The potential gains of NOMA were evaluated in a satellite system with heterogeneous receivers, after considering the use of specific DVB‐S2X MODCODs, along with the impact of non‐linearities. It was concluded that a judicious power allocation in NOMA, jointly optimized with the IBO of the PAs, can yield significant sum‐rate gains.

2D Assemblies Based on a Tetraphenylethylene D,L‐Cyclic Peptide Scaffold
A new scaffold based on four nanotube‐forming cyclic peptide units attached to a tetraphenylethene (TPE) core with pH‐dependent self‐assembly that provides light‐emitting 2D nanosheets with controlled thickness is described. Abstract Two dimensional (2D) materials and aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) fluorophores have recently gained attention due to
