Role of the ubiquitin-selective CDC-48/UFD-1/NPL-4 chaperone in DNA replication [PDF]
Faithful transmission of genomic information requires tight spatiotemporal regulation of DNA replication factors. Posttranslational modifications, such as ubiquitylation, constitute a fast and effective mechanism to control such complex protein function.

Ly alpha escape during cosmological hydrogen recombination: the 3d-1s and 3s-1s two-photon processes
We give a formulation of the radiative transfer equation for Lyman alpha photons which allows us to include the two-photon corrections for the 3s-1s and 3d-1s decay channels during cosmological hydrogen recombination.

Confinement and diffusion time-scales of CR hadrons in AGN-inflated bubbles [PDF]
While rich clusters are powerful sources of X-rays, gamma-ray emission from these large cosmic structures has not been detected yet. X-ray radiative energy losses in the central regions of relaxed galaxy clusters are so strong that one needs to consider ...
