Digital Actuation Control of Soft Robotic Origami With Self‐Folding Liquid Crystal Elastomer Hinges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐folding soft‐rigid hybrid robotic origami is enabled by liquid crystal elastomer actuators with embedded Joule heating and closed‐loop digital control. Digitally addressable hinges provide reversible and programmable transitions between distinct folded states while maintaining actuation performance at high cycle counts (over 1500).

Photometric Analysis of Asteroids in the Phocaea Region

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Phocaea asteroid family, one of the large ancient families located in the inner main belt, may be the sources of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) due to the nearby 3:1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter, the ν 6 secular resonance, and the Yarkovsky and ...

Measuring and calibrating Galactic synchrotron emission

open access: yes, 2008
Our position inside the Galaxy requires all-sky surveys to reveal its large-scale properties. The zero-level calibration of all-sky surveys differs from standard 'relative' measurements, where a source is measured in respect to its surroundings.

Radio Continuum Surveys of the Sky [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
Radio continuum surveys give us the fundamental information about the distribution of the radio intensity across the sky. The radio waves originate in three fundamental emitting processes and are measured superposed in the antenna beam. At the lowest radio frequencies (below 10 GHz) the nonthermal emission process (synchrotron radiation) predominates ...

Ferroelectricity in Antiferromagnetic Wurtzite Nitrides

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We establish MnSiN2${\rm MnSiN}_2$ and MnGeN2${\rm MnGeN}_2$ as aristotypes of a new multiferroic wurtzite family that simultaneously exhibits ferroelectricity and antiferromagnetism with altermagnetic spin splitting. By strategically substituting alkaline‐earth metals, we predict new materials with coexisting switchable polarization, spin texture, and

Exploring Unobscured Quasi-stellar Objects in the Southern Hemisphere with KS4

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a catalog of unobscured quasi-stellar object (QSO) candidates in the Southern Hemisphere from the early interim data of the KMTNet Synoptic Survey of Southern Sky (KS4).

Asteroid spin-rate studies using large sky-field surveys

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2017
Eight campaigns to survey asteroid rotation periods have been carried out using the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory in the past 3 years. 2780 reliable rotation periods were obtained, from which we identified two new super-fast rotators (SFRs ...

An overlooked brown dwarf neighbour (T7.5 at d~5pc) of the Sun and two additional T dwarfs at about 10pc

open access: yes, 2013
Although many new brown dwarf (BD) neighbours have recently been discovered thanks to new sky surveys in the mid- and near-infrared (MIR, NIR), their numbers are still more than five times lower than those of stars in the same volume.

2D Magnetic and Topological Quantum Materials and Devices for Ultralow Power Spintronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D magnets and topological quantum materials enable ultralow‐power spintronics by combining robust magnetic order with symmetry‐protected, Berry‐curvature‐driven transport. Fundamentals of 2D anisotropy and spin‐orbit‐coupling induced band inversion are linked to scalable growth and vdW stacking.

A Holistic Exploration of the Potentially Recoverable Redshift Information of Stage IV Galaxy Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Extragalactic science and cosmology with Stage IV galaxy surveys will rely almost exclusively on redshift measurements derived solely from photometry, which are subject to systematic and statistical uncertainties with numerous analysis choices.
