Space travel in a high-altitude environment: One more step in human BioSpaceForming

open access: yesBLDE University Journal of Health Sciences, 2018
BACKGROUND: Currently, space programs use sea-level pressures (760 mmHg) and normoxia (21% oxygen fraction) in space capsules. When astronauts need to go for a spacewalk, the pressure has to be reduced to 1/3 that of sea level (240 mmHg).

Morphotropic Phase Boundary in Graft Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride‐co‐Tetrafluoroethylene) With High Curie Temperature

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The first TrFE‐free ferroelectric polymers exhibiting concurrently a morphotropic phase boundary and high Curie temperature are reported through a grafting strategy, which is completely different from previous methods to design MPB by composition and irradiation. This finding offers a cost‐effective solution to decode the long‐standing inverse relation

Origin and Evolution of Massive Black Holes in Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Beyond all reasonable doubt, black holes are commonly found in the nuclei of most normal galaxies. In recent years, dynamical measurements of hole masses have transformed the study of their functioning and evolution. In particular, relating their masses,

Quantifying Strain and Its Effect on Charge Transport in Ge/Si Core/Shell Nanowires

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates strain engineering in Ge/Si core–shell nanowires (CS NWs) by tuning the Ge core‐Si shell dimensions. Polarization‐resolved µ‐Raman and geometrical phase analysis quantify the resulting strain. Electronic transport measurements demonstrate record hole mobilities up to 25 400 cm2/Vs, highlighting these Ge/Si CS NWs as a promising ...

Bidirectional Photoswitching of a Tailored Azobenzene with Red and Far‐Red Light Involving Triplet Sensitization in an Aqueous System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The action spectrum of a tailored azobenzene is shifted toward bio‐optical window through the chemical modification of its singlet and triplet energy levels. Consequently, the bidirectional photo‐switching of azobenzene in physiological conditions is achieved when excited by red and far‐red light, which offers greater tissue penetration.

Existence and Uniqueness of a Transient State for the Coupled Radiative-Conductive Heat Transfer Problem

open access: yes, 2018
This paper deals with existence and uniqueness results for a transient nonlinear radiative-conductive system in three-dimensional case. This system describes the heat transfer for a grey, semi-transparent and non-scattering medium with general boundary ...

Programmable Hydration Pathways Enable Reconfigurable Ionic Thermoelectrics for Energy Harvesting and Thermal‐Tactile Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Programmable hydration pathways enable reconfigurable ionic thermoelectrics in polyquaternium hydrogels. By coupling microscopic solvation, mesoscale water channels, and macroscopic boundary control, hydration‐gated protonics decouples thermopower, response speed, and stability.
