Ultra‐Low‐L Sub‐MeV Electron Microbursts During the May 2024 Super Storm
Abstract During the May 2024 super storm, we identified sub‐second microburst‐type relativistic electron precipitation events at McIlwain's L∼2 $L\sim 2$ in low‐Earth orbit using the Gamma‐ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) onboard the CALorimetric Electron Telescope on the International Space Station.

Recent Progress and Future Prospects of LWIR T2SL InAs/GaSb Detectors on GaAs
InAs/GaSb LWIR type‐II superlattices (T2SLs) on GaAs substrates are cost‐effective and offer higher yield. However, due to a relatively large lattice mismatch, a high density of threading dislocations is created, which is detrimental to device performance.

Investigating Model Dependencies for Obscured Active Galactic Nuclei: A Case Study of NGC 3982
X-ray spectroscopy of heavily obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) offers a unique opportunity to study the circumnuclear environment of accreting supermassive black holes.

A real‐time, non‐contact photoplethysmography (PPG) system based on InAs colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) synthesized via a seedless injection synthesis is demonstrated. The measured oxygen saturation shows considerable agreement with commercial PPG devices.

Chandra Follow-up Observations of Swift-BAT-selected AGNs III
The cosmic X-ray background (CXB) is dominated by the obscured and unobscured coronal light of active galactic nuclei (AGN). At energies below 10 keV, the CXB can be well explained by models taking into account the known AGN and the observed distribution

Inspired by natural amino acid polymer‐melanin systems, this study strategically incorporated tellurocysteine to develop advanced radiation‐shielding materials. This approach transformed the primary interaction mechanism between melanin‐based materials and incident photons from Compton scattering to the photoelectric effect. Tellurocysteine‐polymerized

X-Ray Spectra and Time Variability of Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]
The X-ray spectra of broad line active galactic nuclei (AGN) of all types (Seyfert I's, NELG's, broadline radio galaxies) are well fit by a power law in the .5 to 100 keV band of man energy slope alpha = .68 + or - .15. There is, as yet, no strong evidence for time variability of this slope in a given object.

Testing Physical and Phenomenological Models to Explain the Origin of the Soft Excess in Type-1 AGN
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) exhibit an excess of X-ray emission below ∼1 keV compared to the 2–10 keV continuum extrapolation. This feature is commonly named soft excess, and its origin is currently debated for type-1 AGN.

Abstract The 2021–2022 Fukushima‐Oki earthquakes in northeastern Japan provide a valuable opportunity to deepen our understanding of intraslab earthquakes generated by the reactivation of subducted outer‐rise bending faults. This study integrates high‐resolution seismic velocity models with numerical modeling results to investigate the roles of slab ...
