Geometry of crossing null shells

open access: yes, 2003
New geometric objects on null thin layers are introduced and their importance for crossing null-like shells are discussed. The Barrab\`es--Israel equations are represented in a new geometric form and they split into decoupled system of equations for two ...

Topological regularization and self-duality in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter gravity

open access: yes, 2009
It is shown that the addition of a topological invariant (Gauss-Bonnet term) to the anti-de Sitter (AdS) gravity action in four dimensions recovers the standard regularization given by holographic renormalization procedure.

Highly Sensitive Cuffless Blood Pressure Monitoring with Selective Laser‐Sintered Liquid Metal Conductors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, compact, and cuffless system for continuous blood pressure monitoring using laser‐sintered liquid metal conductors is developed. The stretchability and sensitivity of the device enable real‐time, non‐invasive tracking of blood pressure, including recovery after exercise. This wearable device offers a practical solution for managing hypertension

Vacuum type I spacetimes and aligned Papapetrou fields: symmetries

open access: yes, 2003
We analyze type I vacuum solutions admitting an isometry whose Killing 2--form is aligned with a principal bivector of the Weyl tensor, and we show that these solutions belong to a family of type I metrics which admit a group $G_3$ of isometries. We give

Substrate Engineering for Durable Omniphobic Liquid‐Like Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The significant yet less investigated role of substrates in determining the liquid‐repellency and mechanical durability of liquid‐like surfaces (LLSs) is explored. Thick and crack‐free sol–gel silica intermediary layers are developed that can smoothen substrate asperity roughness even at the micron scale, enabling omniphobic polydimethylsiloxane‐based ...

High Performance Room Temperature Multiferroic Properties of w‐MnSe Altermagnet

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Using first‐principles calculations, for the first time the Altermagneto‐Ferroelectric Coupling Effect (AFCE) is proposed, which enables control of both electric polarization and spin splitting in the band structure due to polyhedral rotations. This uncovers robust multiferroicity in wurtzite MnSe at room temperature, offering an exciting route for ...

Probing Early Particle‐Cell Membrane Interactions via Single‐Cell and Single‐Particle Interaction Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The pre‐internalization phase of endocytosis remains poorly characterized at single‐cell levels. Single‐cell pre‐internalization mechanics are investigated using advanced robotic techniques. Cancer cells exhibit biphasic adhesion – rapid initial binding followed by reinforcement – while fibroblasts show gradual engagement.
