Playing Hard with Si: Challenges and Opportunities for New Materials in Radiation Therapy Dosimetry

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon has been a cornerstone material of radiation therapy dosimetry for many decades, providing somewhat unchallenged performance. However, there are caveats to its use, requiring complex designs and, often, correction factors to provide accurate measurements.

Overmerging and M/L ratios in phenomenological galaxy formation models

open access: yes, 1999
We show that the discrepancy between the Tully-Fisher relation and the luminosity function predicted by most phenomenological galaxy formation models is mainly due to overmerging of galaxy haloes.

Inflow, Outflow, Yields, and Stellar Population Mixing in Chemical Evolution Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chemical evolution models are powerful tools for interpreting stellar abundance surveys and understanding galaxy evolution. However, their predictions depend heavily on the treatment of inflow, outflow, star formation efficiency (SFE), the stellar ...

Thermochromic Gires‐Tournois Resonators with Tellurium for Battery Thermal Runaway Warning

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A thermochromic Gires‐Tournois (GT) resonator with a thin tellurium layer enables rapid, reversible, and untethered detection of battery surface temperature <80 °C. Exploiting tellurium's refractive index change driven by a thermally induced phase transition between solid and quasi‐liquid states, the GT resonator visualizes heat propagation, providing ...

Modeling the Ages and Chemical Abundances of Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Spectroscopic studies of elliptical galaxies show that their stellar population ages, mean metallicity, and α enhancement traced by [Mg/Fe] all increase with galaxy stellar mass or velocity dispersion.

New chemical evolution analytical solutions including environment effects

open access: yes, 2015
In the last years, more and more interest has been devoted to analytical solutions, including inflow and outflow, to study the metallicity enrichment in galaxies.

Chemical Evolution of Galaxies

open access: yes, 1987
We review some of the present ideas on chemical evolution of irregular galaxies and disks of spiral galaxies. Based on the O abundances in stars and H II regions we present a discussion of the yield; we also discuss the effects of large scale mass flows and of cold dark matter to explain variations in the observed yield. The C, N, O observed abundances

Galaxy simulation with the evolution of grain size distribution [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
We compute the evolution of interstellar dust in a hydrodynamic simulation of an isolated disc galaxy. We newly implement the evolution of full grain size distribution by sampling 32 grid points on the axis of the grain radius. We solve it consistently

Synergistic Microcrack Engineering and Auxetic Metamaterials for Enhanced Sensitivity in Stretchable Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A highly sensitive crack‐based piezoresistive strain sensor is developed using a biaxially pre‐stretched multi‐walled carbon nanotubes/Ecoflex composite and integrated with auxetic metamaterials. Biaxial pre‐stretching improves the sensitivity by 56% compared to the uniaxially pre‐stretched strain sensor.

The Next Generation Deep Extragalactic Exploratory Public (NGDEEP) Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present the Next Generation Deep Extragalactic Exploratory Public (NGDEEP) Survey, a deep slitless spectroscopic and imaging Cycle 1 JWST treasury survey designed to constrain feedback mechanisms in low-mass galaxies across cosmic time. NGDEEP targets
