A 3D-structured sperm selection device is presented that achieves both high selectivity and high yield via thousands of parallel channels. The device significantly outperforms the best clinical practice by selecting ∼100 000 of higher-quality sperm.

A neutron identification circuit is described which has a threshold corresponding to a neutron energy of about 350 kev (50–60 kev equivalent electron energy). The photomultiplier is operated under conditions of space-charge saturation. Selection of pulses due to recoil protons or heavier particles is accomplished by allowing the initial negative-going spike of the space-charge-limited pulse from the last dynode to activate a trigger circuit, the output of which is used to gate the subsequent positive portion of the dynode pulse for presentation to a simple diode discriminator. Separation of pulses due to recoil protons and to α particles is also possible to some extent.The circuit is applied to an investigation of fast-neutron interactions in stilbene. For the case of 14.85-Mev neutrons it is shown that the majority of pulses of low light-output are due to α particles produced by neutron interactions with the carbon and that structure is apparent in this α-particle spectrum. α-Particle groups due to the C12(n, α)Be9 reaction and to the breakup of C12 from its excited states at 7.656 Mev and 9.63 or 10.1 Mev are identified.

We utilise ultrabroadband two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy to map out pathways of energy flow in LHCII across the entire visible region. In addition to the well-established, low-lying chlorophyll Qy bands, our results reveal additional pathways of energy relaxation on the higher-lying excited states involving the S2 energy levels of carotenoids, including ultrafast carotenoid-to-chlorophyll energy transfer on 90-150 fs timescales.
