The Early Release Observations (EROs) of JWST beautifully demonstrate the promise in characterizing universe at cosmic dawn. We analyze ERO spectra three $z \sim 8$ galaxies to determine their metallicities, gas temperatures and ionization.

Excessive oxidative stress, dysregulated immune homeostasis, and disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier are crucial features inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Traditional treatments focusing solely on inflammation resolution remain unsatisfactory. Herein, a yeast-inspired orally administered nanocomposite was developed. First, MD@MPDA core fabricated by integrating manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanozymes onto diallyl trisulfide (H2S prodrug)-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles...

While most of the inter-galactic medium (IGM) today is permeated by ionized hydrogen, it was largely filled with neutral hydrogen for first 700 million years after Big Bang. The process that IGM (cosmic reionization) expected to be spatially inhomogeneous, fainter galaxies playing a significant role. However, we still have only few direct constraints on reionization process. Here report spectroscopic confirmation two and very likely third galaxy in group (hereafter EGS77) at redshift z =...

Hard X-ray emission in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is believed to be produced via inverse Compton scattering by hot and compact coronae near the supermassive black hole. However, origin physical properties of coronae, including geometry, kinematics, dynamics, remain poorly known. In this work, taking [O iv] 25.89 μm line as an isotropic indicator AGNs' intrinsic luminosity, we compare corona between Seyfert 1 Compton-thin 2 galaxies, which are viewed at different inclinations...

Galaxies at high redshifts provide a valuable tool to study cosmic dawn, and therefore it is crucial reliably identify these galaxies. Here, we present an unambiguous first simultaneous detection of both the Lyman-alpha emission Lyman break from z = 7.512+/- 0.004 galaxy, observed in Faint Infrared Grism Survey (FIGS).

Bosonic fields (within suitable mass range) may be collectively generated by rotating black holes through the hole superradiance process. The resulting is surrounded a ``cloud" of particles whose wave function populates superradiant energy level hole. For comparable ratio binary systems, it has been suggested that these clouds often deplete at large separations because mixing effects. As result, not dynamically relevant for and neutron star binaries enter LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA LISA detection...

In this work, we discuss a scenario of micro-Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) associated with high-speed white dwarfs and stellar-mass black holes. It happens at galactic centers, where dwarf orbiting around the massive hole scatters in its early extreme mass-ratio inspiral stage. We estimate formation rate, perform series hydro simulations to investigate amount accreted unbound mass as function impact radius speed, main EM signatures: an X-ray flare (micro-TDE) followed by relatively faint...

Introduction Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) classifies botanical drugs based on their thermal properties (an emic classification system), categorizing them as “cold” (e.g., “clearing heat” for anti-inflammatory effects) or “hot” “warming the middle” metabolic enhancement). However, specific roles of these in restoring gut microbiota dysbiosis remain unclear. This study aimed to explore whether TCM-classified cold and hot differentially restore host physiology antibiotic-treated mice....

Since high-z LAEs, it suggests LAEs likely have larger...

Narrowband imaging is a highly successful approach for finding large numbers of high redshift Lya emitting galaxies (LAEs) up to z~6.6. However, at z>~7 there are as yet only 3 narrowband selected LAEs with spectroscopic confirmations (two z~6.9-7.0, one z~7.3), which hinders extensive studies on cosmic reionization and galaxy evolution this key epoch. We have 23 candidate z~6.9 in COSMOS field the area survey LAGER (Lyman-Alpha Galaxies End Reionization). In work we present followup...
