Structural batteries emerge as sustainable devices by integrating energy storage into load‐bearing components, thus reducing mass and enhancing fuel efficiency. However, their performance is challenged by the compromise between mechanical strength and ionic conductivity.

Deflection of ultra-high energy heavy nuclei in the Galactic magnetic field
In this work, we investigate the impacts a potential shift towards a heavy composition at the end of the cosmic ray (CR) spectrum would have on the future data [1, 2].

Cosmic Rays: Studying the Origin [PDF]
Investigations of the origin of cosmic rays are presented. Different methods are discussed: studies of cosmic gamma rays of energy from 30 MeV to about 10^15 eV (since photons point to their places of origin), studies of the mass composition of cosmic rays (because it reflects source morphology), and studies of cosmic rays with energy above 10^19 eV

Assessment of the Influence of UVR in Cutaneous Melanoma
ABSTRACT Background Although a role for ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) development is accepted, there is debate over the magnitude and mechanisms given its association with intermittent but not chronic exposure. Objectives To assess new ideas and data on the subject, review some debated topics, bringing a molecular ...

Abstract The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) radio telescope possesses the unique capability to measure ultra‐high energy cosmic rays as well as image lightning discharges. This study presents a comparison between the inferred thunderstorm charge structures derived from cosmic‐ray measurements and from lightning flashes.

The importance of atmospheric monitoring at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Observatory is an ultra-high energy cosmic ray experiment employing a giant surface array of particle detectors together with telescopes to image fluorescence light from extensive air showers in the atmosphere.

Abstract Background FLASH has been shown to spare normal tissue toxicity while maintaining tumor control. However, existing irradiation platforms and dosimetry are not compatible. Consequently, an abundance of FLASH delivery devices and new dosimetry across all modalities has been created.

The Eddington Limit in Cosmic Rays: An Explanation for the Observed Faintness of Starbursting Galaxies [PDF]
We show that the luminosity of a star forming galaxy is capped by the production and subsequent expulsion of cosmic rays from its interstellar medium. By defining an Eddington luminosity in cosmic rays, we show that the star formation rate of a given galaxy is limited by its mass content and the cosmic ray mean free path. When the cosmic ray luminosity

Observations of ultra-high energy cosmic rays
The status of measurements of the arrival directions, mass composition and energy spectrum of cosmic rays above 3 x 10^18 eV (3 EeV) is reviewed using reports presented at the 29th International Cosmic Ray Conference held in Pune, India, in August 2005.
