Cherenkov radiation by particles traversing the background radiatio n [PDF]
High energy particles traversing the Universe through the cosmic microwave backgroung radiation can, in principle, emit Cherenkov radiation. It is shown that the energy threshold for this radiation is extremely high and its intensity would be too low due

Current status and future perspectives of multi‐modal bacteria‐based cancer therapies
Bacteria exhibit inherent tumour‐targeting capabilities, particularly thriving in hypoxic tumour microenvironments (TMEs) and activating potent anti‐tumour immune responses through pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and immunomodulation.

Quasi‐Constant Time Gap in Multiple Rings of Elves
Abstract We present evidence that the time delay between the multiple rings of elves is not caused by the ground reflection of the electromagnetic pulse produced by intracloud lightning. To investigate temporal differences of multi‐elves, we analyzed data from four storms occurring at various times and distances from the Pierre Auger Observatory in ...

Thermionics in Topological Materials
Thermionics is one of the fundamental energy conversion mechanisms in solid state systems. Recent development in topological materials opens new avenues in developing thermionic systems and devices. Due to the linear energy dispersion and topological protection of charge transport, these new materials are promising candidates for high efficiency ...

Playing Hard with Si: Challenges and Opportunities for New Materials in Radiation Therapy Dosimetry
Silicon has been a cornerstone material of radiation therapy dosimetry for many decades, providing somewhat unchallenged performance. However, there are caveats to its use, requiring complex designs and, often, correction factors to provide accurate measurements.

Quantum Cherenkov radiation and noncontact friction [PDF]
We present a number of arguments to demonstrate that a quantum analog of Cherenkov effect occurs when two dispersive objects are in relative motion. Specifically we show that two semi-infinite plates experience friction beyond a threshold velocity which, in their center-of-mass frame, is the phase speed of light within their medium.

Information Technologies on High-Energy Astrophysics: Cosmic Ray Anisotropy using HAWC Observatory [PDF]
The detection of astroparticles, specially at high energies (>100 GeV), requires special techniques and instruments (telescopes or observatories), for example, those that use the Water Cherenkov radiation technique.

Asymmetric Cherenkov acoustic reverse in topological insulators
A general phenomenon of the Cherenkov radiation known in optics or acoustics of conventional materials is a formation of a forward cone of, respectively, photons or phonons emitted by a particle accelerated above the speed of light or sound in those ...
