Objective: The purpose of this study is to accurately monitor temperature during microwave hyperthermia. We propose a temperature estimation model BP-Nakagami based on neural network for Nakagami distribution.
Methods: In this work, we designed the microwave hyperthermia experiment of fresh ex vivo pork tissue and phantom, collected ultrasonic backscatter data at different temperatures, modeled these data using Nakagami distribution, and calculated Nakagami distribution parameter m.
The goal of Project GAUSS (Genesis of Asteroids and evolUtion of the Solar System) is to return samples from the dwarf planet Ceres. Ceres is the most accessible candidate of ocean worlds and the largest reservoir of water in the inner Solar System. It shows active volcanism and hydrothermal activities in recent history.

Previous reports revealed that ion conducting pathways within ceramic-polymer composite electrolytes mainly occur at ceramic particles and the ceramic-polymer interface. Herein, one facile strategy toward ceramic particles' alignment and assembly induced by an external alternating-current (AC) electric field is presented.
