Ultrafast surface melting of orbital order in La0.5Sr1.5MnO4
Nature Materials - Time-resolved surface X-ray scattering is used to probe how light manipulates orbital order at the surface of a manganite. Femtosecond light is found to generate incoherent...

I finally got round to deleting my Facebook and Twitter accounts. I stopped using them a while ago, but it's good to have them gone!

Today I found out that Science Advances doesn't publish comments on papers. Therefore there is no formal way to raise objections to papers. Shouldn't journals be forced to accept comments on papers they have published?

Some light reading at my hotel in Berlin. I think I'll just about get through it's 1000+ pages before I check out tomorrow
