Cosmic ray driven galactic winds [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2016
Galactic winds constitute a primary feedback process in the ecology and evolution of galaxies. They are ubiquitously observed and exhibit a rich phenomenology, whose origin is actively investigated both theoretically and observationally. Cosmic rays have

Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18: A New Generation Radioprotector Protecting Human Erythrocytes Against Multiple Biochemical Damage Modes Upon Gamma Irradiation, Identifying It as a Scavenger of Short‐ and Long‐Lived Radicals

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18 demonstrates strong radioprotective properties as a scavenger of both short‐ and long‐lived radicals. The study reveals protection of human erythrocytes from γ‐radiation–induced biochemical damage via post‐irradiation removal of primary and secondary reactive oxidants, supported by pulse radiolysis kinetics.

Revisiting metastable cosmic string breaking

Journal of High Energy Physics
Metastable cosmic strings appear in models of new physics with a two-step symmetry breaking G → H → 1, where π 1(H) ≠ 0 and π 1(G) = 0. They decay via the monopole-antimonopole pair creation inside. Conventionally, the breaking rate has been estimated by

Prediction of galactic cosmic ray intensity variation for a few (up to 10-12) years ahead on the basis of convection-diffusion and drift model [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2005
We determine the dimension of the Heliosphere (modulation region), radial diffusion coefficient and other parameters of convection-diffusion and drift mechanisms of cosmic ray (CR) long-term variation, depending on particle energy, the level of solar

The Promise of Solid Lubricants for a Sustainable Future

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Lubricants are vital for technology, saving energy and resources. The industry seeks sustainable solutions beyond fossil fuels. Solid lubricants offer extremely low friction and reduce environmental impact, especially in harsh conditions. Can these solids truly replace liquid lubricants, or are they limited to extreme applications?

Radiation Dosimetry Estimations in the Venusian Atmosphere during Different Periods of Solar Activity

Universe, 2022
The new space era has expanded the exploration of other planets of our solar system. In this work, radiation quantities are estimated in the Venusian atmosphere using the software tool DYASTIMA/DYASTIMA-R, such as the energy deposit and the ambient dose ...

Hidden Cosmic-Ray Accelerators as an Origin of TeV-PeV Cosmic Neutrinos. [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2015
The latest IceCube data suggest that the all-flavor cosmic neutrino flux may be as large as 10^{-7}  GeV cm^{-2} s^{-1} sr^{-1} around 30 TeV. We show that, if sources of the TeV-PeV neutrinos are transparent to γ rays with respect to two-photon ...

Precision‐Engineered Plasmonic Nanostar Arrays for High‐Performance SERS Sensing

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Highly ordered and dose‐controlled arrays of gold nanodiscs are created using the dots‐on‐the‐fly EBL technique and subsequently converted into nanostar arrays. This technique unlocks the reproducible and robust fabrication of highly efficient SERS substrates. Abstract Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful tool

On the Source Contribution to the Galactic Diffuse Gamma Rays above 398 TeV Detected by the Tibet ASγ Experiment

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Potential contribution from gamma-ray sources to the Galactic diffuse gamma rays observed above 100 TeV (sub-PeV energy range) by the Tibet AS γ experiment is an important key to interpreting recent multimessenger observations.

Analytical Model for Estimating the Zenith Angle Dependence of Terrestrial Cosmic Ray Fluxes

PLoS ONE, 2016
A new model called “PHITS-based Analytical Radiation Model in the Atmosphere (PARMA) version 4.0” was developed to facilitate instantaneous estimation of not only omnidirectional but also angular differential energy spectra of cosmic ray fluxes anywhere ...
