Magnetic Fields in Spiral Arms.

The Astrophysical Journal, 1953
In this paper two independent methods are described for estimating the magnetic field in the spiral arm in which we are located. The first method is based on an interpretation of the dispersion (of the order of 10° ) in the observed planes of polarization of the light of the distant stars; it leads to an estimate of H = 7.2 X 10 -6 gauss.

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

Spiral Arms across Cosmic Time: JWST Measurements of the Pitch Angles of Spiral Galaxies at z < 3.5

The Astrophysical Journal
The properties of spiral galaxies in the early Universe remain poorly studied, and as such, little is known about their nature and evolution. We use JWST data to measure the pitch angles of spiral galaxies across cosmic time.

Insights into the structure and kinematics of a Milky Way-like galaxy

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Understanding how the large-scale kinematics of the Milky Way (MW) shape the formation and evolution of the interstellar medium remains challenging from an observational perspective, and numerical models that can reproduce the observed structure

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Forces Attributed to Dark Matter May Originate from Entangled Particles as Seen in the Shape Of Galaxies Formed by Grbs

International Journal of Engineering and Management Sciences, 2018
Recently, it has been suggested that entangled particles may be connected by a wormhole. If that is right, what is the distance between them we have to take into account when applying Newton's law of universal gravitation to these particles?

ChicGrasp: Imitation‐Learning‐Based Customized Dual‐Jaw Gripper Control for Manipulation of Delicate, Irregular Bio‐Products

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

Magnetic spiral arms in galaxies [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998
Large-scale magnetic fields in spiral galaxies are strongest in spiral-shaped regions, the magnetic arms. It was recently discovered for the galaxy NGC 6946 that magnetic arms can be interlaced with the gaseous arms, rather than coinciding with them. There are indications that the magnetic and gaseous arms may cross in some other galaxies.

Planet-driven Spiral Arms in Protoplanetary Disks. I. Formation Mechanism

, 2018
Protoplanetary disk simulations show that a single planet can excite more than one spiral arm, possibly explaining the recent observations of multiple spiral arms in some systems. In this paper, we explain the mechanism by which a planet excites multiple

Backpropagation Through Soft Body: Investigating Information Processing in Brain–Body Coupling Systems

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study explores how information processing is distributed between brains and bodies through a codesign approach. Using the “backpropagation through soft body” framework, brain–body coupling agents are developed and analyzed across several tasks in which output is generated through the agents’ physical dynamics.
