Atmospheric Cerenkov astronomy of cataclysmic variables & other potential gamma ray sources [PDF]

, 1993
Recent developments in the application of the atmospheric Cerenkov technique to 7-ray astronomy are reviewed here. These include new methods of signal to noise enhancement and the increasing diversity of stellar systems positively identified as Very High

Letter to Nature: An ultra-relativistic outflow from a neutron star accreting gas from a companion. [PDF]

, 2004
Collimated relativistic outflows—also known as jets—are amongst the most energetic phenomena in the Universe. They are associated with supermassive black holes in distant active galactic nuclei1, accreting stellar-mass black holes and neutron stars in ...

Engineered Nanoplatforms Targeting Activated Hepatic Stellate Cells for Liver Fibrosis Therapy via TGF‐β Axis Inhibition and Ferroptosis Induction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
FeS‐VA@lanifibranor (FVL), an activated hepatic stellate cell (aHSC)‐targeted nanoplatform comprising vitamin A‐functionalized two‐dimensional iron sulfide nanosheets and lanifibranor, is engineered for precision therapy of liver fibrosis. FVL suppresses the TGF‐β signaling pathway by inhibiting SMAD2/3 phosphorylation and induces ferroptosis in aHSCs,

Equilibria and oscillations of magnetised neutron stars

, 2010
We investigate equilibrium configurations and oscillation spectra of neutron stars,modelled as rotating magnetised fluid bodies in Newtonian gravity. We also explorethe idea that these model neutron stars could have dynamics analogous to rigid-bodyfree ...

Sometimes They Come Back: Pulsations in A 0538–66 at 69 ms Rediscovered with NICER

The Astrophysical Journal
We report on Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) X-ray observations of the Be X-ray binary A 0538–66 located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Fast pulsations (69 ms) in this source were discovered in 1980 during a bright outburst in which it

Does High-density or Mass Help Star Clusters Produce X-Ray Binaries in Star-forming Galaxies?

The Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract It is now widely accepted that many X-ray binaries (XRBs) form in compact star clusters. Therefore, it follows that there may be a link between the properties of star clusters and the production of XRBs. We study the masses and densities of compact clusters with different ages found in the merging Antennae galaxies and in the ...

Ion‐Reconfigurable “N”‐Shaped Antiambipolar Behavior in Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A unique N‐shaped negative differential transconductance (NDT) characteristics is demonstrated in single‐polymer organic electrochemical transistors through a sequential doping–redox–doping process driven by iodide ions. This redox‐driven mechanism enables low‐voltage, ion‐controlled reconfigurability and tunable current modulation, allowing seamless ...

Ongoing and Post-mass-transfer Binaries: A Living Catalog and Unified Review of Binary Mass-transfer Products

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Mass transfer is arguably the most defining interaction in binary stellar systems, yet many aspects of its physics remain poorly understood, from stability to endpoints and observable products.

Thermal‐Driven Diode Polarity Switching From Competing Helical Superconducting States in WTe2/α‐Fe2O3 Heterostructures

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A Nb‐proximitized Josephson junction based on a WTe2/α‐Fe2O3 heterostructure exhibits a robust superconducting diode effect with programmable polarity. The diode direction can be trained by magnetic fields and switched by temperature cycling, revealing tunable finite‐momentum pairing states and competing superconducting states in symmetry‐broken ...

Discovery of a New Spectral Transition in Swift J0243.6+6124 in the Sub-Eddington Regime

The Astrophysical Journal
We have conducted a detailed spectral analysis of Swift J0243.6+6124 in its sub-Eddington regime, as observed by Insight-HXMT and NICER during a series of outbursts including the giant one in 2018, and discovered a new transition at L _t  ∼ 4.5 × 10 ^37 ...
