AT2022sxl: A Candidate Repeating Tidal Disruption Event in Possible Association with Two High-energy Neutrino Events

The Astrophysical Journal
We report a candidate repeating tidal disruption event (TDE), AT2022sxl, found from large-field optical survey data. Two flares with a separation time of ∼7.2 yr between the two optical peaks are observed.

Scalable Room‐Temperature Terahertz Graphene Cameras

Small Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terahertz (THz) imaging has emerged as a powerful tool for non‐destructive, label‐free analysis across several scientific disciplines, ranging from materials science to biomedical research. By capturing the spatial‐dependent information in a broad range of frequencies, this technique enables the identification of chemical composition ...

Sequential Reduction of Chromite Pellets Using Hydrogen and Silicon Carbide for Carbon Emission Abatement During Ferrochrome Production

steel research international, EarlyView.
H2 prereduction selectively metallizes Fe in UG2 chromite pellets at 1100°C, while silicon carbide becomes active at 1300°C to convert remaining Cr2O3 to carbides and promote Cr metallization. By separating the roles of H2 and SiC, the sequential route reaches up to 65.7% Cr metallization and suppresses in‐furnace CO generation by ≈75% versus ...

Repeating flares, X-ray outbursts and delayed infrared emission: A comprehensive compilation of optical tidal disruption events

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been proposed as valuable laboratories for studying dormant black holes. However, progress in this field has been hampered by the limited number of observed events.

Systematic Learning and Pedagogy Through a Modular, Progressive‐Based Simulation Modeling Framework for Complex Systems

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smart Transportation Systems (SmTS) will exceed complex systems with their classification as complex, sociotechnical, and AI‐based systems. Possessing a toolkit that helps systemically understand, analyze, and assess these systems will be advantageous in the early stages of the systems engineering (SE) lifecycle, and Agent Based Models (ABMs ...

Association of the IceCube neutrinos with CAZ blazar light curves

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has detected several hundred high-energy neutrinos from cosmic sources. Despite numerous studies searching for their origin, it is still not known which sources emit them.

Threshold Currents of Vacuum Arcs With Tungsten and Copper Cathodes

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of an experimental study aimed at determining the threshold current for triggering a vacuum arc discharge, the probability of arc ignition and the average arc operation time depending on the current for tungsten and copper electrodes.

Classifying Optical (Out)bursts in Cataclysmic Variables: The Distinct Observational Characteristics of Dwarf Novae, Micronovae, Stellar Flares, and Magnetic Gating

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Cataclysmic variables can experience short optical brightenings, which are commonly attributed to phenomena such as dwarf novae outbursts, micronovae, donor flares, or magnetic gating bursts.

Sub-second cadence structure of optical flares on AD Leo

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Stellar flares are sudden brightenings caused by magnetic reconnection and are frequently observed on late-type stars. High-cadence photometry of flares provides valuable insights into the mechanisms of these events, yet such observations remain
