Magnetic activity, differential rotation and dynamo action in the pulsating F9IV star KIC 5955122 [PDF]
We present photometric spot modeling of the nearly four-year long light-curve of the Kepler target KIC 5955122 in terms of persisting dark circular surface features.

Synaptic Vesicle Proteins and Active Zone Plasticity [PDF]
Neurotransmitter is released from synaptic vesicles at the highly specialized presynaptic active zone (AZ). The complex molecular architecture of AZs mediates the speed, precision and plasticity of synaptic transmission. Importantly, structural and functional properties of AZs vary significantly, even for a given connection.

We still face fundamental gaps in understanding how molecular plastic changes of synapses intersect with circuit operation to define behavioral states. Here, we show that an antagonism between two conserved regulatory proteins, Spinophilin (Spn) and Syd ...

Assembling the presynaptic active zone
Rapid neurotransmission depends on the structural and functional integrity of synaptic connections. How synapses assemble is currently being intensely investigated to help our understanding of neuronal development and synaptic plasticity. Here we focus on the assembly of the presynaptic active zone, which regulates the synaptic vesicle exo/endo-cycle ...

Two forms of asynchronous release with distinctive spatiotemporal dynamics in central synapses
Asynchronous release is a ubiquitous form of neurotransmitter release that persists for tens to hundreds of milliseconds after an action potential. How asynchronous release is organized and regulated at the synaptic active zone (AZ) remains debatable ...

Ionization structure of hot components in symbiotic binaries during active phases
During active phases of symbiotic binaries, an optically thick medium in the form of a flared disk develops around their hot stars. During quiescent phases, this structure is not evident.

A Theory on the Convective Origins of Active Longitudes on Solar-like Stars [PDF]
Using a thin flux tube model in a rotating spherical shell of turbulent, solar-like convective flows, we find that the distribution of emerging flux tubes in our simulation is inhomogeneous in longitude, with properties similar to those of active ...

Protein composition of axonal dopamine release sites in the striatum
Dopamine is an important modulator of cognition and movement. We recently found that evoked dopamine secretion is fast and relies on active zone-like release sites.

The processes of creating an electromagnetic force acting on the molten metal in the active zone of a magnetodynamic pump are studied depending on the spectral composition of the higher harmonic components of the current in the channel and the induction ...

A Comet Active Beyond the Crystallization Zone
We present observations showing in-bound long-period comet C/2017 K2 (PANSTARRS) to be active at record heliocentric distance. Nucleus temperatures are too low (60 K to 70 K) either for water ice to sublimate or for amorphous ice to crystallize ...
