Scientific Objectives of Einstein Telescope

Bangalore Suryanarayana Sathyaprakash, +225 more
TL;DR: The advanced interferometer network will herald a new era in observational astronomy, and there is a very strong science case to go beyond the advanced detector network and build detectors that operate in a frequency range from 1 Hz-10 kHz, with sensitivity a factor ten better in amplitude as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Synthesis of Carbon-Doped TiO2–Bronze Nanowires as Anode Materials for High Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both the wire geometry and the presence of carbon doping contribute to the high electrochemical performance of carbon-doped TiO2-bronze nanowires, which evidenced remarkably higher capacities and superior rate capability over the undoped Nanowires.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homotypic targeting and drug delivery in glioblastoma cells through cell membrane-coated boron nitride nanotubes.

TL;DR: An innovative drug-loaded nanocarrier with improved targeting properties based on the homotypic recognition of GBM cells is presented and it is demonstrated as Dox-CM-BNNTs are able to specifically target and kill G BM cells in vitro, leaving unaffected healthy brain cells, upon successful crossing an in vitro blood-brain barrier model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction of moisture sensitivity of PbS quantum dot solar cells by incorporation of reduced graphene oxide

TL;DR: In this article, a solution-processed PbS quantum dot solar cell, consisting of a PBS-silane functionalized reduced graphene oxide (PbS-rGO) layer on top of the absorber film, was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colloidal Synthesis of Cuprite (Cu2O) Octahedral Nanocrystals and Their Electrochemical Lithiation

TL;DR: A facile colloidal route to prepare octahedral-shaped cuprite (Cu2O) nanocrystals (NCs) of ∼40 nm in size is reported that exploits a new reduction pathway, i.e., the controlled reduction of a cupric ion by acetylacetonate directly to cuprite.
