Surfing the T Wave: A Primer on ECG T Wave Morphologies Encountered in Clinical Trials and Impact on the QT Interval and Patient Safety. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation and measurement is an essential aspect of patient safety and pharmacovigilance in clinical trials. Changes in the T wave segment of an ECG can provide both diagnostic and prognostic information and may be affected by a variety of intrinsic and extrinsic factors related to drug administration.

Rubidium-Rich Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
A long-debated issue concerning the nucleosynthesis of neutron-rich elements in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars is the identification of the neutron source. We report intermediate-mass (4 to 8 solar masses) AGB stars in our Galaxy that are rubidium-rich as a result of overproduction of the long-lived radioactive isotope 87

Lead (Pb) is predicted to have large over-abundances with respect to other s-process elements in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars, especially of low metallicities.

Luminosity Functions for Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
To understand the evolution of carbon and oxygen rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars it is important to observationally establish the relations between parameters such as luminosity, age, and metallicity. The existence of luminous (brighter than the top of the first giant branch) AGB stars in clusters in the Magellanic Clouds (Mould and Aaronson ...

Magnetic and non-magnetic AGB mixing for s-processing [PDF]
I outline a few features of recent models for the formation of the neutron source 13C(α,n)16O in low mass stars (1 ≲ M/M⊙ ≲ 3, LMS ) ascendingfor the second time the Red Giant Branch, generally called Asymptotic Giant Branch, or AGB stars. I also briefly

Studying Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in the JWST Era
We explore the potential offered by the incoming launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, to study the stars evolving through the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase. To this aim we compare data of AGB stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, taken with the

The Search for Binaries in Post-Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Do Binary Companions Shape the Nebulae? [PDF]
Binary companions are often invoked to explain the axial and point symmetry seen in the majority of planetary nebulae and proto-planetary nebulae (PPNs).

Properties of the Variation of the Infrared Emission of OH/IR Stars III. The M Band Light Curves [PDF]
To study properties of the pulsation in the infrared emission for long period variables, we have collected and analyzed the infrared observational data at M band for 12 OH/IR stars.

Trojan Horse Investigation for AGB Stellar Nucleosynthesis
Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars are among the most important astrophysical sites influencing the nucleosynthesis and the chemical abundances in the Universe. From a pure nuclear point of view, several processes take part during this peculiar stage of

Blue Stragglers After the Main Sequence [PDF]
We study the post-main sequence evolution of products of collisions between main sequence stars (blue stragglers), with particular interest paid to the horizontal branch and asymptotic giant branch phases.
