Properties of massive stars in four clusters of the VVV survey
, 2015 The evolution of massive stars is only partly understood. Observational constraints can be obtained from the study of massive stars located in young massive clusters.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Carbon‐based piezoelectric materials are systematically categorized based on their structural and functional properties. The mechanisms of stress‐induced charge transfer are elucidated, and their applications are explored across three key domains: piezoelectric catalysis for energy conversion and environmental remediation, piezoelectric biomedical ...

Constraints on possible age spreads within young massive clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
, 2013 Recent studies have shown that the observed main-sequence turn-off (MSTO) in colour-magnitude diagrams of intermediate age (1-2 Gyr) clusters in the LMC are broader than would be nominally expected for a simple stellar population.

The Origin of OB Runaway Stars
, 2011 About 20% of all massive stars in the Milky Way have unusually high velocities, the origin of which has puzzled astronomers for half a century. We argue that these velocities originate from strong gravitational interactions between single stars and ...

Unperceivable Designs of Wearable Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Unperceivable wearable technologies seamlessly integrate into everyone's daily life, for healthcare and Internet‐of‐Things applications. By remaining completely unnoticed both visually and tactilely, by the user and others, they ensure medical privacy and allow natural social interactions.

Thermally Actuated Soft Robotics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review focuses on the recent development of thermally actuated soft robotics, highlighting the four major heating mechanisms, as well as structural designs, thermal management, material innovations, and emerging applications. A summary and outlook section present the current challenges of thermally actuated soft robots and the future directions to

Primordial alignment of elliptical galaxies in intermediate redshift clusters
, 2015 We measure primordial alignments for the red galaxies in the sample of eight massive galaxy clusters in the southern sky from the CLASH-VLT Large Programme, at a median redshift of 0.375.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Biological and biologically‐inspired functional nanostructures with structural, thermal, optical, and sensing applications are reviewed. The role of nanoscale features in biological materials on performance is described, and their blueprints are used for bio‐inspired nanomaterials, synthesized using advanced techniques (i.e., photolithography, bio ...
