The Persistent Missing Mass Problem in Planet Formation
The Astrophysical Journal LettersRecent ground-based microlensing surveys suggest that our Galaxy may abound with small free-floating planets, potentially up to ∼21 such planets per star. We explore the implication of such possibility on the mass budget for planet formation.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A distinct semi‐confined inner‐tube chemical vapor deposition geometry enables reproducible, large‐area growth of phase‐pure 2D β′‐In2Se3 from InI + Se precursors. Engineering local vapor transport and optimizing precursor delivery and temperature–time conditions yield uniform continuous films.

MICROLENSING BY KUIPER, OORT, AND FREE-FLOATING PLANETS
Journal of The Korean Astronomical Society, 2016 Microlensing is generally thought to probe planetary systems only out to a few Einstein radii. Microlensing events generated by bound planets beyond about 10 Einstein radii generally do not yield any trace of their hosts, and so would be classified as free floating planets (FFPs).

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A combined experimental–computational framework identifies energy‐dependent laser absorptivity for NiTi in laser powder‐bed fusion, applicable to conduction and transition modes. Single‐track experiments and thermofluid smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations are coupled through inverse analysis of melt pool geometry.

Free-Floating Planets: Not So Surprising
, 2001 We find that free-floating planets can remain bound to a star cluster for much longer than was previously assumed: of the order of the cluster half-mass relaxation timescale as opposed to the crossing-time. This result is based on N-body simulations performed with the new GRAPE-6 special purpose hardware and is important in the context of the ...

Collisions of Free-floating Planets with Evolved Stars in Globular Clusters [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 We estimate the rate of collisions between stars and free-floating planets (FFPs) in globular clusters, in particular the collision of FFPs with red giant branch (RGB) stars. Recent dynamical simulations imply that the density of such objects could exceed million per cubic parsec near the cores of rich globular clusters.

Hybrid Metal–Carbon Ink for Printed Stretchable Temperature Sensors
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.We prepare conductive inks for temperature sensing with silver flakes and carbon or graphite flakes in a silicone elastomer matrix. Silver dominates the temperature‐dependent conductivity, while the carbon filler network ensures the stability of the conductive pathways and retains function under strain.

The coolest 'stars' are free-floating planets
, 2014 We show that the coolest known object that is probably formed in a star-like mode is a free-floating planet. We discovered recently that the free-floating planetary mass object OTS,44 (M9.5, ~12 Jupiter masses, age ~2 Myr) has significant accretion and a substantial disk.

Microlensing Constraints on the Stellar and Planetary Mass Functions
The Astronomical JournalThe mass function (MF) of isolated objects measured by microlensing consists of both a stellar and a planetary component. We compare the microlensing MFs of A. Gould et al. and T. Sumi et al. to other measurements of the MF. The abundance of brown dwarfs
