The stellar halos of Milky Way type galaxies in the EAGLE simulations [PDF]

, 2017
The stellar halo component of a galaxy contains a wealth of valuable information on the host galaxy's formation history. As the diffuse outskirts of galaxies which have been built up through hierarchical assembly, their content and structure is directly tied to the material that was accreted onto them over the course of the galaxy's life.

Expanding Transparent Covalently Attached Liquid‐Like Surfaces for Icephobic Coatings with Broad Substrate Compatibility

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study introduces an approach for creating liquid‐like slippery surfaces (LLS) on various substrates. An epoxy‐silicon (EpSi) coating is applied, plasma‐activated, and immersed in an organosilane solution, forming siloxane chains. The resulting LLS exhibits ultra‐low ice adhesion, high transparency, self‐cleaning, and anti‐staining properties ...

Polystyrene Nanoplastic‐Mercury Complexes Detection by Electrolyte‐Gated Carbon Nanotube Field‐Effect Transistor‐Based Sensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
An electrolyte‐gated field effect transistor sensor is used to detect an environmentally relevant nanoplastic model. The sensor identifies the presence of polystyrene nanoplastics in water dispersions without significantly altering its performance in the presence of mercury on the nanoplastics’ surface, indicating that it may be utilized in ...

Evolution of the Milky Way halo by accretion of dwarf satellite galaxies

, 2011
Within the Cold Dark Matter scenario the hierarchical merging paradigm is the natural result to form massive galactic halos by the minor mergers of sub-halos and, by this, inherently their stellar halo.

Functionalized Antifouling Polymer Brushes for Biospecific Surfaces

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Modern biosensors offer high sensitivity but often struggle with long‐term stability and selectivity for specific targets. Antifouling polymer brushes help enhance both stability and selectivity. In this review, we compare recent antifouling coatings, their design parameters, and how they are integrated with biorecognition elements for improved ...

Leveraging Design of Experiments to Unravel the Amplification Mechanism of Single‐Molecule Wide‐Field Biosensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Detecting single molecules on large interfaces is challenging due to minimal perturbations on the sensing surface. Some biological systems achieve this feat using amplification mechanisms, but their molecular foundations remain unclear. To investigate, a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach examines how pH and ionic strength in conditioning solutions ...

GelMA/AgNWs Hydrogel Combined with Electrical Stimulation Effectively Promotes Skin Wound Healing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The doped AgNWs in GelMA hydrogel prevent the wound from being infected and introduce the electrical field into the wound region. COMSOL simulation guides the introduced electric field to be conducive to promoting cell migration and proliferation. Thus, the GelMA/AgNWs hydrogel combined with ES effectively accelerated the healing process of skin wounds.

Ursa Major III/UNIONS 1: The Darkest Galaxy Ever Discovered?

The Astrophysical Journal
The recently discovered stellar system Ursa Major III/UNIONS 1 (UMa3/U1) is the faintest known Milky Way satellite to date. With a stellar mass of ${16}_{-5}^{+6}\,{M}_{\odot }$ and a half-light radius of 3 ± 1 pc, it is either the darkest galaxy ever ...
