Cloud Opacity Variations from Nighttime Observations in Venus Transparency Windows

open access: yesAtmosphere
The thick cloud layer enshrouding Venus influences its thermal balance and climate evolution. However, our knowledge of total optical depth, spatial and temporal variations in the clouds is limited.

Scattering line polarization in rotating, optically thick disks

open access: yes, 2014
To interpret observations of astrophysical disks it is essential to understand the formation process of the emitted light. If the disk is optically thick, scattering dominated and permeated by a Keplerian velocity field, Non-Local Thermodynamic ...

Opacity effects on the radiative losses of coronal loops

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1991
This paper presents calculations of radiative losses, which include the effects of geometry and optical depth, that can be used to improve the energy losses in many flux-tube calculations for loops with constant and variable cross sections. The results include the non-LTE ionization state of hydrogen and helium, thus allowing the determination of the ...

Smart Nanotechnologies for Multimodal Neuromodulation and Brain Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Recent advances in smart nanotechnologies are expanding the toolbox for brain interfacing, from wireless neuromodulation and high‐resolution sensing to targeted delivery within the central nervous system. By combining responsive nanomaterials with bioinspired design, these platforms enable multimodal interactions with neurons and glia, while also ...

A Porosity-Length Formalism for Photon-Tiring-Limited Mass Loss from Stars Above the Eddington Limit

open access: yes, 2004
We examine radiatively driven mass loss from stars near and above the Eddington limit (Ledd). We begin by reviewing the instabilities that are expected to form extensive structure near Ledd.

Intermolecular Aggregation‐Induced Delayed Fluorescence Scintillators for Ultrahigh‐Resolution X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An intermolecular AIDF strategy enables an organic X‐ray scintillator (OXST) that resists concentration quenching and efficiently utilizes singlet and triplet excitons. The AIDF emitter, embedded in a polysulfone matrix, yields bright, flexible, and transparent scintillation screens with ultralow detection limits and high spatial resolution, offering a

Stellar Pulsation and Evolution: A Combined Theoretical Renewal and Updated Models (SPECTRUM). I. Updating Radiative Opacities for Pulsation Models of Classical Cepheid and RR-Lyrae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Pulsating stars are universally recognized as precise distance indicators and tracers of stellar populations. Their variability, combined with well-defined relationships between pulsation properties and intrinsic evolutionary parameters such as ...

Extracting Physical Information from the Voigt Profile Using the Lambert W Function

open access: yesPlasma
Spectral line shapes are a key ingredient of hot-plasma opacity calculations. Since resorting to elaborate line-shape models remains prohibitive for intensive opacity calculations involving ions in different excitation states, with L, M, etc., shells are

A Constrained Dust Opacity for Models of Dense Clouds and Protostellar Envelopes

open access: yesResearch Notes of the AAS
Radiative transfer models of dense clouds and protostellar envelopes rely on the availability of appropriate dust opacities, particularly as new JWST data become available.

Kinsenoside Targets IDH1 to Restore Microglial Immune‐Metabolic Homeostasis for Alzheimer's Disease Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated TCA cycle contributes to Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Here, we show that microglial isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is a critical driver. Elevated IDH1 disrupts citrate metabolism and mitochondrial function, exacerbating AD pathology.
