Unveiling a Young Thick Disk in the Milky Way

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The thickness of a galaxy’s disk provides a valuable probe of its formation and evolution history. Observations of the Milky Way and local galaxies have revealed an ubiquitous disk structure with two distinctive components: an old thick disk and a ...

Observation of Disk Scattering Slab Modes Transitioning to Disk Scattering Modes on Metal–Dielectric Heterostructures in the Terahertz Waveband

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2015
It has been demonstrated that, in the terahertz (THz) waveband, disk scattering slab modes (DSSMs) can exist in a heterostructure composed of a metallic subwavelength disk array coated on one surface of a dielectric slab.

The age structure of stellar populations in the solar vicinity. Clues of a two-phase formation history of the Milky Way disk

open access: yes, 2013
We analyze high quality abundances data of solar neighborhood stars and show that there are two distinct regimes of [alpha/Fe] versus age which we identify as the epochs of the thick and thin disk formation.

Non‐Destructive and Mechanical Characterization of the Bond Quality of Co‐Extruded Titanium‐Aluminum Profiles

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the bond quality of co‐extruded aluminum–titanium hybrid profiles, focusing on the lateral angular co‐extrusion (LACE) process. It examines how heat treatments (HT) affect intermetallic phase formation, bond strength, and material properties.

Subsystems of the Galactic halo, their structures and compositions

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
It is shown that general populations of globular clusters and metal-poor field stars are components at least of three subsystems occupying different volumes in the Galaxy.

Comparative Wear and Friction Analysis of Sliding Surface Materials for Hydrostatic Bearing under Oil Supply Failure Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrostatic bearings excel in high‐precision applications, but their performance hinges on a continuous external supply. This study evaluates various material combinations for sliding surfaces to mitigate damage during supply failures or misalignment and to discover the most effective materials identified for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of

Graphene overcoats for ultra-high storage density magnetic media

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The main limitation to the areal storage density of hard disk drives (HDDs) is the thickness of carbon overcoats protecting the disk media. Here,

CHEMICAL ABUNDANCES OF THE MILKY WAY THICK DISK AND STELLAR HALO. II. SODIUM, IRON-PEAK, AND NEUTRON-CAPTURE ELEMENTS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present chemical abundance analyses of sodium, iron-peak, and neutron-capture elements for 97 kinematically selected thick disk, inner halo, and outer halo stars with metallicities −3.3 < [Fe/H] −1.5 support the hypothesis that these components formed
