Nano‐Topography Enhanced Topological‐Cell‐Analysis in Radiation‐Therapy
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Radiotherapy, a treatment that implies exposition of cells to radiation, offers promise to treat cancer. Here, it is hypothesized that the nanoscale details of a scaffold can amplify the response of cells to radiation, measured through topological variables, providing ways to assess the efficacy of Radiotherapy treatment.

Astronomy and astronomers in Jules Verne's novels [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Almost all the "Voyages Extraordinaires" written by Jules Verne refer to astronomy. In some of them, astronomy is even the leading theme. However, Jules Verne was basically not learned in science. His knowledge of astronomy came from contemporaneous popular publications and discussions with specialists among his friends or his family.

Heterogeneous Nanopore Arrays – Selective Modification of Nanopores Embedded in a Membrane
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Biological processes rely on the concerted action of channels with different functionalities embedded in the same membrane. Inspired by nature, heterogeneous nanopore arrays are prepared where two nanopores are connected in parallel and function as two different elements of an ionic circuit: a diode and a resistor.

Recommendations for Planning Inclusive Astronomy Conferences [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The Inclusive Astronomy (IA) conference series aims to create a safe space where community members can listen to the experiences of marginalized individuals in astronomy, discuss actions being taken to address inequities, and give recommendations to the community for how to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion in astronomy. The first IA was held in

Data as a Research Infrastructure - CDS, the Virtual Observatory, Astronomy, and beyond [PDF]
, 2018 The situation of data sharing in astronomy is positioned in the current general context of a political push towards, and rapid development of, scientific data sharing. Data is already one of the major infrastructures of astronomy, thanks to the data and service providers and to the International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA).

X- and Gamma-ray Studies of Cas A: Exposing Core Collapse to the Core
, 2003 In this review of X-ray and gamma-ray observations of Cas A, evidence is discussed that Cas A was a Type Ib supernova of a Wolf-Rayet star with a main sequence mass between 22-25 Msun, that exploded after stellar wind loss had reduced its mass to ~6 Msun.
