Compliant Robotics in Space: A Prospective Review of Soft and Deformable Systems for Space Missions
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Compliant robots are increasingly becoming integral to space exploration due to their adaptability, flexibility, and lightweight design. This article reviews categories such as soft, reconfigurable, and hyper‐redundant robots and their evolving role in enhancing space missions.

A DIVERSITY OF PROGENITORS AND HISTORIES FOR ISOLATED SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]
, 2012 We analyze a suite of 33 cosmological simulations of the evolution of Milky-Way-mass galaxies in low-density environments. Our sample spans a broad range of Hubble types at z = 0, from nearly bulgeless disks to bulge-dominated galaxies.

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

Radial Metallicity Distribution Breaks at Corotation Radius in Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
, 2012 We analyzed the relation between the corotation radii and the galactic radii at which breaks or changes of slope of the metallicity gradients occur in spiral galaxies.

On the Age Distribution of Classical Cepheids in the Galaxy
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We revisit the problem of the positive correlation between age and Galactocentric distance seen in Galactic Classical Cepheids, which at first sight may seem counter‐intuitive in the context of inside‐out galaxy formation. To explain it, we use the Besançon Galaxy Model and a simulation of star particles in the Galactic disc coupled with ...

The SWELLS survey - V. A Salpeter stellar initial mass function in the bulges of massive spiral galaxies [PDF]
, 2012 Recent work has suggested that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is not universal, but rather is correlated with galaxy stellar mass, stellar velocity dispersion or morphological type.

The Dynamics of the Spiral Galaxy M81 [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1978 The spiral galaxy M81 is a challenging object for testing a density-wave theory. It is of large angular size and favourably inclined to the line of sight; radio observations of neutral atomic hydrogen showing well defined spiral arms with noncircular motions are available (Rots and Shane 1975), and there is evidence from surface photometry for density ...

Non‐thermal plasma decontamination of microbes: a state of the art
Biotechnology Progress, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract Microbial decontamination is a critical concern in various sectors, from healthcare to food processing. Traditional decontamination methods, while effective to a degree, present limitations in terms of environmental impact, efficiency, and potential harm to the target material. This review investigates the emerging realm of non‐thermal plasma (

Spiral arm pitch angle and galactic shear rate in N-body simulations of disc galaxies [PDF]
, 2012 Spiral galaxies are observed to exhibit a range of morphologies, in particular in the shape of spiral arms. A key diagnostic parameter is the pitch angle, which describes how tightly wound the spiral arms are.
