Childhood psychopathology can cause an array of adverse outcomes later in life, including substance use disorders (SUDs). Perhaps because abuse is thought to be on the externalizing continuum, prospective association between childhood and SUDs more frequently studied than with internalizing disorder. Indeed, research attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder...

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that affects mainly synovial joints. The disease is responsible for the destruction of articular cartilage and ankylosis of the joints. Classified as an autoimmune disorder, rheumatoid arthritis can also cause inflammation in other organs such as the blood vessels, skin and lungs. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include joint pain and sti...

We report structural evidence of dynamic reorganization in vortex matter in clean NbSe(2) by joint small-angle neutron scattering and ac susceptibility measurements. The application of oscillatory forces in a transitional region near the order-disorder transition results in robust bulk vortex lattice configurations with an intermediate degree of disorder. These dynamically originated configurat...
