Playing Hard with Si: Challenges and Opportunities for New Materials in Radiation Therapy Dosimetry
Silicon has been a cornerstone material of radiation therapy dosimetry for many decades, providing somewhat unchallenged performance. However, there are caveats to its use, requiring complex designs and, often, correction factors to provide accurate measurements.

Dwarf Galaxies with Radio-excess Active Galactic Nuclei in the Very Large Array Sky Survey
We present a systematic search for radio active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in dwarf galaxies using recent observations taken by the Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS).

Cosmic ray acceleration to ultrahigh energy in radio galaxies [PDF]
The origin of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is an open question. In this proceeding, we first review the general physical requirements that a source must meet for acceleration to 10-100 EeV, including the consideration that the shock is not ...

Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies With Absorbed Jets–Insights From Radio Spectral Index Maps
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies are active galactic nuclei (AGN) believed to be in the early stages of their evolution. A fraction of them have been found to host relativistic jets.

Influence of major mergers on the radio emission of elliptical galaxies
We investigate the influence of major mergers on the radio emission of elliptical galaxies. We use a complete sample of close pairs, which contains 475 merging and 1828 non-merging paired elliptical galaxies of ...

Cosmological Studies with Radio Galaxies and Supernovae [PDF]
Physical sizes of extended radio galaxies can be employed as a cosmological "standard ruler", using a previously developed method. Eleven new radio galaxies are added to our previous sample of nineteen sources, forming a sample of thirty objects with ...

Highest redshift radio galaxies [PDF]
At low redshifts powerful radio sources are uniquely associated with massive galaxies, and are thought to be powered by supermassive black holes. Modern 8m -- 10m telescopes may be used used to find their likely progenitors at very high redshifts to study their formation and evolution.

Thermochromic Gires‐Tournois Resonators with Tellurium for Battery Thermal Runaway Warning
A thermochromic Gires‐Tournois (GT) resonator with a thin tellurium layer enables rapid, reversible, and untethered detection of battery surface temperature <80 °C. Exploiting tellurium's refractive index change driven by a thermally induced phase transition between solid and quasi‐liquid states, the GT resonator visualizes heat propagation, providing ...

Probing the Impact of Radio-mode Feedback on the Properties of the Cool Circumgalactic Medium
We explore the influence of radio-mode feedback on the properties of the cool circumgalactic medium (CGM). To this end, we assemble a statistical sample of approximately 30,000 radio galaxies with background quasars by combining optical spectroscopic ...
