Homogeneous and complete samples of brown dwarfs are needed for various kinds of studies: kinematic studies of the Galaxy, studies of binary stars with brown dwarfs, refinement of the low-mass end of the initial mass function, etc. According to various estimates, brown dwarfs can make up to 25% of the population of the Galaxy; however, the discovery of brown dwarfs with spectroscopic methods is extremely labour-intensive. In this paper, we present the cross-identification of the known nearest brown dwarfs from the 2021 list with the DES optical survey and the creation of photometric rules based on the detection of brown dwarfs in three surveys: WISE, 2MASS, and DES. Moreover, we present different photometric rules for each of the three families of brown dwarfs: bright, transit, and faint. No such division has been made yet.

Resonators based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) using two-dimensional (2D) materials with high-quality factors and excellent electrical control are critical for tunable coherent phonon dynamics, resonant sensors and wireless communications. However, their performance is fundamentally limited by the lack of a unified framework governing energy dissipation mechanisms and their electrical tunability. Here, we synergistically modulate both ...

Thermoelectric materials, long explored for energy harvesting and thermal sensing, convert heat directly into electrical signals. Extending their application to the terahertz (THz) frequency range opens opportunities for low-noise, bias-free THz detection, yet conventional thermoelectrics lack the sensitivity required for practical devices. Thermoelectric coefficients can be strongly enhanced near van Hove singularities (VHS), though these ...

This paper investigates one possible solution to the problem of self-interference cancellation (SIC) arising in the design of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communication systems. Self-interference cancellation is performed in the digital domain using multilayer nonlinear models adapted via gradient-based optimization. The presence of local minima and saddle points during the adaptation of multilayer models limits the ...

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm. This background will pose a serious problem, when measuring spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background, in particular, the mu-distortion, which presumably has an intensity of less than ...

This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the temperature-dependent thermally stimulated conductivity and photoconductivity of vacuum-annealed thin films based on core–shell CdSe/CdS nanoplatelets passivated with oleic acid ligands. Controlled thermal annealing under vacuum conditions leads to a substantial increase in both dark and photoinduced conductivity, which is primarily attributed to partial desorption of the ligands. ...

Distance dependences of interstellar extinction AV(d) for a number of high-latitude areas of the southern sky were obtained using the data of the RAVE DR6 spectroscopic survey and the Gaia DR2/EDR3 astrometric survey. These dependencies were approximated by the classical barometric function (cosecant law). Function parameters were then approximated by spherical functions. The resulting analytical ...
