Semi-analytical Model for the Dynamical Evolution of Planetary Systems via Giant Impacts

The Astrophysical Journal
In the standard model of terrestrial planet formation, planets are formed through giant impacts of planetary embryos after the dispersal of the protoplanetary gas disk.

Low‐Outgassing Liquid Metal–Silicone Composites for Multifunctional Space Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Integrating liquid metal microdroplets into a space‐grade silicone creates a multifunctional composite while preserving its inherent flexibility and low‐outgassing behavior. The composite has 11×$\times$ higher thermal conductivity while remaining thermally stable and maintaining a total mass loss of ≤$\le$ 1% under thermal vacuum testing.

Stability of the 47 UMa planetary system

, 2002
In this paper we study the stability of the 47 UMa planetary system in the framework of the N-body problem, with application of the MEGNO technique. The method makes it possible to distinguish rapidly between chaotic and regular evolution of a planetary ...

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). XIV. A Comoving-based Age Constraint for KELT-20

The Astronomical Journal
Young stellar moving groups offer unique opportunities to investigate the early evolution of stellar and planetary systems. In continuation of an ongoing effort to age-date compelling planetary systems, we provide an in-depth age analysis of KELT-20—a ...

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.
