HR-GO. II. Chemical Abundances of Low-E Retrograde Dynamically Tagged Groups: Revealing Thamnos as a Very Metal-poor Substructure

The Astrophysical Journal
Milky Way halo substructures identified in dynamical space are known to suffer from contamination from the Milky Way in situ stars, which makes their accreted origins uncertain. We present detailed chemical abundances of 35 stars belonging to two sets of

Simulations of satellite tidal debris in the Milky Way halo

, 2020
Aims. We study the distribution of the stellar and dark matter debris of the Milky Way satellites. Methods. For the first time we address the question of the tidal disruption of satellites in simulations by utilising simultaneously (a) a realistic set of

Upcycling Keratin‐Based Textile Waste Into High‐Performance Hybrid Fibers Via Tuning the Interfacial Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Keratin recovered from animal‐hair textile waste is fractionated and blended with cellulose to produce continuously spun hybrid fibers. Selecting the high‐molecular‐weight keratin fraction enables 30 wt.% keratin incorporation while maintaining high strength in dry and wet states.

Resolving the stellar outskirts of six Milky Way-like galaxies beyond the Local Group

, 2016
Models of galaxy formation in a hierarchical universe predict substantial scatter in the halo-to-halo stellar properties, owing to stochasticity in galaxies’ merger histories.

Configuration‐Encoded Cell Alignment by Light‐Gated Silicon Photovoltaic Microcell Arrays

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐gated silicon photovoltaic microcells convert pulsed illumination into localized electrical cues. Arranging otherwise similar microcells into four‐lobed, six‐lobed, or circular patterns directs fibroblasts into corresponding local arrangements without wired stimulation.

What Is Missing from the Local Stellar Halo?

The Astrophysical Journal
The Milky Way’s stellar halo, which extends to >100 kpc, encodes the evolutionary history of our Galaxy. However, most studies of the halo to date have been limited to within a few kiloparsecs of the Sun.

An Antimicrobial, Cell‐Adhesive, and Growth Factor‐Producing Living Material Engineered From Bacillus subtilis Biofilms for Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacillus subtilis is engineered to produce cell‐adhesive biofilms by functionalization of its biofilm scaffold protein TasA with a cell‐adhesion sequence. Living bacteria within the biofilm are also engineered to secrete growth factors and natively produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), resulting in a cell‐adhesive, antimicrobial, and growth factor ...

The Milky Way’s Early Disk Was Built in Bursts. I. Evidence from Low-angular-momentum, High-α Stars Scattered Out of the Protodisk by Merger Events

The Astronomical Journal
Stars born in the high- α disk can later acquire low angular momentum through dynamical scattering during early merger events. Their age–metallicity distribution thus provides a fossil record of the history of both star formation and dynamical ...

Inverse Design of Nanoparticulate Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inverse design shifts nanomaterial development from empirical trial‐and‐error to predictive model‐driven strategies. It can rely on knowledge‐based, data‐based, or hybrid process and property functions. This perspective article provides a practical framework for applying inverse design based on instructive examples. It discusses which modeling approach
