulations and experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Summary: This study used STM and nc-AFM to explore atomic scale control over quantum phase transitions between two different topological quantum states in a π-conjugated polymer, revealing that the phase transition is driven by a pseudo Jahn-Teller effect with coherent fluctuations present. This indicates that emerging quantum criticality near a QPT can give rise to new states of organic matter.

Summary: We performed quantum chemical calculations using time-dependent density functional theory on two types of N-alkyl imine-based light-driven rotary motors. A new transition structure was discovered during thermal isomerization. Based on this, we proposed a '3-step' rotation process and revealed the complete working mechanism in the ground state. Additionally, we theoretically confirmed the robustness of the motors by substituting pendant groups on the rotator in the fjord region. The results showed that the free-energy barriers of the rate-limiting thermal steps can maintain their robustness, making these motors more promising for potential molecular-level machine fabrication.

Summary: This study presents a decentralised and dynamic dc-bus reconfiguration strategy for a stacked polyphase bridge converter, which can isolate or reactivate one of the inverters in the series connection during motoring mode. The strategy requires only two additional active, unidirectional semiconductor switches per inverter and is based on local computations, local measurements, and neighbour-to-neighbour communication, thus extending the reliability and scalability of the hardware.

Summary: In this study, a unidirectional light-driven rotary motor was created by linking two polymer chains between the stator and rotor parts. By tuning the size of the linkers, the motor exhibited clockwise and reverse rotations, leading to increased fluorescence emission. The apparent thermal energies of activation were calculated to quantitatively determine the work generated by the rotary motor.

Summary: This paper presents a method for condition monitoring of rotary machines (specifically for a lathe headstock gearbox) running idle with a constant speed. The method uses a driving three-phase AC asynchronous induction motor as a sensor of the mechanical power via the absorbed electrical power. Signal processing and analysis methods are proposed to describe the periodic components of the absorbed electrical power. The results confirm the predominantly deterministic character of the evolution of the electrical power.

Summary: We introduce a generalized echo squeezing protocol (GESP) as a generalization of the Schrodinger cat state protocol. The GESP allows the squeezing parameter to take on arbitrary values instead of being limited to pi/2. Analytically, we demonstrate that over a broad range of the squeezing parameter, the GESP achieves sensitivity close to the Heisenberg limit within a factor of 2, which is independent of the parity of the number of atoms.

Summary: A topologically equivalent tight binding model is proposed to study quantum phase transitions in a dimer chain driven by an imaginary alternating field. By constructing a partner Hamiltonian through a similarity transformation to fulfill PT symmetry, the topological properties of the non-Hermitian model can be studied. The approach has the potential to investigate topological states of matter under complex external parameters.

Summary: This study investigates the phenomenon of multistability in the velocity dynamics of a Brownian particle. It finds that the multistability is robust with respect to the choice of the starting position and velocity of the particle for moderate and high temperatures, but is affected by initial conditions in the low temperature regime.
