Ground-Based Gamma Ray Astronomy [PDF]
This paper is the write-up of a rapporteur talk given by the author at the 33rd International Cosmic Ray Conference in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2013. It attempts to summarize results and developments in ground-based gamma-ray observations and instrumentation from among the $\sim300$ submissions to the gamma-ray sessions of the meeting.

Structure and Migration Mechanisms of Oxygen Interstitial Defects in β‐Ga2O3
The structures and diffusion mechanisms of interstitial oxygen in different charge states in β‐Ga2O3 are extensively studied using density functional theory. The results provide a detailed map of the potential energy surface for oxygen interstitials in β‐Ga2O3 and demonstrate how these ions migrate between different rings in the structure.

This study presents a novel, consistent coupling of two‐moment microphysics (i.e., ice mass mixing ratio and number) with bulk ice optical properties, providing improved accuracy in radiative transfer simulations. The parametrisations, based on the mass‐equivalent spherical radius, avoid uncertainties associated with the effective radius by directly ...

Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy [PDF]
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has become an active astrophysical discipline with four confirmed sources of TeV gamma rays, two plerionic supernova remnants (SNRs) and two BL Lac objects (BL Lacs). An additional nine objects (one plerion, three shell-type SNRs, one X-ray binary, and four BL Lacs) have been detected but have not been confirmed by ...

A straightforward technique for fractionating sedimented, same‐sized colloidal particles based on small differences in their surface properties is described. This microfluidic technology method exploits the velocity differentials within a shear‐flow via inducing a phoretic lift above the bottom porous polymer interface that is capable of light‐induced ...

History of gamma-ray telescopes and astronomy [PDF]
Gamma-ray astronomy is devoted to study nuclear and elementary particle astrophysics and astronomical objects under extreme conditions of gravitational and electromagnetic forces, and temperature. Because signals from gamma rays below 1 TeV cannot be recorded on ground, observations from space are required. The photoelectric effect is dominant 30 MeV,

Bridging Experiment and Theory to Reveal Compounds in K–Zn(Cd)–Bi Systems
Theoretically predicted compounds are experimentally realized via the facile hydride route, permitting experimental screening of K–Zn–Bi and “empty” K–Cd–Bi systems. The high‐yield synthesis has enabled a study of crystal and electronic structure, thermal stability, and magnetic properties of previously reported KZnBi, KZn2Bi2, and novel KCdBi and ...
