Kilonova-Targeting Lightcurve Classification for Wide Field Survey Telescope
With the enhancement of the sensitivity of gravitational wave (GW) detectors and capabilities of large survey facilities, such as the Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) and the 2.5 m Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST), we now ...

Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

We derive models of rotating very massive stellar cores with mass ≈10 ^2 –10 ^4 M _⊙ that are marginally stable to the pair-unstable collapse, assuming that the core is isentropic and composed primarily of oxygen.

Fast Radio Bursts: Electromagnetic Counterparts to Extreme Mass-ratio Inspirals
Recent observations discovered that some repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) show a large value and complex variations of Faraday rotation measures (RMs).

This study explores how information processing is distributed between brains and bodies through a codesign approach. Using the “backpropagation through soft body” framework, brain–body coupling agents are developed and analyzed across several tasks in which output is generated through the agents’ physical dynamics.

Continuous Gravitational Waves from Galactic Neutron Stars: Demography, Detectability, and Prospects
We study the prospects for the detection of continuous gravitational signals from normal Galactic neutron stars, i.e., nonrecycled stars. We use a synthetic population generated by evolving stellar remnants in time, according to several models.

Bioinspired Twisted Artificial Muscles with Enhanced Performance for Underwater Applications
A climbing plant‐inspired twisted artificial muscle (TAM) with a braided configuration and seal‐inspired thermal insulation enables high‐performance underwater actuation. Enhanced deformation, reduced heat dissipation, and rapid motion are validated through a bionic ray that exhibits straight and turning motions.

Plants are promising materials for building sustainable and eco‐friendly robots due to their inherent multifunctionality, with actuation playing a crucial role. This article focuses on the physical movements of plants and, from the perspective of actuation characteristics, explores representative plant species and their behaviors, the current state of ...
