The triangular lattice antiferromagnet (TLAF) has been the standard paradigm of frustrated magnetism for several decades. The most common magnetic ordering in insulating TLAFs is the 120 structure. However, a new triple- chiral ordering can emerge in metallic TLAFs, representing the short wavelength limit of magnetic skyrmion crystals. We report the metallic TLAF CoTaS as the first example of tetrahedral triple- magnetic ordering with the associated topological Hall effect (non-zero ). We also present a theoretical framework that describes the emergence of this magnetic ground state, which is further supported by the electronic structure measured by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Additionally, our measurements of the inelastic neutron scattering cross section are consistent with the calculated dynamical structure factor of the tetrahedral triple- state.

We investigate the hadron production from the vortical quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions. Based on the quark-coalescence and statistical hadronization models, we show that total hadron yields summed over the spin components are enhanced by the local vorticity with quadratic dependence. The enhancement factor amounts to be a few percent and may be detectable within current experimental sensitivities. We also show that the effect is stronger for hadrons with larger spin, and thus propose a new signature of the local vorticity, which may be detected by the yield ratio of distinct hadron species having different spins such as and . The vorticity dependence of hadron yields seems robust, with consistent predictions in both of the hadron production mechanisms for reasonable values of the vorticity strength estimated for heavy-ion collisions.

The strengthening mechanism of Ni-38Cr-3.8Al (mass%) alloy with fine lamellar structure composed of the and -Cr layers, which is formed by discontinuous precipitation, was examined by in situ neutron diffraction analysis. The contribution of each constituent phase on the deformation behavior could be separated by the in situ analysis. The plastic deformation occurred preferentially in the and phases, while the -Cr phase deformed more elastically even beyond the yield point of the and phases, which is similar to the cementite in pearlite of a steel. Fine nano-lamellar structure formed by the discontinuous precipitation is found to be mainly responsible for high strength of the alloys, while the influence of the precipitates on strength is likely to be small.

We report on a coordinated and systematic effort to compile and assess all the existing experimental data on photon strength functions extracted from photoabsorption cross sections in the region of the Giant Dipole Resonance and from neutron-, photon- and charged-particle-induced reactions at energies around or below the neutron separation energy. We also present global empirical and microscopic models that describe the photon strength function in the entire photon energy region and reproduce reasonably well most of the existing experimental data. Finally, we recommend photon strength functions for use in basic sciences and applications. The compilation of experimental photon strengths as well as the recommended model calculations are readily available to the user community from a dedicated database hosted at the IAEA.

ECRH assisted plasma breakdown is foreseen with full and half magnetic field in ITER. As reported earlier, the corresponding O1- and X2-schemes have been successfully used for pre-ionisation and breakdown assist in present day devices. This contribution reports on common experiments studying the effect of toroidal inclination of the ECR beam, which is in ITER. All devices could demonstrate successful breakdown assist also for this case, although in some experiments the necessary power was almost a factor of two higher compared to perpendicular launch. Differences between the devices with regard to the required power and vertical field are discussed and analysed. In contrast to most of these experiments, ITER will build up loop voltage prior to the formation of the field null due to the strong shielding by the vessel. Possible consequences of this difference are discussed.
