The K2 and TESS Synergy. III. Search and Rescue of the Lost Ephemeris for K2's First Planet

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
K2-2 b/HIP 116454 b, the first exoplanet discovery by K2 during its Two-Wheeled Concept Engineering Test, is a sub-Neptune (2.5 ± 0.1 R _⊕ , 9.7 ± 1.2 M _⊕ ) orbiting a relatively bright ( K _S = 8.03) K-dwarf star on a 9.1 day period. Unfortunately, due

Influence of an Al‐Doped ZnO Interface Layer on the Thermochromic Properties of VO2 Thin Films Deposited by RF Magnetron Sputtering

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein the metal‐to‐insulator transition is investigated when depositing vanadium dioxide (VO2) on glass or aluminum‐doped zinc oxide (AZO). O2 flow tuning during the deposition and additional post annealing are effective to control the metal‐to‐insulator transition. However, the VO2/AZO/glass stack reveals an increase in the transition temperature and

How to Weigh a Star Using a Moon

open access: yes, 2010
We show that for a transiting exoplanet accompanied by a moon which also transits, the absolute masses and radii of the star, planet and moon are determinable. For a planet-star system, it is well known that the density of the star is calculable from the

Active Hydrogen for Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of the active hydrogen (H*) for electrochemical ammonia synthesis with particular attention given to the regulation of H* generation and consumption to suppress the competition of hydrogen evolution reaction and enhance the yield, selectivity, and Faradaic efficiency of ammonia.

Exomoon simulations

open access: yes, 2009
We introduce and describe our newly developed code that simulates light curves and radial velocity curves for arbitrary transiting exoplanets with a satellite. The most important feature of the program is the calculation of radial velocity curves and the

Noise properties of the CoRoT data: a planet-finding perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this short paper, we study the photometric precision of stellar light curves obtained by the CoRoT satellite in its planet finding channel, with a particular emphasis on the timescales characteristic of planetary transits. Together with other articles

Covalently‐Bonded Diaphite Nanoplatelet with Engineered Electronic Properties of Diamond

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel approach to engineering the electronic properties of diamond is reported on the diaphite nanoplatelet consisting of (11¯${{\bar{1}}}$1) planes of diamond nanoplatelet covalently bonded with graphite (0001) planes. The strong sp3/sp2‐hybridized interfacial covalent bonding induces the electron transfer from diamond to graphite, resulting in a ...

Structural Transitions of Satellite Tobacco Mosaic Virus Particles

open access: yesVirology, 2001
Satellite tobacco mosaic virus (STMV) can undergo at least two physical transitions that significantly alter its mechanical and structural characteristics. At high pH the 17-nm STMV particles expand radially by about 5 A to yield particles having diameters of about 18 nm.
