Shape Models of Lucy Targets (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus from Disk-integrated Photometry

We use our new light curves, along with historical data, to determine the rotation state, photometric properties, and convex shape models of the targets of the Lucy mission (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus. We determine a retrograde spin for both targets, ...

A new characterization approach to study the mechanical behavior of silicon nanowires

Yusuf Leblebici, Zuhal Tasdemir, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani, Mustafa Yilmaz

This work proposes a new approach to characterize the mechanical properties of nanowires based on a combination of nanomechanical measurements and models. Silicon nanowires with a critical dimension of 90 nm and a length of 8 mu m obtained through a monoli ...

A parameter-free mechanistic model of the adhesive wear process of rough surfaces in sliding contact

Jean-François Molinari, Tobias Brink, Lucas Henri Galilée Frérot

In order to develop predictive wear laws, relevant material parameters and their influence on the wear rate need to be identified. Despite decades of research, there is no agreement on the mathematical form of wear equations and even the simplest models, s ...

Thermal coarsening of individual titanate nanowires and their assemblies: Surface vs. bulk diffusion

László Forró, Luca Rossi, Endre Horvath, Sergiy Katrych, Massimo Spina, Laurent Syavoch Bernard, Xavier Berdat

The thermal coarsening of titanate nanowires was investigated from room temperature to 1000 degrees C by AFM, SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. Phase transformation kinetics and the external morphology were studied in two configurations: i) as individual an ...

Retention of E. coli and water on the skin after liquid contact

Tamar Kohn, Timothy R. Julian

The frequent contact people have with liquids containing pathogenic microorganisms provides opportunities for disease transmission. In this work, we quantified the transfer of bacteria—using E. coli as a model- from liquid to skin, estimated liquid retenti ...

TASH: Toolbox for the Automated Segmentation of Heschl's gyrus

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Auditory cortex volume and shape differences have been observed in the context of phonetic learning, musicianship and dyslexia. Heschl's gyrus, which includes primary auditory cortex, displays large anatomical variability across individuals and hemispheres ...

Quantification of stored red blood cell fluctuations by time-lapse holographic cell imaging

Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Pierre Marquet, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

We propose methods to quantitatively calculate the fluctuation rate of red blood cells with nanometric axial and millisecond temporal sensitivity at the single-cell level by using time-lapse holographic cell imaging. For this quantitative analysis, cell me ...

Mapping cortical brain asymmetry in 17,141 healthy individuals worldwide via the ENIGMA Consortium

Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez

Hemispheric asymmetry is a cardinal feature of human brain organization. Altered brain asymmetry has also been linked to some cognitive and neuropsychiatric disorders. Here, the ENIGMA (Enhancing NeuroImaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis) Consortium pres ...

Cortical morphology development in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome at ultra-high risk of psychosis

Maude Schneider, Marie Schaer, Daniela Maria Zöller, Maria Carmela Padula

Background. Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) present a high risk of developing psychosis. While clinical and cognitive predictors for the conversion towards a full-blown psychotic disorder are well defined and largely used in practice, neu ...

Enhancing Mass Transport in Redox Flow Batteries by Tailoring Flow Field and Electrode Design

Christopher Raymond Dennison

In this study, we investigate the mass transport effects of various flow field designs paired with raw and laser perforated carbon paper electrodes in redox flow batteries (RFBs). Previously, we observed significant increases in peak power density and limi ...
