Unusually strong electronic correlation and field-induced ordered phase in YbCo$_2$
We report the first study of electrical resistivity, magnetization, and specific heat on YbCo$_2$. The measurements on a single-phased sample of YbCo$_2$ bring no evidence of magnetic ordering down to 0.3 K in a zero magnetic field. The manifestations of low Kondo temperature are observed. The specific heat value divid...

A method to computationally screen for tunable properties of crystalline alloys
Conventionally, high-throughput computational materials searches start from an input set of bulk compounds extracted from material databases, and this set is screened for candidate materials for specific applications. In contrast, many functional materials, and especially semiconductors, are heavily engineered alloys o...

PhotoMat: A Material Generator Learned from Single Flash Photos
Authoring high-quality digital materials is key to realism in 3D rendering. Previous generative models for materials have been trained exclusively on synthetic data; such data is limited in availability and has a visual gap to real materials. We circumvent this limitation by proposing PhotoMat: the first material gener...

Strong, Tough and Stiff Bioinspired Ceramics from Brittle Constituents
High strength and high toughness are usually mutually exclusive in engineering materials. Improving the toughness of strong but brittle materials like ceramics thus relies on the introduction of a metallic or polymeric ductile phase to dissipate energy, which conversely decreases the strength, stiffness, and the abilit...

MHD simulations of small ELMs at low triangularity in ASDEX Upgrade
The development of small- and no-ELM regimes for ITER is a high priority topic due to the risks associated to type-I ELMs. By considering non-linear extended MHD simulations of the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak with the JOREK code, we probe a regime that avoids type-I ELMs completely provided that the separatrix density is hig...
