The ORCA‐TWIN qCMOS Experiment I. Science Case and Commissioning at Calar Alto Observatory

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a pilot study to explore a new generation of fast and low noise CMOS image sensors for time domain astronomy, using two remote telescopes with a baseline of 1635 km. The experiment involves direct imaging with novel qCMOS image sensor technology that combines fast readout with sub‐electron readout noise.

The Search for Stable Nickel: Investigating the Origins of Type Ia Supernovae with Late-time Near-infrared Spectroscopy from the Carnegie Supernova Project-II

The Astrophysical Journal
Producing stable ^58 Ni in Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) requires sufficiently high-density conditions that are not predicted for all origin scenarios, so examining the distribution of ^58 Ni using the near-infrared (NIR) [Ni II ] 1.939 μ m line may ...

Polycarbazole–NiOOH Interfacial Engineering of BiVO4 Photoanodes for Efficient and Stable Solar Water Splitting

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A π‐conjugated carbazole (p‐CBZ) layer is electro‐polymerized on BiVO4 to form a p–n heterojunction that enhances charge separation and suppresses surface recombination, while a NiOOH co‐catalyst accelerates oxygen evolution kinetics. The synergistic BVO/p‐CBZ/NiOOH photoanode delivers a high photocurrent density and long‐term stability for efficient ...
