Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 11, 9 June 2026.
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Light‑Driven Propulsion of Graphene Aerogels in Microgravity

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
Ultralight graphene aerogels convert laser light into thrust. Parabolic‐flight experiments directly compare their motion in microgravity and at 1 g, revealing order‐of‐magnitude enhancements in distance, velocity, and transient thrust when weight and friction are removed (∼50 times enhancement).

Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter‐sized alginate hydrogel beads

AIChE Journal, Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation. Next, we measured the perimeter and circularity of hydrogel beads as

Impact of Pumpkin and Carrot Flours on the Oxidative and Rheological Properties: Properties of Low‐Fat Cold‐Pressed Oil Mayonnaise

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 6, Page 641-655, June 2026.
Partial substitution of sunflower oil with cold‐pressed oils (0‐20%) improves the bioactive composition, oxidative stability, and overall quality of mayonnaise while preserving emulsion stability. ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of xanthan gum, carrot flour, and pumpkin flour on the physicochemical, rheological, and bioactive properties of
