Classical and Recurrent Nova Outbursts

open access: yes, 2011
Over the last 40 years, multi-frequency observations, coupled with advances in theoretical modelling, have led to a much fuller understanding of the nova phenomenon. Here I give a brief review of the current state of knowledge of Classical and Recurrent Novae including their central systems; the causes and consequences of their outbursts; sub-types ...

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

Atomic‐Scale Mechanisms of Multi‐Resistance States in HfOx‐Based RRAM: Evolution of Atomic Electric Fields and Oxygen Vacancies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Atomic‐scale mechanisms governing multilevel resistive switching in HfOx‐based RRAM are reveal through advanced TEM. Thermally driven m‐phase rotation ([101]↔[011]) enables selective oxygen vacancy migration, which reconstructs atomic electric fields and dictates conduction—from Schottky/Poole‐Frenkel emission to Ohmic transport.

Understanding the Roles of Microstructure and Viscoelasticity of Soft Ionic Elastomer for Super‐Capacitive Pressure Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By engineering the PVA/H3PO4 ionic elastomer with optimized viscoelasticity and a height‐graded microstructure, the pressure sensor achieves a broad linear range up to 2000 kPa and a high sensitivity of 2.70 nF/kPa. These advancements underscore its strong potential for wearable electronics, including bio‐signal detection, health monitoring, and ...

Irradiation-driven Formation of Supersoft X-Ray Sources following Classical Novae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) are characterized by persistent thermonuclear burning on the surfaces of white dwarfs (WDs). The standard model requires high mass-transfer rates of ∼10 ^−7 M _⊙ yr ^−1 from massive companions, presenting a theoretical ...
