This paper presents a novel approach for solving fourth-order phase-field models in brittle fracture mechanics using the Interior Penalty Finite Element Method (IP-FEM). The fourth-order model improves numerical stability and accuracy…
We present Fe K$\beta$ X-ray emission (XES) and Fe K X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of Iron(II)sulfide (FeS) and Iron(II)disulfide (FeS$_2$). While XES and XAS offer different discrimination capabilities for chemical speciation, depending…
We conducted a $369\;{\rm ks}$ NuSTAR observation on the X-ray pulsar Centaurus X-3, which covered two consecutive orbital cycles of the source, including two eclipse durations. We investigated the orbital-phase spectral variability over…
