Experimental Indicators of Accretion Processes in Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yes, 2017
Bright Active Galactic Nuclei are powered by accretion of mass onto the super massive black holes at the centers of the host galaxies. For fainter objects star formation may significantly contribute to the luminosity. We summarize experimental indicators

Akkermansia muciniphila enhances chicken resistance to infectious bronchitis virus by boosting GABA synthesis and suppressing the NF‐κB inflammatory pathway

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) represents a major threat to poultry production, with current control strategies offering limited protection. In this study, we demonstrate gut microbiome is a critical determinant of IBV resistance using fecal microbiota transplantation.

Continuum Reverberation Mapping of 18 Active Galactic Nuclei over 4 Yr

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Continuum reverberation mapping probes the size scale of the optical continuum-emitting region in active galactic nuclei (AGN). The source of this emission has long been thought to originate from the accretion disk, but recent studies suggest the broad ...

Influence of radiotherapy dose rate on gold nanoparticle‐induced radiosensitization from high dose‐rate brachytherapy and external beam therapy

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background Associated normal tissue toxicity from current radiotherapy (RT) treatments limits effective dose escalation in the tumor to achieve nominal treatment results. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) as radiosensitizing agents to locally increase photoelectron production have gained interest as a safe and viable method to improve therapeutic ...

Integrating Satellite‐Based and Participatory Spatial Analyses for Local, Contextualised, and Nuanced Extreme Heat Hotspot Mapping in Overheated Urban Southeast Asia

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S2, Page 1015-1033, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid urbanisation in Southeast Asia intensifies extreme‐heat exposure, especially where high population density, extensive impervious surfaces, and limited green cover coincide. This study combines multi‐decadal satellite‐derived land surface temperature (LST) mapping with spatial regression and community participatory mapping to locate ...

A Systematic Search for Active Galactic Nucleus Flares in ZTF Data Release 23

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are known to exhibit stochastic variability across a wide range of timescales and wavelengths. AGN flares are extreme outbursts that deviate from this typical behavior and may trace a range of energetic physical processes ...

Precursors in tidal disruption events: Repeating, fast, and active galactic nucleus-hosted TDEs

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are rare transients that provide important insights into the physics of galactic nuclei. A recently identified feature in their optical light curves is the presence of early bump-like structures (precursors) that ...

Multispectral Surface Reflectance as an Indicator of Groundwater Depth for Salt Crust Systems: Insights From the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Bonneville Salt Flats (BSF) in northwestern Utah, USA, has experienced changes in area, thickness, and hydrology over the past century. This study investigates the relationship between multispectral Halite Index (HI) values, which are sensitive to halite moisture content, from Landsat and Sentinel‐2 imagery and groundwater depth (GWD ...
