VLBI Observations of NGC6240: resolving the double nuclei and radio supernovae

, 2011
The European VLBI Network (EVN) has been used at two epochs in 2003 and 2009 to obtain multi-frequency high-resolution images of the merger galaxy NGC6240 in order to study the radio properties of all compact high-brightness components in the galaxy. Our

Controlling 3D Contractility via Engineered Fibrous Hydrogel Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tunable composite contractile assembly (CCA) is developed that can permit or resist contraction without changing cell‐adhesion and density, unlike collagen whose inherent coupling of these ECM cues limits its use as a platform in contractility studies.

NGC 4151 - A unified active galactic nucleus

, 1996
We present a unified picture of active galactic nuclei which we construct from a detailed model of line emission in the active source in NGC 4151. In this scheme NGC 4151 can be regarded as a typical active nucleus, special only in its orientation. This alleviates a number of problems with a unified picture based on a dusty molecular torus with a fixed

Midbrain PAG Astrocytes Modulate Mouse Defensive and Panic‐Like Behaviors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Astrocytes in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) dynamically encode threat intensity and shape defensive action selection in mice. Real‐time Ca2+ imaging reveals robust astrocytic activation during predator odor and CO2 exposure. Aberrant astrocytic Ca2+ overactivation disrupts goal‐directed escape, biases behavior toward freezing, and induces ...

Substituent‐Based Modulation of Self‐Assembly and Immunogenicity of Amphipathic Peptides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study systematically investigates how positional and subtle changes, such as substituents on the phenyl ring attached to short amphipathic peptides, influence their self‐assembly, fibril morphology, and immunogenic responses. ABSTRACT Self‐assembled peptide‐based biomaterials provide versatile platforms for biomedical uses, featuring customizable ...

Prior-informed Active Galactic Nucleus Host Spectral Decomposition Using PyQSOFit

The Astrophysical Journal
We introduce an improved method for decomposing the emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies using templates from principal component analysis (PCA).

Quantitative Stain Mapping in X‐Ray Virtual Histology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Virtual histology promises 3D tissue examination without physical sectioning, yet has lacked the tissue‐specificity of conventional pathology. This work demonstrates the first quantitative three‐dimensional stain mapping at histologically relevant resolution, separating contrast agent from tissue to reveal cellular features such as nuclei. The approach

Galactic bars and active galactic nucleus fuelling in the second half of cosmic history

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We investigate the role of galactic bars in fuelling and triggering active galactic nuclei (AGN) in disc galaxies up to z ∼ 0.8. We utilised a deep learning model, fine-tuned on Galaxy Zoo volunteer classifications, to identify (strongly and weakly ...

Enhanced Black Hole Mergers in Active Galactic Nucleus Disks due to Precession-induced Resonances

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Recent studies have shown that active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks can host sources of gravitational waves. Compact binaries can form and merge in AGN disks through their interactions with the gas and other compact objects in the disk.

Revealing the active galactic nucleus in the superantennae through L-band spectroscopy

, 2003
We present an L-band spectrum of the Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxy IRAS 19254-7245 (the Superantennae), obtained with VLT-ISAAC. The high signal to noise ratio allows a study of the main spectral features with unprecedented detail for an extragalactic ...
