High-contrast imaging of Sirius~A with VLT/SPHERE: Looking for giant planets down to one astronomical unit [PDF]
Sirius has always attracted a lot of scientific interest, especially after the discovery of a companion white dwarf at the end of the 19th century. Very early on, the existence of a potential third body was put forward to explain some of the observed ...

To overcome silicon anode instability, a hierarchical silicon/carbon composite fabricated from industrial waste via a scalable milling process is demonstrated. In‐depth post‐mortem analysis reveals how functional carbons—a CNT network and graphene shell—synergistically suppress degradation. This robust design delivers outstanding stability in practical

Frontier orbital energy engineering of PTFE by incorporating electron‐withdrawing oxygen‐ and nitrogen‐containing functional groups alters the local electronic environment and elevates the LUMO energy. This molecular modification strategy suppresses reduction‐induced side reactions in dry‐processed anodes.
