Abstract The female inflorescence of hops is traditionally used in the brewing industry to impart bitterness, aroma, flavour and longer shelf life to beer, where the bittering acids are the main compounds that enhance the quality of the beer. In recent years, a wide variety of bioactive compounds have been reported to be present in female flowers.

There have been relatively few published long-duration, uninterrupted light curves of magnetic cataclysmic variable stars in which the accreting white dwarf’s rotational frequency is slightly desynchronized from the binary orbital frequency.

When the accreting white dwarf in a magnetic cataclysmic variable star (mCV) has a field strength in excess of 10 MG, it is expected to synchronize its rotational frequency to the binary orbit frequency, particularly at small binary separations, due to ...

Identification of 1RXS J165424.6-433758 as a Polar Cataclysmic Variable
We present the results of our X-ray, ultraviolet, and optical follow-up campaigns of 1RXS J165424.6-433758, an X-ray source detected with the Swift Deep Galactic Plane Survey.

PTF1J2224+17: A short‐period, high‐field polar
Abstract We present time‐resolved photometry of the cataclysmic variable PTF1J2224+17 obtained during four nights in October 2018 and January 2019 from Inastars observatory. The object is variable on a period of 103.82 min. Archival Catalina Real‐Time Transient Survey (CRTS), Palomar Transient Factory, and Zwicky Transient Facility‐data show frequent ...

EUVE J0425.6−5714: A Newly Discovered AM Herculis Star [PDF]
We detected a new AM Her star serendipitously in a 25 day observation with the EUVE satellite. A coherent period of 85.82 min is present in the EUVE Deep Survey imager light curve of this source. A spectroscopic identification is made with a 19th magnitude blue star that has H and He emission lines, and broad cyclotron humps typical of a magnetic ...

High and low states of the system AM Herculis [PDF]
Context: We investigate the distribution of optically high and low states of the system AM Herculis (AM Her). Aims: We determine the state duty cycles, and their relationships with the mass transfer process and binary orbital evolution of the system.

UBVRI-polarimetry of the AM Herculis star RX J0203.8+2959 [PDF]
We present results of the rst simultaneous UBVRI-photopolarimetric observations of the long period (4.6 hrs) AM Herculis system RX J0203.8+2959. The observed circular polarization shows both negative and positive polarization, from +7% to 5% in the B-band.

ORFEUS II Far-UV Spectroscopy of AM Herculis [PDF]
Six high-resolution (\lambda/\Delta\lambda ~ 3000) far-UV (\lambda\lambda = 910-1210 \AA) spectra of the magnetic cataclysmic variable AM Herculis were acquired in 1996 November during the flight of the ORFEUS-SPAS II mission.

Restoration of Florida scrub vegetation in an old field through 23 years after planting
Florida scrub, a fire‐maintained, xeromorphic shrubland, hosts many rare and declining species, but most scrub habitat has been lost to development and agriculture. Formerly cultivated sites offer an opportunity to restore Florida scrub. In this 23‐year study, we test whether scrub species could be restored to an old field and whether scrub vegetation ...
