Is mass loss along the red giant branch of globular clusters sharply peaked? The case of M3
There is a growing evidence that several globular clusters must contain multiple stellar generations, differing in helium content. This hypothesis has helped to interpret peculiar unexplained features in their horizontal branches.

Recent Advances in Wide‐Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cells
Ubiquitous defects predominately account for photo‐instability and open‐circuit voltage losses in wide‐bandgap perovskite solar cells (WBG PSCs). This review comprehensively presents the underlying impact mechanisms, summarizes the advanced optimization strategies across various functional layers and their interfaces to develop efficient and stable WBG

ε-mechanism driven pulsations in hot subdwarf stars with mixed H-He atmospheres
The ε mechanism is a self-excitation mechanism of stellar pulsations which acts in regions where nuclear burning takes place. It has been shown that the ε mechanism can excite pulsations in hot pre-horizontal branch stars before they settle into the ...

A lack of close binaries among hot horizontal branch stars in globular clusters. II. NGC\,2808 [PDF]
Models based on their binary origin have been very successful in reproducing the properties of field subdwarf-B stars, but the observations of their analogues in globular clusters has posed new problems, while the discovery of multiple populations ...

Electric Field Driven Soft Morphing Matter
This study presents soft morphing matter robots that exhibit extremely high morphological adaptability and complex multimodal electric field response. They can undergo large, controlled body deformation and show complex locomotion on different terrains under the manipulation of external electric fields, making a significant step beyond current ...

Phyllotaxis: Leaf arrangement on a horizontal branch and crystallographic borders
Phyllotaxis is an orderly arrangement of leaves on plant stems and branches. The natural reason of this arrangement is that each species based on the habitat conditions in the course of evolution in one way or another solved the problem of optimising the

The Na-O anticorrelation in horizontal branch stars - I. NGC 2808 [PDF]
The chemical composition of horizontal branch (HB) stars might help to clarify the formation history of individual globular clusters (GCs). We studied the Na-O anti-correlation from moderately high resolution spectra for 91 stars on the bimodal HB of NGC
