Electric‐Current‐Assisted Nucleation of Zero‐Field Hopfion Rings
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work reports a novel and efficient nucleation protocol for 3D localized topological magnetic solitons‐hopfion rings in chiral magnets using pulsed electric currents. By using Lorentz transmission electron microscopy and topological analysis, we report characteristic features and extraordinary stability of hopfion rings in zero or inverted external

A Study on the Sundials of the Kang Family of Jinju [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2010 In this paper, we investigate the sundials made by the Kang Family of Jinju in the later period of the Joseon dynasty in terms of their characteristics, functions and the manufacturing technique. One of the characteristics of these sundials is that the

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Long-term careers of astronomers with doctoral degrees from prestigious vs. non-prestigious universities [PDF]
Scientometrics, 1991 A comparison has been made of the long-term careers of complete samples of astronomers who earned their PhD's at one prestigious (P) and one nonprestigious (NP) university. The sample sizes are 106 (degrees 1952–88) and 94 (degrees 1966–88) respectively. For both groups, the vast majority are still engaged in some aspect of astronomy or closely related

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Sputtered WS2 films were investigated in terms of their S‐ and O‐concentration depending on deposition power and pre‐sputter time. Chemical and structural investigations were done using EDS, TEM, SEM, AFM, XRD. In general, 20 W films exhibit a wide variation in stoichiometry and structure whereas 80 W films demonstrate a higher S/W ratio than 20 W ...
