The oceans and the Earth's rotation [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988 In the long run, the tidal interaction between the Moon and the solid Earth is mediated by the oceans. It produces the retardation of the Earth's rotation known as ‘tidal friction’. Due to the changing configuration of the continents, it is a non-monotonic function of time.

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

The Influence of Rotation on the Preservation of Heterogeneities in Magma Oceans
Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsUnderstanding the composition of lavas erupted at the surface of the Earth is key to reconstruct the long‐term history of our planet. Recent geochemical analyses of ocean island basalt samples indicate the preservation of ancient mantle heterogeneities ...

All-Depolarized Interferometric Fiber-Optic Gyroscope Based on Optical Compensation
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2014 We propose and demonstrate a novel configuration for depolarized interferometric fiber-optic gyroscopes (IFOGs). This configuration utilizes optical compensation between two orthogonal polarizations for suppressing errors induced by polarization ...

How do earth tides affect astronomers? [PDF]
Earth tides affect astronomical observations of the Earth's rotation in the following two ways: (1) verticals are deflected; and (2) the polar moment of inertia of the Earth is changed causing periodic variations in the rotation rate.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review examines the critical role of neighboring active motifs in heterogeneous catalysts, emphasizing how their synergistic cooperativity can be rationally designed to modulate catalytic properties. The discussion centers on the modulation of electronic and geometric structures, categorizing the catalytic systems into metal‐acid (Brønsted/Lewis ...

Contrasting responses to orbital precession on Titan and Earth
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 Earth and Titan exhibit contrasting atmospheric responses to orbital precession. On Earth, most (water) precipitation falls in low latitudes, and precipitation is enhanced in a hemisphere when perihelion occurs in that hemisphere's summer. On Titan, most
