Can We Find the Emission Mechanism Behind the Extremely Bright GRB 230812B?
Utkarsh Pathak, Sameer K. Patil, Hitesh Tanenia +23
GRB 230812B is a bright long-duration GRB with a luminous, long-lived afterglow and an AstroSat/CZTI polarization measurement during the prompt phase, enabling a joint study of its…
Scaling Properties of the Correlator: Constraints on Background and CME-Sensitive Charge Separation in Heavy-Ion Collisions
Roy A. Lacey, Niseem Magdy
The scaling properties of the correlator are used to investigate charge separation associated with the chiral magnetic effect (CME) in +Au, +Au, Ru+Ru, Zr+Zr, and Au+Au…
Isotopically enriched epitaxial CaWO thin films for Er spin-photon quantum interfaces
Hanlin Tang, Kidae Shin, Ashwin K. Boddeti +10
Rare earth ion (REI)-doped oxide thin films are attractive for the application of quantum interconnects due to their stable optical levels and scalability. Among them, Er$^…
Single-material 4D-printed shape-morphing structures via spatially patterned strain trapping
S M Asif Iqbal, Hang Zhang, Lin Yang +3
A single-step, single-material 4D printing method is developed for programmable structures featuring spatially patterned strain trapping for one-way actuation. This approach enable…
Long GRB 250916A: an Off-axis Powerlaw Jet with Thermal Cocoon
Utkarsh Pathak, Sameer K. Patil, Hitesh Tanenia +22
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit precursor emission episodes preceding the main emission, with a quiescent period in between. The properties of the precursor emission and the d…
Effect of front surface engineering on high energy electron, X-ray and heavy ion generation from Relativistic laser interaction with thick high-Z targets
J. Twardowski, C. Kuz, A. S. Bogale +20
Relativistic lasers on solid targets generate hot electrons, and other secondary particles. These particles can be used for radiography, cancer therapy, or isochoric heating. A low…
