Voyager 1 (V1) spacecraft was launched in 1977, and after 35 year voyage in the heliosphere, V1 first crossed the heliopause, the outer boundary of the heliosphere, and entered the interstellar space in July-August, 2012. This was really a great event since all previous man-made satellites in the world were localized inside the heliosphere. It is summarized and explained the V1 observed scientific data in this paper.

Recently, spontaneously formed wrinkles on hard coating-capped elastomer surfaces have attracted the attention of both the scientific and applied research communities, because of their simple fabrication process and practical potential in diverse applications as a shape-tunable boundary. The depth and stripe orientation of the wrinkle can be controlled by applying compressive strain. Our group has focused on tuning the structure of wrinkles by exerting additional strain. This is almost impossible for micropatterns fabricated on a hard, e.g., Si wafer; therefore, our technique is based on a soft substrate and the non-linear response of the system to external strain. The dynamic shape-tunability of the micropatterns shows potential for new applications, in which switching states of a system could be induced by a change in the physical boundary conditions, namely, the shape of wrinkles. This article summarizes our recent work on shape-tunability of wrinkles and the application of shape-tunable wrinkles to tunable optical diffusion, liquid manipulation, liquid crystal alignment, and tunable friction. Our research demonstrates that shape-tunable wrinkles provide new physical boundary conditions that can control the states of the bounded material and of phenomena that occurs at/through the interface. We expect that many other systems that interact with the tunable boundary will lead to the discovery of new phenomena and technologies.

Although Planck's law of blackbody radiation well describes spectral profiles of thermal radiation from macroscopic objects, it is not applicable to particles of size comparable to optical wavelengths. We experimentally demonstrate that thermal radiation from a micron-sized dielectric particle depends sensitively on its size and shape through the cavity quantum-electrodynamic effect. Our flow-assisted optical trapping levitates a single molten droplet of dielectric materials such as Al_2O_3 and TiO_2 to enable its emission spectroscopy. As the particle becomes smaller, a blackbody-like spectrum turns into a spectrum dominated by multiple peaks resonant with whispering gallery modes of the microsphere, showing that the spontaneous emission rate is modified by the discrete mode density.

The ALPS (Algorithms and Libraries for Physics Simulations) project, an international collaboration to develop open-source software for the simulation of strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, is presented. The ALPS provides common libraries and evaluation tools useful for simulations of the quantum lattice models, as well as high-quality application programs based on the state-of-the-art algorithms. The programs enable non-experts to start carrying out numerical simulations by using the standard and important algorithms for quantum lattice models: the exact diagonalization, the classical and quantum Monte Carlo, the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). The ALPS software is available from the ALPS web site at http://alps.comp-phys. org/.
