Very Large Telescope Observations of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS. II. From Quiescence to Glow: Dramatic Rise of Ni i Emission and Incipient CN Outgassing at Large Heliocentric Distances

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report Very Large Telescope spectroscopy of the interstellar comet 3I/Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (C/2025 N1), from r _h  ≃ 4.4 to 2.85 au, using X-Shooter (300–550 nm, R  ≃ 3000) and the Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph ...

Flux‐Regulated Crystallization of Perovskites Using Machine Learning‐Predicted Solvent Evaporation Rates for X‐Ray Detectors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By integrating machine learning into flux‐regulated crystallization (FRC), accurate prediction of solvent evaporation rates in real time, improving crystallization control and reducing crystal growth variability by over threefold, is achieved. This enhances the reproducibility and quality of perovskite single crystals, leading to reproducible ...

Spectral Characteristics of Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS from SOAR Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Interstellar objects (ISOs) provide unique insights into the building blocks and conditions of extrasolar planetary systems. The newly discovered object, 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1), represents the third known ISO after 1I/’Oumuamua and 2I/Borisov.

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Hubble Space Telescope Observations of the Interstellar Interloper 3I/ATLAS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present high-angular-resolution observations of the third known interstellar interloper, 3I/ATLAS, from the Hubble Space Telescope. The object is clearly active at 3.8 au preperihelion, showing dust emitted from the hot, Sun-facing side of the nucleus

Mechanical Properties of Architected Polymer Lattice Materials: A Comparative Study of Additive Manufacturing and CAD Using FEM and µ‐CT

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...

Activity of Halley-type Comets 12P/Pons–Brooks and 13P/Olbers from SOHO/SWAN Observations

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The Solar Wind ANisotropies (SWAN) all-sky hydrogen Ly α camera on the Solar and Heliosphere Observatory (SOHO) observed the hydrogen coma of Halley-type comet (HTC) 12P/Pons–Brooks from SOHO’s halo orbit around L1 throughout its 2023–2024 apparition ...

Infrared Nanocrystals for Space Application: Hardness to Irradiations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates infrared HgTe nanocrystals under X‐ray and ion irradiation, revealing remarkable radiation hardness. It uncovers distinct degradation mechanisms and shows that the nanomaterial outperforms integrated electronics. The results position colloidal nanocrystals as promising candidates for resilient space and harsh‐environment ...

Redefining Therapies for Drug‐Resistant Tuberculosis: Synergistic Effects of Antimicrobial Peptides, Nanotechnology, and Computational Design

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)‐loaded nanocarriers provide a multifunctional strategy to combat drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By enhancing intracellular delivery, bypassing efflux pumps, and disrupting bacterial membranes, this platform restores phagolysosome fusion and macrophage function.

Characterization of the Dust and Sodium Tails of Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) from Parker Solar Probe and Amateur Observations

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) reached perihelion on 2020 July 3 at 0.29 au and exhibited a highly structured dust tail. Using a simplified Finson–Probstein model, structures such as striae, observed in the tail in images obtained by the Parker Solar Probe ...
