The Bloch component in the domain walls of #ferroelectric lead titanate superlattices may not be a universal property of the material, according to a new study that analyzed the 180 degree domain walls in PbTiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices. Check it out: go.aps.org/3OrSNHz

Is there a better way to start the day? #vercors

Checkpoint chess. Yes, those are Molotov cocktails.

THREAD: If you think Putin’s invasion of Ukraine seems so cruel, unnecessary and pointless, let me tell you how Syria started. A few kids in Dara’a sprayed anti-Assad graffiti on a high school wall. 15 kids were arrested, beaten, tortured, had their fingernails ripped out.

My sister was trapped in #Ukraine. This is a thread about her incredible journey to reach #Poland. During her escape she experienced #racism, injuries, freezing temps and sleep deprivation. Her story is only one of the hundreds of thousands of people trying to get out.

Go to Google Maps. Go to Russia. Find a restaurant or business and write a review. When you write the review explain what is happening in Ukraine. Idea via @Konrad03249040

Ok. Deep breath. I think we may look back on this as the first Great Information War. Except we're already 8 years in. The first Great Information War began in 2014. The invasion of Ukraine is the latest front. And the idea it doesn't already involve us is fiction, a lie. 1/

@m_mirolo Awesome!

@matplotlib book is online at labri.fr/perso/nrougier…

@ezatterin and I are still looking for the beam... @esrfsynchrotron

@DDzhigaev I recently discovered them while studying k-means clustering, so cool! What software is that?

Voronoi patterns look so similar to polycrystalline film growth. More details soon!

@a_bjorling No, we were (are) not officially part of the "guinea pigs" BLs that are effectively testing / debugging it right now. But @StevenLeake00 of course was motivated to implement it anyway (because yes, when it works it's awesome) so perhaps he can comment!

@ezatterin How is bliss working out by the way? Did you guys switch systems after the upgrade?

I've written some dry papers in my day, but think this one takes the cake! Me and my colleagues at @MAXIVLaboratory argue that simple and experimentally-driven control systems give flexible and reliable beamlines. doi.org/10.1107/S16005…

When you have a remote beamtime and you don't really know how to help, so you watch your beamline scientist and try and send as much positive energy as possible @esrfsynchrotron

@a_bjorling @StevenLeake00 I must agree with Beatriz - Domains blabla by Tagantsev & co. is just great. Compared to other similar works it tackles the topic from a "big picture" perspective, so information really sticks to the brain. And Nye got me through a couple of exames back in the day!

As might @ezatterin and @StevenLeake00 of course!

I really need to catch up on the physics of ferroics, thin films, superlattices, domain equilibria/dynamics, that sort of thing. I guess "functional materials" is the keyword. Is there a good textbook on this? I suspect @BNoheda, or @DDzhigaev might know!

What is the @esrfsynchrotron ? youtu.be/KgOOyeiqY4g

@DDzhigaev @lunduniversity @esrfsynchrotron This made me laugh a lot!
