The purpose of astronomy [PDF]
Vistas Astron. 39 (1995) 315, 1995 This is a presentation of the purpose of astronomy in the context of modern society. After exposing two misconceptions about astronomy, I detail its role in five domains, certified knowledge, incorporated abilities, innovations, collective goods, and popular science; with each domain is associated an institution, an incentive, and a method of ...

Perspectives of high-energy neutrino astronomy
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2006 This work discusses the perspectives to observe fluxes of high energy astrophysical neutrinos with the planned km3 telescopes. On the basis of the observations of GeV and TeV gamma-rays, and of ultra high energy cosmic rays, it is possible to construct well motivated predictions that indicate that the discovery of such fluxes is probable.

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Researchers investigate black phosphorous (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.

Highlights from the Telescope Array
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016 The Telescope Array measures the properties of ultra high energy cosmic ray induced extensive air showers. We do this using a variety of techniques including an array of scintillator detectors to sample the footprint of the air shower when it reaches the

Chiral algebras, localization and surface defects
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Four-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 superconformal quantum field theories contain a subsector carrying the structure of a chiral algebra. Using localization techniques, we show for the free hypermultiplet that this structure can be accessed directly

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines the mechanical properties of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS)‐based lattices, analyzing 36 architectures in elastic and plastic regimes. It evaluates the applicability of beam‐based scaling laws to TPMS lattices. Rigidity arises from the alignment of members with the load direction and solid regions preventing rotation.

Soft bootstrap and effective field theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 The soft bootstrap program aims to construct consistent effective field theories (EFT’s) by recursively imposing the desired soft limit on tree-level scattering amplitudes through on-shell recursion relations.

Baryogenesis in a parity solution to the strong CP problem
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 Space-time parity can solve the strong CP problem and introduces a spontaneously broken SU(2) R gauge symmetry. We investigate the possibility of baryogenesis from a first-order SU(2) R phase transition similar to electroweak baryogenesis.

Universal Superconductivity in FeTe and All‐Iron‐Based Ferromagnetic Superconductor Heterostructures
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The first all‐iron‐based ferromagnetic superconductor heterostructures with high‐temperature superconductivity and strong ferromagnetism aredemonstrated. From this, it is discovered that FeTe becomes universallysuperconducting with a minute level of cationic impurities through doping ordiffusion from neighboring layers, suggesting its ground state can ...
