Kelvin–Helmholtz vortices at the magnetopause during northward IMF: multi-satellite observations of energy transport and plasma redistribution

The Kelvin–Helmholtz (KH) instability is a fundamental plasma process in many astrophysical environments; its vortices facilitate solar wind energy transport and plasma mixing. We investigate the energy flux density distribution and fluctuations of a typical KH vortex event obser...

Electro-mechanical response of TSV-RDL interconnects under electron irradiation

Purpose Through-silicon-via (TSV) and redistribution-layer (RDL) interconnects are essential for high-density three-dimensional (3D)/2.5D integration in aerospace microsystems. However, their reliability under energetic electron irradiation remains insufficiently understood, part...
