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 (

Chiral Phonon–Driven Ultrafast Spin Currents in a Non‐Magnetic Ferroelectric
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Broadband terahertz emission spectroscopy shows signatures of ultrafast spin‐current generation in non‐magnetic ferroelectric β$\beta$’‐In2Se3${\rm In}_2{\rm Se}_3$. Reversal of the emitted field upon sample inversion and substitution of Pt with W indicates spin‐Hall‐mediated charge conversion, while polarization‐resolved measurements reveal ...

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.

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

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.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Remote catalytic dehydrogenation enables the direct growth of monolayer amorphous carbon on a 2‐inch sapphire wafer by thermal CVD. Spatial separation of the catalyst from the growth substrate eliminates metallic residue and post‐growth processing, yielding a wafer‐scale uniform film with a random polygonal sp2‐hybridized carbon network that exhibits ...

Effect of Nitrogen Doping on the Proton‐Irradiation Stability of Carbon Nanowalls
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Proton irradiation effects in carbon nanowalls are systematically compared with nitrogen‐doped counterparts over a wide fluence range. While both systems maintain structural integrity, nitrogen incorporation alters the functional response under irradiation.

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

TeV gamma-ray emission from accreting binary pulsars [PDF]
, 1990 The high-mass X-ray binary SMC X-1 has been observed during the interval 1986-1989 at a threshold γ-ray energy of 0.4 TeV using the University of Durham Mark III air Cerenkov telescope at Narrabri.
