Transport of fluid through a pipe is essential for the operation of macroscale machines and microfluidic devices. Conventional fluids only flow in response to external pressure. We demonstrate that an active isotropic fluid, comprised of…

In this Comment I suggest that the authors' proposition to have observed particle acceleration by stimulated emission of radiation (PASER) near a solid-state active medium is incorrect.

Using analytical calculations, we characterize the rotational behavior of a rigid spherical particle when subject to a net external torque in a continuous viscoelastic environment. On long time scales, the embedding medium can either…

We evaluate vertex corrections to $T_c$ on the basis of the antiferromagnetic spin-fluctuation model of the high-$T_c$ superconductivity. It is found that the corrections are attractive in the $d_{x^2-y^2}$ channel, and they become…
