Phase Relations in Ba6−3xLn8+2xTi18O54 (Ln = Nd & Sm) Electroceramics
A careful, systematic investigation of Ba6−3xLn8+2xTi18O54 (BLnTss) ceramics has been performed in order to understand the relationship between composition, microstructure evolution, and microwave dielectric properties.

Osteogenic‐angiogenic cross‐talk is a vital prerequisite for vascularized bone regeneration. In this study, we investigated the effects of siRNA‐mediated silencing of two inhibitory proteins, Chordin and WWP‐1, via CaP‐NP‐loaded gelatin microparticles in osteogenically differentiated microtissues.

Bi-modal particle size distribution for high energy product hybrid Nd–Fe–B—Sm–Fe–N bonded magnets
In this work, we have demonstrated high energy product bonded magnet by leveraging the variation in sizes between Nd-Fe-B and Sm-Fe-N, as well as their hard magnetic properties.

Nd-142/Nd-144 in SNCs and early differentiation of a heterogeneous Martian mantle [PDF]
Sm/Nd correlated variations in Nd-142/Nd-144 have been observed for mineral phases of achondrites from decay of live Sm-146 in the early solar system. Crystallization ages of shergottites-nakhlites-Chassigny (SNC) meteorites are less than or = 1.3 Ga, so

Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd ages of the Phalaborwa Carbonatite Complex, South Africa [PDF]
We analyzed Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd isotopic compositions of whole-rock and minerals from syenite, biotite gneiss xenolith, dolerite dyke, phoscorite, and carbonatite from the Phalaborwa Carbonatite Complex located in northeastern Transvaal, South Africa ...

Archaean and Proterozoic diamond growth from contrasting styles of large-scale magmatism [PDF]
Precise dating of diamond growth is required to understand the interior workings of the early Earth and the deep carbon cycle. Here we report Sm-Nd isotope data from 26 individual garnet inclusions from 26 harzburgitic diamonds from Venetia, South Africa.

Probing Cellular Activity Via Charge‐Sensitive Quantum Nanoprobes
A new quantum sensing modality detects shifts in zero‐field splitting caused by charge rearrangement with diamond nanocrystals in response to cellular activity. These electric‐field‐driven effects provide an alternative to temperature‐based interpretations, enabling real‐time, single‐cell readout of inflammation.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Sedimentary provenance in the southern sector of the São Francisco Basin, SE Brazil
: We present new Sm-Nd, U-Pb and Hf isotope geochronological data for the siliciclastic rocks in the southern sector of the São Francisco Basin. An abrupt change in the Sm-Nd data is observed from the Carrancas Formation’s oligomitic conglomerates (TDM ...
