Constraining the Planetary Obliquity Distribution of Warm Jupiters

The Astronomical Journal
Warm Jupiters are an intriguing class of planets with uncertain origins. Their planetary obliquities could help distinguish between different formation pathways: planet–planet scattering and migration across resonances can excite large obliquities ...

Patient‐Derived 3D Heart‐On‐a‐Chip Model of Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Embedded Bead‐Based Mapping of Tissue Contractility

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A heart‐on‐a‐chip model of dilated cardiomyopathy is developed from patient‐derived induced pluripotent stem cells. The model recapitulates key disease phenotypes and enables functional assessment through integrated bead‐based tracking and pillar deflection measurements.

A General, Differentiable Transit Model for Ellipsoidal Occulters: Derivation, Application, and Forecast of Planetary Oblateness and Obliquity Constraints with JWST

The Astrophysical Journal
Increasingly precise space-based photometry uncovers higher-order effects in transits, eclipses, and phase curves that can be used to characterize exoplanets in novel ways.

CONVECTION IN OBLATE SOLAR-TYPE STARS [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT We present the first global 3D simulations of thermal convection in the oblate envelopes of rapidly rotating solar-type stars. This has been achieved by exploiting the capabilities of the new compressible high-order unstructured spectral difference (CHORUS) code.

Sub‐Nanometer Curvature Unlocks Quantum Orbital Flexoelectricity in Graphene

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In self‐assembled, reproducible, large‐area, quasi‐pristine graphene nanowrinkles, extreme curvature forces out‐of‐plane π‐electrons toward hybridization, driving a transition from classical to quantum orbital flexoelectricity. As curvature approaches the fundamental physical limit set by the C─C bond length, the resulting polarization increases by ...

An Extremely Low-density Exoplanet Spins Slow

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present constraints on the shape of Kepler-51d, which is a superpuff with a mass ∼6 M _⊕ and a radius ∼9 R _⊕ , based on detailed modeling of the transit light curve from James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec. The projected shape of this extremely

Effects of asteroid belt and oblateness on the stability and orbits near triangular Lagrange points

Results in Physics
This study investigates the dynamics of an infinitesimal body within the context of the restricted three-body problem, incorporating perturbations arising from the asteroid belt and the oblateness effects of the three bodies.

Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Algebraic Model of an Oblate Top [PDF]

, 1997
We consider an algebraic treatment of a three-body system. In particular, we develop the formalism for a system of three identical objects and discuss an application to nonstrange baryon resonances which are interpreted as vibrational and rotational excitations of an oblate symmetric top.

Generating Unconventional Spin‐Orbit Torques With Patterned Phase Gradients in Tungsten Thin Films

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A key aim in spintronics is to achieve current‐induced magnetization switching via spin‐orbit torques without external magnetic fields. For this, the focus of recent work has been on introducing controlled lateral gradients across ferromagnet/heavy‐metal devices, giving variations in thickness, composition, or interface quality.
