I have prompted Google Gemini (with Nano Banana engine) to generate the image of historical Jesus by using scientific data on him and ignoring iconography
Here, we see a typical wandering preacher from Galilee of the first years AD. This is a plausible image of how the real Jesus might look like

On-chip room-temperature CW lasing from a III-V nanowire integrated with a Si photonic crystal platform
We report the demonstration of continuous-wave (CW) lasing at room temperature from a III-V semiconductor nanowire integrated into a Si photonic crystal (PhC) cavity. Conventional hybrid nanowire lasers [M. Takiguchi. et.al., APL Photonics, 2, 046106 (2017)], which typically feature circular nanowire-cross-sections, suffer from a weak optical confinement, preventing CW lasing under ambient conditions. To overcome this limitation, we fabricated nanowires with rectangular cross-sections via dry e…

IPv6 on average ~2ms lower latency than IPv4, and has been pretty much since 2015.
There are many reasons why, including things like usually on newer equipment, and no CGNAT.
Sometimes counter-intuitive as IPv6 headers are larger than IPv4 ones.

Effect of crystallographic texture on dealloying kinetics and composition of nanoporous gold surface
Nanoporous metals allow for tailoring composition and surface-to-volume ratio, both aspects critical for applications in catalysis. Here, Ag70Au30 (2 at. %) films with a face-centered cubic structure were deposited at 400°C, either {111}-textured or randomly oriented. Upon chemical dealloying, atom probe tomography of the nanoporous structure reveals that the textured film retains a up to 2.7 times higher Ag concentration within the ligaments compared to the randomly oriented film that exhibit…

Studies of ultrafast dynamics in substrate-free nanoparticles at ELI using Timepix3 optical camera
We present a novel application of the Timepix3 optical camera (Tpx3Cam) for investigating ultrafast dynamics in substrate-free nanoparticles at the Extreme Light Infrastructure European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ELI ERIC). The camera, integrated into an ion imaging system based on a micro-channel plate (MCP) and a fast P47 scintillator, enables individual time-stamping of incoming ions with nanosecond timing precision and high spatial resolution. The detector successfully captured las…
