Observations of Milky Way stars by multiplexed spectroscopic instruments and of gas in nearby galaxies using integral field units have made it possible to measure the abundances of multiple elements in both the interstellar medium and the stars that...
Feb 27, 2026 · Kidney, in vertebrates and some invertebrates, organ that maintains water balance and expels metabolic wastes. Primitive and embryonic kidneys consist of two series of specialized …
Terahertz fields can be dramatically enhanced as they propagate through nanometer-sized slits. The enhancement is mediated by significant accumulation of the induced surface charges on the surrounding metal. This enhancement is shown here to be dynam...

In this work we probe the possibility of high-temperature conventional superconductivity in the boron-carbon system, using ab-initio screening. A database of 320 metastable structures with fixed composition (50$\%$/50$\%$) is generated with the Minim...
Predicting and characterizing the crystal structure of materials is a key problem in materials research and development. We report the results of ab initio LDA/GGA computations for the following systems: AgAu, AgCd, AgMg, AgMo*, AgNa, AgNb*, AgPd,...
A merger origin has been suggested for M83's massive, metal-rich extended HI disk and nuclear starburst. We observe M83's stellar halo to test this idea. We train nearest-neighbor star-galaxy separation on wide-area Subaru imaging with Hubble Space T...
Future tracking detectors, such as those under development for the High Luminosity LHC, will require mechanical structures employing novel materials to reduce mass while providing excellent strength, thermal conductivity, and radiation tolerance. Adh...
Thin metallic shallow spherical diaphragms are being used for measuring pneumatic pressure in process industries. The drift in vertex realized due to application of pressure is transformed into electrical signal and this is calibrated for pressure. W...
An electrical conduit is a tube used to protect and route electrical wiring in a building or structure. Electrical conduit may be made of metal, plastic
The concept of kirigami has been extensively utilized to design deployable structures and reconfigurable metamaterials. Despite heuristic utilization of classical kirigami patterns, the gap between complex kirigami tessellations and systematic design...
We use the energy analysis as a perturbative method to study the effect of electron-radial breathing mode (RBM) phonon interaction on the electrical conductivity of long metallic zigzag carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The band structure of zigzag CNTs is ca...
We study the phase behavior of bowl-shaped particles using computer simulations. These particles were found experimentally to form a meta-stable worm-like fluid phase in which the bowl-shaped particles have a strong tendency to stack on top of each o...
AERIAL definition: 1. a structure made of metal rods or wires that receives or sends out radio or television signals….
The angular intensity distribution of He beams scattered from compact clusters and from diffusion limited aggregates, epitaxially grown on metal surfaces, is investigated theoretically. The purpose is twofold: to distinguish compact cluster structu...
The Echeron Codex is a living, multidimensional system of correspondences that unites science, spirituality, philosophy, and metaphysics into a structured framework. It serves as a master key to under...
There is the possibility in principle that the noncompensated Casimir force exists in open nanosized metal cavities arranged in the form of periodic structures. It is found that when trapezoid cavities are strictly periodic all the Casimir expulsion...
A major challenge in reinforcement learning (RL) is the design of agents that are able to generalize across tasks that share common dynamics. A viable solution is meta-reinforcement learning, which identifies common structures among past tasks to be...
The algebraic approach for provenance tracking, originating in the semiring model of Green et. al, has proven useful as an abstract way of handling metadata. Commutative Semirings were shown to be the "correct" algebraic structure for Union of Conjun...
A one-third monolayer of the heavy metals Sn and Pb deposited on semiconductor substrates can lead to a $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ surface reconstruction, constituting an exciting triangular lattice material platform. A long history of experiments iden...
