Chemical AI in the Limelight: The Contribution of Photochromic Materials and Oscillatory Chemical Reactions

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Photochromic compounds are versatile ingredients for the development of Chemical AI. When they are embedded in a tight microenvironment, they become Markov blankets. They are also valuable for processing Boolean and Fuzzy logic. They contribute to neuromorphic engineering in wetware based on opto‐chemical signals exchanged with oscillatory chemical ...

Stepless shape morphing polymer

open access: yesSmartMat, Volume 4, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Reversible stepless discretionary morphing polymer is produced by simply training commercial ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) via thermal treatment associated stretching. The key issue is that the crystals of UHMWPE memorize lots of temporary shapes as independent switching phases.

Microlensing-Based Studies of the Unresolved Structure of AGNs and the Composition of Lensing Galaxies

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
Multiple images of quasars formed by gravitational lensing are typically seen through the lensing galaxy. The granulation of the galaxy in stars or other compact objects induces local (‘microscopic’) but strong fluctuations in the gravitational potential

Resolving the discrepancy between X-ray and gravitational lensing mass measurements for clusters of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We present a detailed comparison of mass measurements for clusters of galaxies using ASCA and ROSAT X-ray data and constraints from strong and weak gravitational lensing.

Mimicking Symmetry‐Breaking Einstein Ring by Optical Lens

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This article uses an optical lens to emulate the gravitational lensing effect and observe the Einstein ring (ER) patterns. The symmetry‐breaking ER, i.e., Einstein cross, is observed utilizing a rotation‐symmetry‐breaking hemi‐ellipsoid lens. Deformed Einstein cross patterns induced by noncollinearly alignment of the light source–lens–observer are ...

Weak Gravitational Lensing of the CMB [PDF]

open access: yesPhys.Rept. 429 (2006) 1-65, 2006
Weak gravitational lensing has several important effects on the cosmic microwave background (CMB): it changes the CMB power spectra, induces non-Gaussianities, and generates a B-mode polarization signal that is an important source of confusion for the signal from primordial gravitational waves.

Gravitational Lenses

open access: yes, 1999
The purpose of these lecture notes is to describe the gravitational lens effects in different astrophysical contexts. These notes are voluntarily focused on the fundamental mechanisms and the basic concepts that are useful to describe these effects. The observational consequences are presented in more details in accompanying notes by Y. Mellier.

Rough and Tough: How Particle Surface Roughness Affects Liquid Marble Formation and Stability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of particle surface roughness on the formation and stability of liquid marbles using well‐defined colloidal supraparticles as model systems. Increasing surface roughness enhances the interfacial contact angle, improves mechanical stability by increasing deformation resistance upon impact, and enables liquid marble ...
