Commissioning an Inexpensive Off‐The‐Shelf Spectrograph for Radial‐Velocity Studies

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a way to set up an inexpensive out of the shelf spectrograph at a local observatory. Stability and resolution of the spectrograph are high enough for radial velocity determination of binary stars or determination of stellar characteristics. Even some exoplanets might be detectable via the radial velocity method.

Discovery and Initial Investigation of a New Low Surface Brightness Planetary Nebula Candidate at High Galactic Latitude

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

When Dihedral Angles Mask Denticity in Molecular Conductance

open access: yesChemPhysChem, EarlyView.
This study tests whether higher molecule–electrode denticity increases conductance in single‐molecule junctions. Using nonequilibrium Green's function technique in conjunction with density functional theory simulations and mechanically controlled break‐junction experiments on a tetradentate N‐heterohexacene, it is found that conductance depends mainly ...

Synthetic Engineering of Manganese Oxide–Carbon Nanocomposites for Maximized Metal Utilization in Supercapacitors

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A one‐pot metal–ammonia synthesis enables uniform Mn2O3 nanoparticle deposition on activated carbon, yielding composites with excellent electrochemical performance in supercapacitors. The method maximizes manganese utilization, eliminates toxic solvents, and achieves 34% of the theoretical maximum capacitance, significantly outperforming existing Mn–C ...
