Resonant Raman scattering is investigated in monolayer WS$_2$ at low temperature with the aid of an unconventional spectroscopy technique, $i.e.$, Raman scattering excitation (RSE). The RSE spectrum is made up by sweeping the excitation…

Persistent activity of magnetars is associated with electric discharge that continually injects relativistic particles into the magnetosphere. Large active magnetic loops around magnetars must be filled with outflowing particles that…
