Abstract Although chirality has been recognized as an essential entity for life, it still remains a big mystery how the homochirality in nature emerged biomolecules. Certain achiral motifs are known to assemble into chiral nanostructures. In rare cases, their absolute geometries enantiomerically biased by mirror symmetry breaking. Here we report first example of asymmetric catalysis using symmetry-broken helical nanoribbon ligand. We obtain this from benzoic acid appended...

Abstract The unluckiest star orbits a supermassive black hole elliptically. Every time it reaches the pericenter, shallowly enters tidal radius and gets partially tidally disrupted, producing series of flares. Confirmation repeated partial disruption event (pTDE) requires not only evidence to rule out other types transients but also proof that one is involved, as TDEs from multiple stars can produce similar In this Letter, we report discovery pTDE, AT 2022dbl. quiescent galaxy at z = 0.0284,...

A quantum dot infrared photodetector (QDIP) consisting of self-assembled InGaAs dots has been demonstrated. Responsivity 3.25 mA/W at 9.2 μm was obtained for nonpolarized incident light on the detector with a 45° angle facet 60 K. The QDIPs exhibit some unique electro-optic characteristics such as strong negative differential photoconductance effect and blueshift response peak wavelength.

Over-luminous type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show peculiar observational features, for which an explosion of a super-massive white dwarf (WD) beyond the classical Chandrasekhar-limiting mass has been suggested, largely based on their high luminosities and slow light-curve evolution. However, features are diverse, with few extremely whose origins have not clarified; strong persisting C II lines, late-time accelerated luminosity decline red spectra, sub-day time-scale initial flash clearly...

The Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) is a dedicated photometric surveying facility built jointly by the University of Science and Technology China (USTC) Purple Mountain Observatory (PMO). Since many its scientific objectives rely on near-real-time data for effective analysis, prompt processing WFST images great significance. To meet this need, we adapted Rubin Legacy Space Time (LSST) science pipelines to handle collected WFST. This paper presents complete workflow, from ingestion raw...

Wide-field surveys have markedly enhanced the discovery and study of solar system objects (SSOs). The 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) represents foremost facility dedicated to optical time-domain in northern hemisphere. To fully exploit WFST's capabilities for SSO detection, we developed a heliocentric-orbiting processing (HOPS) tailored identifying these objects. This integrates HelioLinC3D, an algorithm well suited WFST survey cadence, characterized by revisiting same sky...
