Article Synopsis
- Recent advances in bio-inspired navigation focus on skylight polarization, which has potential applications in orientation sensors, but machine learning requires extensive datasets for training.
- A new dataset was created from a long-term setup using a Division-of-Focal-Plane polarization camera to collect polarimetric images of the sky, ensuring data diversity across various weather conditions.
- This two-month dataset, featuring manually annotated images captured at 10-minute intervals with varying exposure times, is now publicly available to support further research in this field.
Article Synopsis
- * A study of 71 National Cancer Institute-designated centers revealed that 78.9% shared emergency preparedness information, but only 23.9% addressed climate-driven disasters specifically.
- * The findings suggest that cancer centers have a significant opportunity to enhance knowledge and strategies for disaster preparedness in the context of climate change adaptation.
In photonics and emerging fields of quantum and topological materials, increasing demands are placed upon the state and control of electromagnetic fields. Dielectric multilayer materials may be designed and optimized to possess extremely sharp spectral and angular photonic resonances allowing for the creation of fields orders of magnitude larger than the exciting field. With enhancements of 10 and higher, the extreme nature of these resonances places high constraints on the statistical properties of the physical and optical characteristics of the materials.

The gate of the HEMT device is functionalized using a Pt catalyst for gas detection. We found that the performance of the sensors is enhanced at a temperature of 600 °C, and the measured sensitivity to 900 ppm-NO, 900 ppm-NO₂ and 15 ppm-NH₃ is 24%, 38.

Promoter complexity differs strikingly between IE/E genes and L genes. IE and E promoters contain cis-regulating sequences upstream of a TATA box, whereas L promoters comprise a unique cis element.
