"What makes the Planetary Gap in a Proto-Planetary Disk wide?"
Marbaniang et al. (2025), Physics Frontiers (Vol.-I, pp: 41-45)
Simulations of two planets with disparate masses orbiting a central star demonstrate their influence on gap formation within proto-planetary disks. The results indicate that the more massive planet efficiently opens gaps, with the gap width modulated by the relative positioning of the lower-mass companion.ย

"Study of X(3872)โJ/๐๐พ and Search for X(3872)โ๐(2S)๐พ using the Belle and the Belle II Detectors"
Chutia & Bhardwaj (2025), Physics Frontiers (Vol.-I, pp: 55-57)
This study investigates the radiative decay of the exotic state X(3872) into J/๐๐พ and searches for its decay into ๐(2S)๐พ, utilizing B-meson data collected by the Belle and Belle II detectors at the ฯ(4S) resonance. To ensure accuracy, the decay Bโ๐c1,c2K is used as a calibration mode, and the branching fraction of ๐c2 โJ/๐๐พ is measured. Preliminary findings from Monte Carlo simulations are presented, with the analysis leveraging the full Belle dataset of integrated luminosity 711fb^(-1) and the processed Belle II data available to date.

"Synthesis of PVA/ZnS/ZnO:Fe Nanoparticles and Their Characterization by Chemical Precipitation Technique"
Gogoi & Bhattacharjee (2025), Physics Frontiers (Vol.-I, pp: 105-109)
PVA/ZnS/ZnO:Fe nanocomposites were synthesized via chemical precipitation and characterized using UV-vis, PL, XRD, SEM, EDAX, and TEM. Results confirm nanoparticle formation with a blue-shifted absorption edge, a calculated band gap, and nanorod-like structures observed in SEM images.

"Thermal Instability Simulation using Flux-Corrected-Transport"
Sarkar & Bora (2025), Physics Frontiers (Vol.-I, pp: 126-128)
The evolutionary dynamics of structure formation in the interstellar medium due to thermal instability are studied using Flux-Corrected-Transport simulations, emphasizing thermal conductivity. Linear analysis verifies wave and condensation instability modes across various density and temperature gradients. Nonlinear instabilities evolve into gas clouds driven by radiative heat loss, with thermal conductivity significantly impacting coalescence formation.ย

"Bamboo-derived Biochar as an Efficient Sorbent Carbon Nanomaterial for Organic Water Contaminant"
Sarma & Baro (2025), Physics Frontiers (Vol.-I, pp: 131-133)
Biochar, derived from the pyrolysis of biomass, has gained attention for its potential in environmental protection due to its high porosity, large surface area, and stability. In this study, bamboo-derived biochar prepared with ZnClโ was used to investigate its adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB). The adsorption efficiency was determined by measuring the difference between initial and equilibrium MB concentrations using UV-visible spectroscopy. Figure: SEM images of bamboo hydrochar a) at 500 X magnification and b) at 30 KX magnification and c) Elemental analysis of bamboo hydrochar.
