Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...

The Kraft Break Sharply Divides Low-mass and Intermediate-mass Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Main-sequence stars transition at mid-F spectral types from slowly rotating (cooler stars) to rapidly rotating (hotter stars), a transition known as the Kraft Break and attributed to the disappearance of the outer convective envelope, causing magnetic ...

Heat Transport and Convective Velocities in Compositionally Driven Convection in Neutron Star and White Dwarf Interiors

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate heat transport associated with compositionally driven convection driven by crystallization at the ocean–crust interface in accreting neutron stars, or growth of the solid core in cooling white dwarfs.

Improvements to stellar structure models, based on a grid of 3D convection simulations. II. Calibrating the mixing-length formulation

open access: yes, 2014
We perform a calibration of the mixing length of convection in stellar structure models against realistic 3D radiation-coupled hydrodynamics (RHD) simulations of convection in stellar surface layers, determining the adiabat deep in convective stellar ...

Freeform Fabrication of Layered Halide Perovskite Nanowire Heterojunctions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
‘All‐at‐once’ freeform fabrication of layered perovskite nanowire heterojunctions is realized by 3D printing employing meniscus‐guided crystallization. The integration of nanoscale additive manufacturing with layered halide perovskites will provide a versatile platform to freely design and realize highly stable perovskite‐based optoelectronic ...

Magnetic Webs in Stellar Radiative Zones

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Rotational evolution of stellar radiative zones is an old puzzle. We argue that angular momentum transport by turbulent processes induced by differential rotation is insufficient, and propose that a key role is played by “magnetic webs.” We define ...

Diagnostic of the unstable envelopes of Wolf-Rayet stars

open access: yes, 2016
The envelopes of stars near the Eddington limit are prone to various instabilities. A high Eddington factor in connection with the Fe opacity peak leads to convective instability, and a corresponding envelope inflation may induce pulsational instability.

Simulations of core convection in rotating A-type stars: Differential rotation and overshooting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present the results of 3--D simulations of core convection within A-type stars of 2 solar masses, at a range of rotation rates. We consider the inner 30% by radius of such stars, thereby encompassing the convective core and some of the surrounding ...

Breaking Taylor–Proudman Balance by Magnetic Fields in Stellar Convection Zones [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018
Abstract We carry out high-resolution calculations for the stellar convection zone. The main purpose of this Letter is to investigate the effect of a small-scale dynamo on the differential rotation. The solar differential rotation deviates from the Taylor–Proudman state in which the angular velocity does not change along the rotational ...
