Millisecond pulsars in tight binaries have recently challenged our understanding of physical processes governing the evolution and interaction between astrophysical plasma electromagnetic fields. Transitional systems that showed changes from rotation-powered to accretion-powered states vice versa bridged populations radio accreting millisecond pulsars, eventually demonstrating evolutionary link...

This work experimentally studied the convective flow and heat transfer characteristics of a novel nanostructured heat transfer fluid: "ethanol/polyalphaolefin nanoemulsion" flowing through 12 circular minichannels of 1-mm diameter each. Ethanol/polyalphaolefin nanoemulsion is a thermodynamically stable system formed by dispersing ethanol into a mixture of "polyalphaolefin (PAO)" and surfactants...
