Our paper "Large Magnetic exchange coupling in rhombus-shaped nanographenes with zigzag periphery" was just published today in Nature Chemistry nature.com/articles/s4155…

Here's a sequence of sketches made on a recent Coffee and Draw session done on our Discord server for Sketch to Animate's patrons and subscribers. They show a drawover from me, based from a sketch of a cat made by one of our patrons on the platform.

This led me to a lesson on understanding structure and anatomy in order to help build a more three dimensional feel to that cat sketch. Here's the original sketch Iris Fernández shared with us! Thanks!

This week two of students in my group, Ricardo Ortiz Cano and Noel García defended successfully their PhD thesis at Universidad de Alicante UA. Both of them have carried out research at INL and Alicante. Vivas in Covid time are part of the dystopia we are living, but I am happy they made it.

All the new papers that I need to read

Babies don’t babble to sound cute—they’re taking their first steps on the path to learning language. A study from last year shows parrot chicks do the same. #ScienceMagArchives scim.ag/3o9

nature.com/articles/s4146… Today, a collaboration with the group of Prof. Shiyong Wang (Shanghai University) has been finally published in Nature Communications. Here we show how the parity symmetry of the frontier orbitals in nanographenes can affect to the magnetic exchange.

Water waves are a combination of longitudinal & transverse motions. As a wave moves through water, the particles travel in clockwise circles. The radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases [Dan Russell: buff.ly/3buXf5N]

Enhorabuena a todos los premiados por la RSEF, en especial a Jose Lado, compañero del GEFES RSEF, egresado de USC y ahora profesor en Correlated Quantum Materials, por su galardón como mejor "Investigador Joven en Física Teórica" 2023. Merecidísimo !! fbbva.es/noticias/falla…
