II. A letter from Mr. Dawes to Mr. Herschel, giving observations of the double stars, 70 Ophiuchi, ; Ursae Majoris, 44 Bootis, Virginis, and Coronae, Castor, Leonis, and Bootis, made during the last and present year. Mr. Dawes is of opinion that the apparent discs are more affected by the aperture of the telescope than by any other circumstance ; and that this is the principal reason why a reflector presents a smaller image of a fixed star than an achromatic of equal illuminating power [PDF]

Flexible Leaf‐Like Fuel Cell From Plasmonic Janus Nanosheet
A flexible leaf‐like fuel cell is fabricated by conductive gold nanowire sponge‐supported plasmonic Janus nanosheet, which can generate a power of 8.93 mW cm⁻2 with less than 10% performance deterioration even being bent or twisted. Further assembly in a tree‐like layout demonstrates omnidirectional light harvesting capability and wind resistance ...

Self‐organized Criticality in Neuromorphic Nanowire Networks With Tunable and Local Dynamics
Memristive nanowire networks (NWNs) are shown to be electrically tunable to a critical state where specific local dynamics evaluated by multiterminal characterization are exploited as feature selection in nonlinear transformation (NLT) tasks.

The separation of Helium gas from natural gas is challenging but highly important. MIL‐116(Ga), a “non‐porous” metal–organic framework is used as a molecular sieve to separate He from CH4. Druse‐like MIL‐116(Ga) particles are integrated into polysulfone mixed matrix membranes.
