Very-long-baseline interferometry observations have revealed a bright, compact radio component near the center of the expanding shell of supernova 1986J. The component, not present in earlier images, has an inverted radio spectrum different from that of the shell. Such an inversion has not been seen in the spectrum of any other supernova. The new component is likely radio emission associated either with accretion onto a black hole or with the nebula formed around an energetic young neutron star in the center of SN 1986J, which would directly link either a black hole or a neutron star to a modern supernova.

The emerging combination of chemotherapy and radionuclide therapy has been actively investigated to overcome the limitations of monotherapy and augment therapeutic efficacy. However, it remains a challenge to design a single delivery vehicle that can incorporate chemotherapeutics and radionuclides into a compact structure. Here, a chelator DOTA- or NOTA-modified Evans blue conjugated camptothecin molecule (EB-CPT) nanoprodrug was synthesized, which could self-assemble into nanoparticles due to its inherent amphiphilicity.

Recent advancements in Electrowetting on Dielectric (EWOD) systems, such as simplified fabrication, low-voltage actuation, and the development of more reliable materials, are expanding the potential applications of electrowetting actuators. One application of EWOD actuators is in RF devices to enable dynamic reconfiguration and allow real-time adjustments to frequency and bandwidth. In this paper, a method is introduced to actuate a panel using EWOD forces.

Background: The ST response to high frequency EM heating may give an indication of rate of BF in underlying tissue. This novel method, which we have termed REFLO (Rapid Electromagnetic Flow) has potential for applications such as detection of PAD. The method utilizes the relationship between blood flow rate and tissue temperature increase during exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy.

Article Synopsis
- Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief bursts of radio waves from distant galaxies, and their emission mechanisms are still debated, focusing on processes near a central engine versus shocks at large distances.
- Researchers measured two scintillation scales for FRB 20221022A, one linked to the Milky Way and the other to its host galaxy, which allowed them to determine the FRB's emission region size to be less than 3 x 10 kilometers.
- This size contradicts the large-distance model and suggests that the emission likely occurs close to a central compact object, supported by an observed S-shaped polarization angle, indicating a magnetospheric emission process.
