From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Comparative Analysis of the Chaotic Behavior of a Five-Dimensional Fractional Hyperchaotic System with Constant and Variable Order

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
A five-dimensional hyperchaotic system is a dynamical system with five state variables that exhibits chaotic behavior in multiple directions. In this work, we incorporated a 5D hyperchaotic system with constant- and variable-order Caputo and the Caputo ...

Unnatural Causes: Cryptocurrencies, Carbon Credits, and the rise of Neoliberalism from Below

open access: yesEconomic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Klima is a carbon‐backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021 ...

Micro‐transitions and work identity: The case of academic entrepreneurs

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This paper examines how academic entrepreneurs—scientists who found research‐based startups while remaining in academia—construct and sustain their professional identities amid frequent transitions between academic and entrepreneurial roles.

Molecular Friction Trumps Viscosity in Angstrofluidic Transport

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Single‐file transport through sub‐1 nm graphene nanopore and carbon nanotube is investigated using molecular dynamics and ergodic trajectory sampling. The study shows that confinement geometry and wall‐fluid interaction strength govern molecular mobility, allowing atomistic motion to be translated into a continuum‐based resistance coefficient for ...

Influence of natural fibers on physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the influence of natural fibers on the physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete, in comparison with conventional polypropylene fibers used in cement composites. The fibers were characterized by FTIR and TGA/DSC to assess their composition and thermal stability, and FTIR was also performed after ...

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

Threshold Currents of Vacuum Arcs With Tungsten and Copper Cathodes

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of an experimental study aimed at determining the threshold current for triggering a vacuum arc discharge, the probability of arc ignition and the average arc operation time depending on the current for tungsten and copper electrodes.
