Bondi mass with a cosmological constant by Saw, Vee-Liem

“…Furthermore, with MΛ=MB, we show that for purely quadrupole gravitational waves given off by the isolated system (i.e., when the “Bondi news” σo comprises only the l=2 components of the spherical harmonics with spin-weight 2) the energy carried away is manifestly positive definite for the Λ>0 case. …”

Design and development of a biopolymer microfiber fabrication device by Yap, Yi-Liang.

“…Molten polymer within a holding cup with a tiny orifice below is drawn by a needle and stuck onto a spinning mandrel for collection. As the melt is pulled from the orifice, extensional flow causes the thinning in the melt diameter and the atmosphere cools the melt down into a fiber before it is collected on the mandrel. …”
