DOI: 10.1007/s40544-020-0390-3
Abstract: Based on the conjunction of contact electrification and electrostatic induction, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) can harvest mechanical energy dispersed in our environment. With the characteristics of simple structure, light weight, broad material availability, low cost, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6382/acd97b
Abstract: Horizon-scale images of black holes (BHs) and their shadows have opened an unprecedented window onto tests of gravity and fundamental physics in the strong-field regime. We consider a wide range of well-motivated deviations from classical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.102.123012
Abstract: The Universe is awash with tens-of-MeV neutrinos of all species coming from all past core-collapse supernovae. These have never been observed, but this state of affairs will change in the near future. In the less… read more here.
