The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 G106.3+2.7, commonly considered to be a composite supernova remnant (SNR), is characterized by a boomerang-shaped pulsar wind nebula (PWN) and two distinct (“head” and “tail”) regions in the radio band. A discovery of very-high-energy gamma-ray emission (

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The magnetic high entropy oxide perovskite Nd(Cr0.2Mn0.2Fe0.2Co0.2Ni0.2)O3 exhibits a substantially large dielectric constant (εr) at room temperature, which shows distinct anionic and cationic contributions in the form of zero and finite bias peaks, respectively, down to its magnetic transition temperature (Tmag).

Spin‐Orbit Torque Induced by Switchable Crystal Inversion Symmetry Breaking
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An exotic crystal inversion symmetry breaking in SrRuO3/BiFeO3 heterostructure is revealed, and it can be reversibly manipulated by the ferroelectric polarization of BiFeO3. This crystal inversion symmetry breaking can dramatically enhance the spin‐orbit torque efficiency in the SrRuO3 layer by more than 60%, providing an alternative to design an ...

A Monte Carlo Simulation for the X-ray Detection Efficiency of a Multi-Cell Proportional Counter [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998 The X-ray astronomy team of the Korea Astronomy Observatory (KAO) is planning to develop a multi-cell proportional counter, adopting an anti-coincidence method to reduce its internal background. We have developed a Monte Carlo code to determine the X-ray

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Bioresorbable electrochemical sensors face instability in biofluids. Although alloys can mitigate rapid in vivo dissolution, Mo–W remains underexplored for sensing. This work engineers Mo–W films with a nanocrystalline oxide coating, improving stability and enabling reliable oxygen and pH sensing for up to 10 days, highlighting their potential for ...

Evidence for a Fast Soft X-Ray Wind in M82 from XMM-RGS
The Astrophysical JournalStarburst wind models predict that metals and energy are primarily carried out of the disk by hot gas ( T > 10 ^6 K), but the low energy resolution of X-ray CCD observations results in large uncertainties on the mass and energy loading.

An Overview of X-Ray Polarimetry of Astronomical Sources
Galaxies, 2018 We review the history of astronomical X-ray polarimetry based on the author’s perspective, beginning with early sounding-rocket experiments by Robert Novick at Columbia University and his team, of which the author was a member.

Unbiased CLEAN for STIX in Solar Orbiter
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 CLEAN is an iterative deconvolution method for radio and hard-X-ray solar imaging. In a specific step of its pipeline, CLEAN requires the convolution between an idealized version of the instrumental point-spread function (PSF), and a map collecting point

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.The opto‐electronic response of polycrystalline (PEA)2PbBr4 thin films is investigated by correlating macroscopic photodetector performance with nanoscale mapping techniques. Grain boundary density is systematically tuned through crystallization control and linked to device responsivity.
