Thin‐film lithium niobate photonics: Frontiers in millimeter‐wave and terahertz generation and integrated applications

open access: yesInfoScience, EarlyView.
With the advancement of 6G communications, high‐precision radar, and advanced imaging technologies, there is a growing demand for compact, high‐performance light sources capable of generating high‐frequency radio waves (millimeter‐wave and terahertz waves). This article systematically introduces how to efficiently generate these high‐frequency waves on

Diffusive Instabilities in Dusty Disks: Linear Growth and Nonlinear Breakdown

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We revisit the diffusive instability in dusty disks that arises when the dust mass diffusivity and/or viscosity decrease sufficiently steeply with increasing dust density. Our updated model includes an incompressible viscous gas that responds azimuthally

Ray-tracing Simulations and Spectral Models of X-Ray Radiation in Dusty Media

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Dust can play an important role in shaping the X-ray spectra and images of astrophysical sources. In this work we report on the implementation of dust in the ray-tracing platform RefleX .

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.

General Implicit Runge–Kutta Integrators for Multifluid Gas–Dust Aerodynamic Drag

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The integration of aerodynamic drag is a fundamental step in simulating dust dynamics in hydrodynamical simulations. We propose a novel integration scheme, designed to be compatible with Strang splitting techniques, which allows for the straightforward ...

A Catalog of 71 Coronal Line Galaxies in MaNGA: [Ne v] Is an Effective AGN Tracer

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Despite the importance of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in galaxy evolution, accurate AGN identification is often challenging, as common AGN diagnostics can be confused by contributions from star formation and other effects (e.g., Baldwin–Phillips ...

Visible, near‐, and thermal infrared spectra of asteroid Bennu samples: Relationship to and implications for remote sensing of carbonaceous asteroids

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Remote spectroscopy is used to characterize the mineralogy and infer the history of planetary bodies. Carbonaceous asteroids, such as B‐type (101955) Bennu, represent the earliest stages of planet formation. B types have a blue (negative) spectral slope and comprise <5% of asteroids.

Toward a General Theory of Grain Alignment and Disruption by Radiative Torques and Magnetic Relaxation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We generalize the magnetically enhanced radiative torque (MRAT) theory for astrophysical environments described by a dimensionless parameter U /( n _1 T _2 ) with U the radiation strength, n _1  =  n _H /(10 cm ^−3 ) the normalized hydrogen density, and ...

Dust dynamic pressure and magnetopause displacement: reasons for non-detection [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
In a recent paper, Treumann and Baumjohann (2011) propose that the contribution of dust particles to the solar wind dynamic pressure can cause large compressions of the Earth's magnetopause and suggest that this occurs when Earth encounters ...

LifeMet: Report on the 2024–2025 meteorite recovery expedition in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica for the study of microbe–meteorite interactions

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Since the discovery of nine meteorites near the Yamato mountains in 1969, Antarctica has been recognized as a superb location for meteorite recovery. While Antarctic recovery expeditions prioritize meteorite preservation for mineralogical and planetary studies, meteorites are not typically collected for biological applications.
