Synthesis of topological semimetal TaAs2 nanowires in situ encapsulated with a thin SiO2 shell unravel a richness of intertwined topological phases manifested by their magnetotransport features: A near‐room‐temperature metal‐to‐insulator transition, strong expressions of topologically nontrivial surface transport, giant magnetoresistance with direction‐

Extinctions and distances of dark clouds from UGRIJHK photometry of red clump giants: the North America and Pelican nebulae complex [PDF]
A possibility of applying 2MASS J, H, Ks, IPHAS r, i and MegaCam u, g photometry of red giants for determining distances to dark clouds is investigated. Red clump giants with a small admixture of G5-K1 and M2-M3 stars of the giant branch can be isolated and used in determining distances to separate clouds or spiral arms.

Synthetic Active Liquid Crystals Powered by Acoustic Waves
A fully synthetic active liquid crystal, energized by an acoustic field, is presented. This system exhibits active nematic behavior, tunable topological defect dynamics, and persistent hydrodynamic vortices at high activity levels. The material maintains stable properties while enabling precise activity control in a wide range.

Simulations of the symbiotic recurrent nova V407 Cyg. I. Accretion and shock evolutions
The shock interaction and evolution of nova ejecta with a wind from a red giant star in a symbiotic binary system are investigated via three-dimensional hydrodynamics simulations.

Biomechanical‐to‐electrical energy conversion devices are uniquely suited for self‐driven physiological information monitoring and powering human–computer interaction systems. These devices based on micro‐/nanoarchitectured inorganic dielectric materials (MNIDMs) have shown ultrahigh electromechanical performance and thus great potential for practical ...

A Neuransistor with Excitatory and Inhibitory Neuronal Behaviors for Liquid State Machine
The neuransistor integrates hybrid excitatory and inhibitory dynamics, enabling liquid state machine implementation. It operates via charge trapping in a two‐dimensional electron electron gas (2DEG)/TiO2−x structure and features a three‐terminal design for efficient masking functionality. Simulations demonstrate its effectiveness in predicting temporal

Red giant bound on the axion-electron coupling reexamined
If axions or other low-mass pseudoscalars couple to electrons (``fine structure constant'' $\alpha_a$) they are emitted from red giant stars by the Compton process $\gamma+e\to e+a$ and by bremsstrahlung $e+(Z,A)\to (Z,A)+e+a$.

Red Giant Stars in NGC 5128 [PDF]
I present a selection of results obtained from VLT FORS1 and ISAAC photometric monitoring of late-type giants in NGC 5128 (=Centaurus A). The combination of optical and near-IR photometry allows to probe the full metallicity range of the stars on the upper red giant branch, thanks to combined low-metallicity sensitivity of the optical and high ...
