Megamasers in Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]
Extragalactic masers were discovered more than 20 years ago (Whiteoak & Gardner 1973). It soon became apparent that those extragalactic masers we can detect are intrinsically very powerful and are located in galactic nuclei. The term Megamaser was coined to describe the most luminous OH masers, which are a million times more powerful than any OH ...

VIS‐to‐MIR reflectance and Raman spectroscopy of the CM2 NWA 12184 carbonaceous chondrite
Abstract The spectral analysis of CM meteorites can help to constrain the mineralogical composition of their parent body, the C‐type asteroids. The CM2 NWA 12184 was spectrally examined employing seven complementary techniques at different spatial resolutions, including VIS‐to‐MIR reflectance and Raman spectroscopy.

The high-energy-peaked BL Lacertae objects (HBLs) are the main targets of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) for investigating the mechanisms of radiation and particle acceleration in jets. In this Letter, we report the first IXPE observations

Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small, non‐coding RNAs that play a crucial role in gene regulation, making them potential biomarkers for various diseases. In the field of veterinary medicine, there is a growing interest in exploring the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of miRNAs in kidney diseases affecting dogs and cats.

Reverberation mapping of active galactic nuclei
AbstractEcho mapping makes use of the intrinsic variaibility of the continuum source in active galactic nuclei to map out the distribution and kinematics of line‐emitting gas from its light travel time‐delayed response to continuum changes. Echo mapping experiments have yielded sizes for the broad line‐emitting region in about three dozen AGNs.

A Long-term Study of Mrk 50: Appearance and Disappearance of Soft Excess
We present an extensive temporal and spectral study of the Seyfert 1 AGN Mrk 50 using 15 yr (2007–2022) of multiwavelength observations from XMM-Newton, Swift, and NuSTAR for the first time.

On the Extended Soft X-Ray and Fe Kα Emission in NGC 1068
The soft X-ray excess and Fe K α emission lines are widely observed in Seyfert galaxies, with their origin still in debate. We present a detailed spatially resolved image and spectral analysis of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 using high-resolution ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

On the Extremely X-Ray Variable Active Galactic Nuclei in the XMM-LSS Field
We present a systematic investigation of extremely X-ray variable active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the ≈5.3 deg ^2 XMM-SERVS XMM-LSS region. Eight variable AGNs are identified with rest-frame 2 keV flux density variability amplitudes around 6–12.
