Possible Superconductivity Transition in Nitrogen‐Doped Lutetium Hydride Observed at Megabar Pressure by Xingbin Zhao, Yu Huang, Shuailing Ma, Hao Song, Yanwei Cao, Hao Jiang, Yanping Huang, Tian Cui

“…Abstract The pursuit of room‐temperature superconductivity at an accessible synthetic pressure has been a long‐held dream for both theoretical and experimental physicists. Recently, a controversial report by Dasenbrock‐Gammon et al. claims that the nitrogen‐doped lutetium trihydride exhibits room‐temperature superconductivity at near‐ambient pressure. …”

A novel multimodality anthropomorphic phantom enhances compliance with quality assurance guidelines for magnetic resonance imaging in radiotherapy by Meshal Alzahrani, David A Broadbent, Irvin Teh, Bashar Al-Qaisieh, Emily Johnstone, Richard Speight

“…Background and purpose: The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for radiotherapy (RT) simulation has grown, prompting quality assurance (QA) guidelines by the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM) and the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM). This study compares a novel multimodality anthropomorphic phantom to an American College of Radiology (ACR) phantom for a subset of these MRI-specific QA tests in RT. …”
