Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...Burak Ozdemir, Muhammad A.

Astronomy & AstrophysicsAims. We quantify the uncertainty in space debris contributions to night sky brightness by comparing predictions from two major debris environment models and assessing the resulting signal-to-noise degradation for ground-based astronomical observations ...Wallner S., Kocifaj M., Silha J.doaj +1 more sourceThe Planck Telescope
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2002 In this paper we present an overview of the Telescope designed for ESA's mission dedicated to map the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies and Polarization. Two instruments, LFI and HFI, operate in an overall frequency range between 25 and 900 GHz and share the focal region of the 1.5 meter optimized telescope.F. Villa, M. Bersanelli, C. Burigana, R. C.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A unique subset of CD9+ B cells regulates germinal center B (GC‐B) cell regression by inducing T follicular helper (Tfh) cell apoptosis through multiple signaling pathways, such as ALCAM‐CD6. FOXP1 plays a key role in GC‐B cell differentiation. These findings clarify mechanisms of GC degeneration and termination and offer potential targets for adenoid ...Wenjing Liao, Lijuan Song, Meiqian Xu, Tianhao Liang, Yixuan Chen, Gui Chen, Zaihuan Lin, Huakang Du, Guofei Feng, Zhiming Feng, Qi Zhang, Fan Pan, Saixuan Yang, Xinyin Zhang, Wenxu Peng, Tianlong Li, Zhuoshen Lin, Yabang Chen, Jiayi Liu, Baoxin Peng, Yan Liu, Xing Niu, Ting Li, Chengyu Huang, Ke Mo, Jianlei Xie, Yu Zou, Xiaowen Zhang +27 morewiley +1 more sourceEuclid
