A new report lists the world’s 25 most endangered primates. Most people have never heard of them.
Founder’s Briefs: An occasional series where Mongabay founder Rhett Ayers Butler shares analysis, perspectives and story summaries. A new report, “Primates in Peril: The World’s 25 Most Endangered Primates,” catalogs the species closest to the brink. Compiled by more than 100 scientists and conservationists, it’s a stark warning: without urgent action, some of our closest […]

Synchrotron light source focused X-ray detection with LGADs, AC-LGADs and TI-LGADs
The response of Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGADs), a type of thin silicon detector with internal gain, to X-rays of energies between 6-16~keV was characterized at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL). The utilized beamline at SSRL was 7-2, with a nominal beam size of 30~$μ$m, repetition rate of 500~MHz, and with an energy dispersion $ΔE/E$ of $10^{-4}$. Multi-channel LGADs, AC-LGADs, and TI-LGADs of different thicknesses and gain layer configurations from Hamamatsu Photonics …

Rethinking Backbone Design for Lightweight 3D Object Detection in LiDAR
Recent advancements in LiDAR-based 3D object detection have significantly accelerated progress toward the realization of fully autonomous driving in real-world environments. Despite achieving high detection performance, most of the approaches still rely on a VGG-based or ResNet-based backbone for feature exploration, which increases the model complexity. Lightweight backbone design is well-explored for 2D object detection, but research on 3D object detection still remains limited. In this work,…

Understanding Flow Behaviors of Supercooled Liquids by Embodying Solid-Liquid Duality at Particle Level
Supercooled liquids exhibit intricate flow behaviors, which progressively become nonlinear as flow rate increases. Conceptually, this complexity can be understood by the solid-liquid duality in Maxwell's understanding of materials' response to external load. Nevertheless, the microscopic foundation of this duality in supercooled liquids remains elusive, thereby impeding the modeling of flow behaviors from a microscopic viewpoint. The existence of dynamic heterogeneity adds to this difficulty. T…
