Exploring X-Ray Properties of Low-metallicity Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
One of the primary outstanding questions in extragalactic astronomy is the formation and early evolution of the supermassive black holes that are seen in nearly every massive galaxy.

Nitrogen Limitations on Microbial Degradation of Plant Substrates Are Controlled by Soil Structure and Moisture Content

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Mineral nitrogen (N) availability to heterotrophic micro-organisms is known to impact organic matter (OM) decomposition. Different pathways determining the N accessibility depend to a large extent on soil structure.

Strong Proton‐Phonon Coupling Drives Fast Ion Transport in Perovskites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Experimental and computational phonon analysis of ABO3‐type proton conductor BaSnO3 shows that substitution on the B‐site with yttrium forms an imaginary phonon mode which is instrumental for the function as proton conductor. This overcompensates the adverse proton trapping effect of the yttrium.

X-ray rotational modulation of a supersaturated star in IC 2391

open access: yes, 2003
We present evidence of X-ray rotational modulation on VXR45, a young fast rotator star, member of IC 2391. It is a dG9 spectral type star whose rotational period and X-ray luminosity make it a supersaturated star. Our X-ray observation, made with EPIC/PN

Imperfection in Semiconductors Leading to High Performance Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crystalline perfection is typically pursued in semiconductors to enhance device performance. However, through modeling and experimental work, we show that defects can be strategically employed in a specific detection regime to increase sensitivity to extreme values. GaN diodes are demonstrated to effectively detect high‐energy proton beams at fluxes as

Evaluating the Resistance of Bifacial Perovskite Photodetectors to Xenon Ion Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bifacial perovskite photodetectors maintain high efficiency and stability after 231 MeV xenon ion irradiation. Key photodetector parameters remain nearly unchanged at low fluence (1010 nucleons cm−2) and show only moderate degradation at high fluence (1011 nucleons cm−2), highlighting their strong radiation tolerance and suitability for optoelectronic ...
