The 2023 Flight of the Faint Intergalactic-medium Redshifted Emission Balloon
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesThe second iteration of the Faint Intergalactic-medium Redshifted Emission Balloon (FIREBall-2) is a UV multiobject spectrograph designed to detect emission from the circumgalactic and circumquasar medium at low redshifts ( z < 1).

Designing chiral organic small molecules for circularly polarized light detection via group theory
InfoMat, EarlyView.The chiral point group determines the arrangement of the μ‐m of chiral organic small molecules, thereby influencing their chiral photoelectric properties. In particular, chiral molecules with the D2 point group can effectively align the μ‐m to be either 0° or 180°, an effective strategy for high‐performance circularly polarized light photodetectors ...

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.Front contact selection governs interfacial stability in CdTe‐based (Cd(Se,Te)) solar cells on ultra‐thin space‐qualified cover glass. Optimized TCO/emitter combinations suppress interdiffusion and deliver up to 16.2% AM0 efficiency with high specific power, demonstrating strong potential for lightweight space photovoltaics.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

The Top Ten Astronomical 'breakthroughs' of the 20th century
Communicating Astronomy with the Public Journal, 2007 Astronomy was revolutionized in the 20th century. The electron was discovered in 1897 and this transformed spectroscopy and introduced plasma and magnetohydrodynamic physics and astro-chemistry.

The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe report the direct detection of Lyman continuum (LyC) emission from nine galaxies and one active galactic nucleus at z ∼ 1.1–1.6 in the GOODS-North field using deep observations from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on board AstroSat.

Does ultraviolet astronomy have a future? [PDF]
Astronomy and Geophysics, 2004 Recent news of the cancellation of further servicing missions for HST and the recent failure of its prime UV spectrograph has brought into focus the limited future for UV astronomy, without rapid action. If this situation does not change, the routine access to the far-UV that we have enjoyed for more than 25 years, since the launch of IUE, will end by ...

Small, EarlyView.Single‐particle‐level investigation using scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveals electronic structure and type‐I band alignment of individual CsPbBr3@FAPbBr3 core‐crown nanoplatelet. Crown passivation suppresses deep trap states by 47% and markedly improves electrical stability under repeated bias sweeps.

Coronal Magnetometry with EUV Permitted Lines
The Astrophysical JournalA major challenge in solar physics is to obtain empirical information on the magnetic field of the million-degree plasma of the solar corona. To this end, we need observables of the solar radiation sensitive to the coronal magnetic field.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Lepidoptera are highly sensitive to changes in their surroundings, making them excellent indicators of ecosystem health; however, surveying adult butterflies of certain species presents challenges. Nocturnal surveying of larvae and pupae using ultraviolet light (UV) is gaining popularity as a simple, inexpensive, and non‐invasive method.
