An infrared flash contemporaneous with the γ-rays of GRB 041219a [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2005
The explosion that results in a cosmic gamma-ray burst (GRB) is thought to produce emission from two physical processes: the central engine gives rise to the high-energy emission of the burst through internal shocking, and the subsequent interaction of the flow with the external environment produces long-wavelength afterglows.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

LABORATORY INVESTIGATION OF X-RAY PHOTOLYSIS OF ETHANOL ICE AND ITS IMPLICATION ON ASTROPHYSICAL ENVIRONMENTS

open access: yesRevista UniVap, 2023
Here we present experimental results on the irradiation of ethanol ice (CH3CH2OH) by broadband soft X-rays to simulate the effect processing of organic-rich astrophysical ices by space radiation.

Subdiffractional focusing and guiding of polaritonic rays in a natural hyperbolic material [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Uniaxial materials whose axial and tangential permittivities have opposite signs are referred to as indefinite or hyperbolic media. In such materials, light propagation is unusual leading to novel and often non-intuitive optical phenomena. Here we report

Consolidate Overview of Ribonucleic Acid Molecular Dynamics: From Molecular Movements to Material Innovations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations are advancing the study of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and RNA‐conjugated molecules. These developments include improvements in force fields, long‐timescale dynamics, and coarse‐grained models, addressing limitations and refining methods.

Heat transparent high intensity high efficiency solar cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
An improved solar cell design is described. A surface of each solar cell has a plurality of grooves. Each groove has a vertical face and a slanted face that is covered by a reflecting metal.

Hot accretion flow in black hole binaries: a link connecting X-rays to the infrared [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Multiwavelength observations of Galactic black hole transients have opened a new path to understanding the physics of the innermost parts of the accr etion flows. While the processes giving rise to their X-ray continuum have been studied extensively, the

Gamma-ray burster counterparts - Infrared

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1987
The discovery of an IR counterpart to a gamma-ray burster (GRB) would be a big step forward in understanding this enigmatic phenomenon. A program of searching for IR emission from the smallest GRB source regions has been initiated. Seven boxes have been searched with ground-based telescopes at a wavelength of 2.2 microns and 23 with the IRAS data base ...

Mechanical Behavior and Microstructural Changes Associated with Tensile Deformation above the Martensite Start Temperature during Quenching and Subsequent Partitioning of a Low‐Alloy 37SiB6 Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new experimental setup, incorporating digital image correlation and infrared thermography in combination with inductive‐conductive heating for precise temperature control, is used to analyze the mechanical behavior and microstructural changes of sheet metal under complex thermomechanical test conditions that represent quench and partitioning ...

Coherent hard x-rays from attosecond pulse train-assisted harmonic generation

open access: yes, 2007
High-order harmonic generation from atomic systems is considered in the crossed fields of a relativistically strong infrared laser and a weak attosecond-pulse train of soft x-rays.
