  1. Turbulent black hole coronae can produce observed X-ray spectra
    Simulations show turbulent black hole coronae generate two-temperature plasmas with extended nonthermal ion distributions while producing observed X-ray spectra.
  2. Laser polarization affects relativistic electron-impact scattering
    Theoretical study derives scattering cross sections for electron-hydrogen collisions in dual orthogonally polarized laser fields, confirming polarization effects and Kroll-Watson sum rule validity.
  3. Shock precursor type changes ion and electron acceleration
    Simulations reveal two distinct regimes in transrelativistic shocks where competing plasma instabilities produce dramatically different particle acceleration efficiencies for ions and electrons.
  4. Low-energy electrons selectively cleave DNA bonds in films
    Study reveals energy-dependent selective bond cleavage in DNA films exposed to low-energy electrons using XPS analysis, showing preferential damage to N-glycosidic and sugar-phosphate bonds.
  5. EIC pseudodata could affect strong coupling estimates
    Global PDF analysis of Electron Ion Collider impact on strong coupling determination across conservative and optimistic experimental scenarios within the MSHT framework.
  6. Visible-light photocatalyst achieves near-complete PFAS defluorination
    Visible-light photocatalytic defluorination of PFAS using stabilized porphyrin radicals achieving near-complete conversion without additives.
