The relation between black hole spin and star formation in massive star-forming galaxies [PDF]

arXiv
It has always been believed that feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has an important impact on star formation in massive galaxies. Black hole spin is an important physical parameter of AGN. We use a large sample of massive star-forming galaxies to study the effects of AGN on star formation.

Completing the Massive Star Population: Striking Into the Field [PDF]

arXiv, 2011
As a population, field massive stars are relatively enigmatic, and this review attempts to illuminate this sector of the high-mass stellar population, which comprises 20 - 25% of the massive stars in star-forming galaxies. The statistical properties of the field population are vital diagnostics of star formation theory, cluster dynamical evolution, and

The Nature of a Recently Discovered Wolf–Rayet Binary: Archetype of Stripping?

The Astrophysical Journal
LMCe055-1 was recently discovered in a survey for Wolf–Rayets (WRs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, and classified as a WN4/O4, a lower-excitation version of the WN3/O3 class discovered as part of the same survey.

The Effects of Stellar Wind, Rotation Velocity, and Overshoot Parameters on The Evolution of Massive Stars using MESA: Case Study of MPG 324, MPG 355, MPG 682

Spektra: Jurnal Fisika dan Aplikasinya
Massive stars (over 8 solar masses) undergo intricate cosmic journeys. Their evolution, shaped by parameters like stellar wind, rotation velocity, and overshoot, generally includes the pre-main sequence, main sequence, and post-main sequence phases.

Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Modeling the Progenitor Stars of Observed Type IIP Supernovae

The Astrophysical Journal
Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) are thought to originate from the explosion of massive stars >10 M _⊙ . Their luminosity is primarily powered by the explosion energy and the radioactive decay energy of ^56 Co, with the photosphere location regulated by ...

The Wolf–Rayet Content of the Galaxies of the Local Group and Beyond

Galaxies, 2019
Wolf−Rayet stars (WRs) represent the end of a massive star’s life as it is about to turn into a supernova. Obtaining complete samples of such stars across a large range of metallicities poses observational challenges, but presents us with an ...

Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Massive Stars: From the VLT to the ELT [PDF]

arXiv, 2007
New facilities and technologies have advanced our understanding of massive stars significantly over the past 30 years. Here I introduce a new large survey of massive stars using VLT-FLAMES, noting the target fields and observed binary fractions. These data have been used for the first empirical test of the metallicity dependence of the intensity of ...

ErMn6Sn6: A Promising Kagome Antiferromagnetic Candidate for Room‐Temperature Nernst Effect‐Based Thermoelectrics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work investigates the Nernst effect in the Kagome magnet ErMn6Sn6 which exhibits both topological and anomalous Nernst effects with the anomalous Nernst coefficient reaching 1.71 µV K⁻¹ at 300 K. This value surpasses that of most canted antiferromagnetic materials, making ErMn6Sn6 a promising candidate for advancing thermoelectric devices based on
