To investigate static screening beyond the long-wavelength limit, processes involving large momentum transfers need to be considered. Large-angle collisions are a typical process where finite-wavelength screening could be observed. Although such collisions are highly unlikely in ideal, low-density plasmas, strong scattering is known to modify transport and relaxation properties in dense plasmas10,11. Another possibility to investigate deviations from Debye-like screening is the interaction of X-rays with dense matter under large scattering angles12. Indeed, spectrally resolved X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS)13 is particularly suited for these investigations, as it simultaneously allows for the determination of the plasma conditions and the study of the screening cloud from a single spectrum.
In the following, we report observations of finite-wavelength screening in dense matter probed via spectrally resolved XRTS on laser-driven, shock-compressed plastic (CH) capsules. The strength of the elastic Rayleigh feature is used to further constrain simultaneous measurements of the electron density, temperature and mean ionization obtained from the inelastic Compton feature. We show that agreement between modelled and measured values for the Rayleigh amplitude can only be obtained if finite-wavelength screening is considered.
Finally, recent work41 for highly compressed plastic targets points to attenuation of the probe X-rays through the target as another potential source of error in WR. In the present experiment, the much smaller size and lesser degree of compression of the target at the time of measurement ensures that negligible attenuation. Furthermore, radiation hydrodynamics simulations of the implosion suggest that the driven shell of material yields a fairly uniform density distribution in the region that dominates the scattering21.
Rapid compression experiments performed using a dynamic diamond anvil cell (dDAC) offer the opportunity to study compression rate-dependent phenomena, which provide critical knowledge of the phase transition kinetics of materials. However, direct probing of the structure evolution of materials is scarce and so far limited to the synchrotron based x-ray diffraction technique. Here, we present a time-resolved Raman spectroscopy technique to monitor the structural evolutions in a subsecond time resolution. Instead of applying a shutter-based synchronization scheme in previous work, we directly coupled and synchronized the spectrometers with the dDAC, providing sequential Raman data over a broad pressure range. The capability and versatility of this technique are verified by in situ observation of the phase transition processes of three rapid compressed samples. Not only the phase transition pressures but also the transition pathways are reproduced with good accuracy. This approach has the potential to serve as an important complement to x-ray diffraction applied to study the kinetics of phase transitions occurring on time scales of seconds and above.
Traditional compressed sensing algorithm is used to reconstruct images by iteratively optimizing a small number of measured values. The computation is complex and the reconstruction time is long. The deep learning-based compressed sensing algorithm can greatly shorten the reconstruction time, but the algorithm emphasis is placed on reconstructing the network part mostly. The random measurement matrix cannot measure the image features well, which leads the reconstructed image quality to be improved limitedly. Two kinds of networks are proposed for solving this problem. The first one is ReconNet's improved network IReconNet, which replaces the traditional linear random measurement matrix with an adaptive nonlinear measurement network. The reconstruction quality and anti-noise performance are greatly improved. Because the measured values extracted by the measurement network also retain the characteristics of image spatial information, the image is reconstructed by bilinear interpolation algorithm (Bilinear) and dilate convolution. Therefore a second network USDCNN is proposed. On the BSD500 dataset, the sampling rates are 0.25, 0.10, 0.04, and 0.01, the average peak signal-noise ratio (PSNR) of USDCNN is 1.62 dB, 1.31 dB, 1.47 dB, and 1.95 dB higher than that of MSRNet. Experiments show the average reconstruction time of USDCNN is 0.2705 s, 0.3671 s, 0.3602 s, and 0.3929 s faster than that of ReconNet. Moreover, there is also a great advantage in anti-noise performance. *Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 61872204), the Natural Science Fund of Heilongjiang Province, China (Grant No. F2017029), the Scientific Research Project of Heilongjiang Provincial Universities, China (Grant No. 135109236), and the Graduate Research Project, China (Grant No. YJSCX2019042).
I'm currently testing the Ai beta export to WebP. The exports are blurry and show more artifacts than a highly compressed JPG. I had to go back to Ps, import the assets and export again to WebP for a high quality result.
My conclusion: It's not ready yet for professional use.

Hi Egor and Devs. As I was saying... I saved in WebP format on both Illustrator and Photoshop. The Illustrator WebP (57,8KB) file is bigger than the PNG (12.9KB). To make sure it wasn't the art itself, I opend in Photoshop the WebP saved in Illustrator and saved again as WebP. Photoshop export behaved as usual, with a file size of only 1.31KB.

This connection is widely found in automotive and commercial air conditioning applications. Both male and female halves have a pilot (could be long or short), and the seal is made when the O-ring is compressed. Threads tightly mesh together to form a strong mechanical bond.
