Simultaneous X-Ray and Optical Polarization Observations of the Blazar Mrk 421
We present near-simultaneous X-ray and optical polarization measurements in the high synchrotron peaked (HSP) blazar Mrk 421. The X-ray polarimetric observations were carried out using Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on 2023 December 6.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

2FHL J1745.1–3035: A Newly Discovered, Powerful Pulsar Wind Nebula Candidate
We present a multi-epoch, multi-observatory X-ray analysis for 2FHL J1745.1–3035, a newly discovered very high-energy Galactic source detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) located in close proximity to the Galactic Center ( l = 358.°5319; b = −

Abstract Energetic electron precipitation plays a pivotal role in shaping Earth's radiation belt dynamics and drives significant physical and chemical changes in the upper atmosphere. However, the detailed mechanisms governing the loss of relativistic electrons have remained unclear, largely due to the limited energy coverage and coarse resolution of ...

DOPO‐containing melamine flame retardants improve the flame retardancy, droplet resistance and mechanical properties of WPU. ABSTRACT To improve the flame retardancy of waterborne polyurethane (WPU), two novel DOPO‐containing melamine‐based flame retardants were synthesized by combining Schiff bases (derived from p‐hydroxybenzaldehyde ...

X-Ray Polarization Study of the Neutron Star Low-mass X-Ray Binary GX 349+2
We report the first X-ray polarimetric results of the neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary Z-source GX 349+2 using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). We discovered that the X-ray source was polarized at a polarization degree of PD = 1.1% ±
