A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
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.

Constraining the origin of TeV photons from gamma-ray bursts with delayed MeV-GeV emission formed by interaction with cosmic infrared/microwave background photons [PDF]
It has been suggested that electromagnetic cascade of very high energy gamma-rays from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in the infrared/microwave background can produce delayed MeV-GeV photons. This delay could be caused by the angular spreading effect of the scattered microwave photons or deflection of the secondly pairs due to intergalactic magnetic field ...

Near-infrared and gamma-ray monitoring of TANAMI gamma-ray bright sources [PDF]
Spectral energy distribution and its variability are basic tools for understanding the physical processes operating in active galactic nuclei (AGN). In this paper we report the results of a one-year near infra red (NIR) and optical monitoring of a sample of 22 AGN known to be gamma-ray emitters, aimed at discovering correlations between optical and ...

Unidentifed gamma-ray sources: hunting gamma-ray blazars [PDF]
One of the main scientific objectives of the ongoing Fermi mission is unveiling the nature of the unidentified gamma-ray sources (UGSs). Despite the large improvements of Fermi in the localization of gamma-ray sources with respect to the past gamma-ray missions, about one third of the Fermi-detected objects are still not associated to low energy ...

Correlated variability in the blazar 3C 454.3
The blazar 3C 454.3 was revealed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope to be in an exceptionally high flux state in July 2008. Accordingly, we performed a multi-wavelength monitoring campaign on this blazar using IR and optical observations from the ...

Optical probe of carrier doping by X-ray irradiation in organic dimer Mott insulator $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_{2}$Cu[N(CN)$_{2}]$Cl [PDF]
We investigated the infrared optical spectra of an organic dimer Mott insulator $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_{2}$Cu[N(CN)$_{2}$]Cl, which was irradiated with X-rays.

OSSE Observations of the Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies Arp 220, Mrk 273 and Mrk 231 [PDF]
We report results of soft gamma-ray observations of the ultraluminous infrared galaxies Arp 220, Mrk 273, and Mrk 231 in order to test whether the infrared radiation from these sources originates from buried active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Only upper limits are measured, implying that the emergent soft gamma-ray luminosities are 1-2 orders of magnitude ...
