Optical Detection of Volatile Organic Compounds: A Review of Methods and Functionalized Sensing Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The focus on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detection is dictated by the increasing awareness of their impact on human health. In addition, VOCs are increasingly considered novel for early diagnosis of diseases. Among various types of VOC sensor devices, optical detectors play an essential role, offering excellent versatility, fast response time ...

Probing satellite haloes with weak gravitational lensing [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012
We demonstrate the possibility of detecting tidal stripping of dark matter subhalos within galaxy groups using weak gravitational lensing. We have run ray-tracing simulations on galaxy catalogues from the Millennium Simulation to generate mock shape catalogues. The ray-tracing catalogues assume a halo model for galaxies and groups, using various models

The Hall Effects of Vortex Light in Optical Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This article models optical materials as curved spacetime to investigate light propagation, finding that the deflection angle for light with spin σ and intrinsic orbital angular momentum ℓ follows ϑ ∝ 2σ + ℓ$\vartheta \propto 2 \text{&sgr; } + ℓ$.

Modeling the Impacts of Galaxy Intrinsic Alignments on Weak Lensing Peak Statistics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Weak gravitational lensing (WL) peak statistics capture cosmic nonlinear structures and can provide additional cosmological information complementary to cosmic shear two-point correlation analyses.

Anisotropic Second‐ and Third‐Harmonic Hermite–Gaussian Beam Generation with NbOI2 Holograms

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
Anisotropic second‐ and third‐harmonic Hermite–Gaussian (HG) beam generation is demonstrated with ultrathin NbOI2 grating holograms to produce the nonlinear HG01 and HG10 modes with high anisotropy ratios. The relative magnitudes of the second‐ and third‐order nonlinear susceptibility tensor elements of NbOI2 crystal are extracted. These demonstrations

Weak Lensing of the Cosmic Microwave Background by Foreground Gravitational Waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Weak lensing distortion of the background cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization patterns by the foreground density fluctuations is well studied in the literature.

Weak Gravitational Lensing and Its Cosmological Applications [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2008
Weak gravitational lensing is a unique probe of the dark side of the universe: It provides a direct way to map the distribution of dark matter around galaxies and clusters of galaxies as well as on cosmological scales. Furthermore, the measurement of the weak lensing–induced distortions of the shapes of distant galaxies is a potentially powerful probe

Energy Symmetry Breaking of Dirac and Weyl Fermions in Magnetized Spinning Conical Geometries

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Exact solutions for relativistic fermions in magnetized, spinning conical geometries reveal defect‐induced symmetry breaking between fermion and antifermion energies. Energy levels depend on the magnetic field, background geometry, and fractionalized spin. When the defect's spin dominates, quantum effects diminish.

Cluster Lensing Mass Inversion (CLUMI+): Combining Dynamics and Weak Lensing around Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present clumi+ , a self-consistent, multiprobe methodology for reconstructing the mass distribution in and around galaxy clusters by combining gravitational lensing and dynamical observations. Building on the joint likelihood framework of K.

First test of Verlinde's theory of emergent gravity using weak gravitational lensing measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Verlinde (2016) proposed that the observed excess gravity in galaxies and clusters is the consequence of Emergent Gravity (EG). In this theory the standard gravitational laws are modified on galactic and larger scales due to the displacement of dark ...
