The potential energy curves of the X, A, and B states of alkali-rare gas diatomic molecules, MKr and MXe, are investigated for M = Li, Na, K. The molecular spin-orbit coefficients a(R) = 〈2Π 1/2|ĤSO|2Π1/2〉 and b(R) = 〈2Π-1/2|ĤSO| 2Σ1/2〉 are calculated as a function the interatomic distance R. We show that a(R) increases and b(R) decreases as R...

Using a low-temperature conductive-tip atomic force microscope in cross-section geometry we have characterized the local transport properties of the metallic electron gas that forms at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. At low temperature, we find that the carriers do not spread away from the interface but are confined within ∼10  nm,...

BACKGROUND:For hormone receptor-positive (HR+) human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2-) negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC), international guidelines recommend endocrine therapy as first-line treatment, except in case of 'visceral crisis'. In the latter case, chemotherapy is preferred. Few studies have compared these two strategies....
