Thermal and Nonthermal Emission from a Peculiar Long-duration GRB 211211A

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Long-duration GRB 211211A that lacks a supernova emission even down to very stringent limits at such a low redshift z = 0.076 and is associated with kilonova emission, suggests that its physical origin is from a binary compact star merger. By reanalyzing

Neutrino and cosmic-ray emission from multiple internal shocks in gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2014
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are short-lived, luminous explosions at cosmological distances, thought to originate from relativistic jets launched at the deaths of massive stars.

Mechanically Robust and Ion‐Conductive Polyampholyte Elastomers via Dimeric Ionic Bonding

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new class of polyampholyte ionic elastomers balancing both high mechanical strength and ionic conductivity by utilizing a novel precipitation method to create ionic dimers. The resulting elastomers exhibited strong mechanical performance and excellent ion mobility, making them ideal for applications in flexible electronics ...

The Revival of White Holes as Small Bangs

, 2011
Black holes are extremely dense and compact objects from which light cannot escape. There is an overall consensus that black holes exist and many astronomical objects are identified with black holes. White holes were understood as the exact time reversal

The birth of black holes: neutron star collapse times, gamma-ray bursts and fast radio bursts [PDF]

, 2014
Recent observations of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) suggest that binary neutron star (NS) mergers can create highly magnetised, millisecond NSs. Sharp cut-offs in X-ray afterglow plateaus of some SGRBs hint at the gravitational collapse of these ...

LOCALIZATION OF GAMMA-RAY BURSTS USING THE FERMI GAMMA-RAY BURST MONITOR [PDF]

, 2014
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has detected over 1400 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) since it began science operations in 2008 July. We use a subset of over 300 GRBs localized by instruments such as Swift, the Fermi Large Area Telescope, INTEGRAL, and ...

Implantable Microarray Patch: Engineering at the Nano and Macro Scale for Sustained Therapeutic Release via Synthetic Biodegradable Polymers

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...
