Abstract As autism spectrum disorder (ASD) becomes increasingly prevalent globally, there is a research and clinical commitment to understand its causes, manifestations, as well as potential treatments. This review explores how genetics, environmental exposures, and epigenetics may collectively determine brain development in autistic individuals based on insights from developmental neuroscience and molecular genetics. This article […]

Abstract Diamond nitrogen vacancy (NV) center gyroscopes benefit from a carbon-lattice with a low nuclear spin background which stabilizes their electron and nuclear spins enabling long coherence times. Unlike gas-based nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) gyroscopes and spin-exchange relaxation free (SERF) atomic spin gyroscopes, the crystal lattice nature of diamond allows NV center point defects embedded […]

Abstract In this paper, we explore minimal surfaces and graphs in differential geometry. We derive the equation for a catenoid, a rotationally symmetric solution to the first variation of area functional for equidistant bounded discs. This analysis reveals two possible configurations for the catenoid, with an inner-radius and outer-radius catenoid that arise when the distance […]
