Atmospheric Escape of Close-in Giants around Hot Stars: Far-Ultraviolet Radiation and Photoelectric Heating Effect [PDF]
Atmospheric escape is an important process that controls the long-term evolution of close-in planets. We perform radiation hydrodynamics simulations of photo-evaporation of exoplanets' atmospheres to study the effect of photoelectric heating by far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Specifically, we consider a close-in hot Jupiter around a hot A-star.

Photo‐Assisted Zn‐Iodine Battery via Bifunctional Cathode with Iodine Host and Solar Response Boost
A bifunctional cathode based on BiOI materials is developed for photo‐assisted Zn‐iodine batteries, serving as both an iodine host and a solar‐responsive material. This design enables dual reaction routes involving vacancy‐based iodine storage and reversible two steps iodine redox.

A Laboratory for Magnetized Accretion Disk Model: Ultraviolet and X-ray Emission from Cataclysmic Variable GK Persei [PDF]
We analyze the ultraviolet spectrum of the cataclysmic variable GK Per at maximum light. The flat ultraviolet spectrum in this system requires a truncated inner accretion disk and an unusually flat radial temperature profile. This requirement is not satisfied by any non-magnetic steady or non-steady disk model.

Joule‐assisted nanotherapeutic urethral stent harnesses a smart, biodegradable magnesium stent to orchestrate spatiotemporal theragenerative therapy for urethral strictures. Magnetically induced Joule heating enables on‐demand drug release and bacterial ablation, while simultaneously guiding urothelial regeneration.

Progress in Understanding the Diffuse UV Cosmic Background [PDF]
I report on progress in my ongoing work with Professor Jayant Murthy concerning the origin and nature of the diffuse ultraviolet background radiation over the sky. We have obtained and are reducing a vast trove of Voyager ultraviolet spectrometer observations of the diffuse background shortward of Lyman alpha, including for the first time measurements ...

Formation of globular clusters induced by external ultraviolet radiation II: Three-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics simulations [PDF]
We explore the possibility of the formation of globular clusters under ultraviolet (UV) background radiation. One-dimensional spherical symmetric radiation hydrodynamics (RHD) simulations by Hasegawa et al. have demonstrated that the collapse of low-mass (10^6-10^7 solar masses) gas clouds exposed to intense UV radiation can lead to the formation of ...
