X-ray detectors play a pivotal role in development and advancement of humankind, from far-reaching impact in medicine to furthering the ability to observe distant objects in outer space. While other electronics show the ability to adapt to flexible and lightweight formats, state-of-the-art X-ray detectors rely on materials requiring bulky and fragile configurations, severely limiting their applications. Lead halide perovskites is one of the most rapidly advancing novel materials with success in the field of semiconductor devices.

- This paper develops a new method to study how air dynamics contribute to ice melting in caves, focusing on the Leupa ice cave (LIC) in the southeastern Alps.
- It utilizes advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models to assess factors like air circulation, ice properties, and heat exchange between air and ice, revealing complex interactions that affect melting.
- The findings predict an initial ice thickness reduction of 4 cm per year at LIC, with expectations of accelerated melting, and propose that this methodology can be applied to other similar cave environments to analyze ice evolution.
