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.

Specific Position of Halogen in Crystalline TADF Scintillators Enables Efficient Triplet Harvesting Through Vibrational Modulation of Spin–Orbit Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Specific ortho‐halogenation transforms crystalline TADF emitters into efficient organic scintillators. Fluorine reduces the effective singlet–triplet separation, while chlorine combines near‐degenerate excited states with vibrational modulation of spin–orbit coupling.

Evidence for a Fast Soft X-Ray Wind in M82 from XMM-RGS

The Astrophysical Journal
Starburst 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.

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

The Influence of Mesoscale Particle Structure on the Electrode Degradation and Resultant Electrochemistry of Lithium Ion Cells With Nickel Rich Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide Positive Electrodes

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Milled polycrystalline NMC811 cathode (MPC NMC) with smaller secondary particle and higher surface area had 1) greater cathode tortuosity, 2) reduced surface Ni on the cycled MPC cathodes consistent with surface reconstruction, and 3) increased Ni deposition from cathode‐anode crosstalk, manifesting in lower functional capacity and higher impedance ...

Light‐Imprinted Chirality in Nanomaterials: From Principles to Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Light‐induced chirality represents a transformative paradigm for fabricating chiral nanostructures. This review provides a comprehensive framework encompassing light‐based strategies for imprinting and tuning chirality in nanomaterials, which guides researchers in harnessing light to create next‐generation functional materials.

Predicting dialyzer fiber blocking is hard due to high intrapatient variability and limited utility of thrombin generation markers

Scientific Reports
To date, no reliable blood-based or instrumental parameters are available to quantify dialyzer fiber blocking during hemodialysis. The only accurate method remains micro-computed tomography (µCT) imaging of the hemodialyzer post-dialysis, a labor ...

Investigating Time Variability of X-Ray Absorption in Swift GRBs

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The existence of excess absorption in the X-ray spectra of GRBs is well known, but the primary location of the absorbing material is still uncertain. To gain more knowledge about this, we have performed a time-resolved analysis of the X-ray spectra of ...

In Situ Pseudo‐Halide Diffusion Enables Buried Interface Regulation and Crystallinity Enhancement in Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Thermally activated LiHCOO induces in situ pseudo‐halide diffusion, promoting buried interface strain release and perovskite crystallization. The monoclinic LiHCOO phase forms an open framework structure that enhances HCOO− diffusion and drives interfacial restructuring.

HAWC, VERITAS, Fermi-LAT, and XMM-Newton Follow-up Observations of the Unidentified Ultra-high-energy Gamma-Ray Source LHAASO J2108+5157

The Astrophysical Journal
We report observations of the ultra-high-energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J2108+5157, utilizing VERITAS, HAWC, Fermi-LAT, and XMM-Newton. VERITAS has collected ∼40 hr of data that we used to set ULs to the emission above 200 GeV.
