From Single Atoms to Nanoparticles: Pathways Toward Efficient and Durable Pt/TiO2 Photocatalysts

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Platinum single atoms on TiO2 nanosheets evolve into clusters and nanoparticles under ethanol photoreforming and thermal treatments. By controlling deposition and post‐treatments, particle size and location on specific facets are modulated. The study reveals how stability pathways determine efficiency, guiding the design of more durable photocatalysts.

The Influence of General Relativity on the Spins of Celestial Bodies in Inclined Orbits

The Astrophysical Journal
Through the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect, several hot Jupiters have been found to exhibit spin–orbit misalignment and even retrograde orbits. The high obliquity observed in these planets can be attributed to two primary formation mechanisms, as summarized ...

Orbital Stability of Multi-Planet Systems: Behavior at High Masses

, 2016
In the coming years, high contrast imaging surveys are expected to reveal the characteristics of the population of wide-orbit, massive, exoplanets. To date, a handful of wide planetary mass companions are known, but only one such multi-planet system has ...

Nanolayer‐Encapsulated Stretchable Liquid‐Metal Sheets for Thermal Management

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A stretchable liquid metal sheet with both high thermal conductivity and mechanical flexibility is developed. Its trilayer structure, comprising copper‐particle‐dispersed gallium liquid metal encapsulated by styrene‐butadiene‐styrene nanosheets, shows 40.4 W m−1 K−1 conductivity, elongation exceeding 200%, and retention of 96% of its initial ...

Sculpting of Exoplanetary Systems Driven by a Misaligned Disk and Stellar Oblateness: Origin of Perpendicular Orbits in HD 3167

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
A significant proportion of exoplanets have been detected with highly tilted or even polar orbits relative to their host stars’ equatorial planes. These unusual orbital configurations are often linked to postdisk secular interactions among multiple ...

A predictive framework for realistic star-planet radio emission in compact systems

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Radio emission from star-planet interactions (SPIs) beyond our Solar System has yet to be firmly detected, primarily due to weak signals, directional beaming effects, and low-frequency emissions blocked by Earth’s ionosphere.

ALMA 1.3 Millimeter Map of the HD 95086 System

, 2017
Planets and minor bodies such as asteroids, Kuiper-belt objects and comets are integral components of a planetary system. Interactions among them leave clues about the formation process of a planetary system.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.
