The importance of sub-meter-scale snow roughness on conductive heat flux of Arctic sea ice

Journal of Glaciology
The conductive heat flux through the snow and ice is a critical component of the mass and energy budgets in the Arctic sea ice system. We use high horizontal resolution (3–15 cm) measurements of snow topography to explore the impacts of sub-meter-scale ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Heat Transfer of Water Flow Boiling in Nanostructured Open Microchannels

Energies, 2023
In recent years, the open microchannel has drawn increasing interest, but severe local dryout limited the heat transfer capability of flow boiling. It was anticipated that nanostructures with exceptional capillary wicking abilities would overcome this ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Experimental Study on Thermal Performance of a Bent Copper-Water Heat Pipe

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2020
Vapor-liquid phase change is regarded as an efficient cooling method for high-heat-flux electronic components. The copper-water bent heat pipes are particularly suited to the circumstances of confined space or misplaced heat and cold sources for high ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Flow boiling heat transfer in a rectangular copper microchannel

Journal of Thermal Engineering, 2016
Flow boiling characteristics of de-ionized water were tested experimentally in a rectangular copper single microchannel of 1 mm width, 0.39 mm height and 62 mm length. De-ionized water was supplied to the microchannel at constant inlet temperature (89°C)

Modeling of heat flux on the main limiter in EAST

Nuclear Fusion
Heat flux on plasma-facing components is one of the key issues in tokamak operation. In EAST, severe damages occurred on the main limiters due to high heat loads limit high-power and long-pulse operation in recent campaigns.

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...
