Short-term dynamical evolution of grand-design spirals in barred galaxies

, 2015
We investigate the short-term dynamical evolution of stellar grand-design spiral arms in barred spiral galaxies using a three-dimensional (3D) $N$-body/hydrodynamic simulation.

Somato‐Cognitive Action Network in Focal Dystonia

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The central pathology causing idiopathic focal dystonia remains unclear. The recently identified somato‐cognitive action network (SCAN) has been implicated. Objective We tested whether the effector‐agnostic SCAN may constitute a central pathology shared across dystonia subtypes, whereas the effector‐specific regions in the primary ...

The Illustris Simulation: Supermassive Black Hole - Galaxy Connection Beyond the Bulge

, 2017
We study the spiral arm morphology of a sample of the local spiral galaxies in the Illustris simulation and explore the supermassive black hole - galaxy connection beyond the bulge (e.g., spiral arm pitch angle, total stellar mass, dark matter mass, and ...

Betaine‐Conjugated ß‐Peptide Foldamers: Influence of Quaternary Charge on Self‐Organization and MorphologyFormation

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
N‐terminal betaine conjugation modifies β‐peptide helices, influencing folding and self‐organization. For [1S, 2S]‐ACPC, folding to an H12 helix was unaffected, while [1R, 2R]‐ACHC formed an H14 helix instead of H10. Alternating heterochiral oligomers made of enantiomeric pairs of trans‐ACPC showed enhanced solubility and E‐strand formation.

Comparison of Bar Formation Mechanisms. II. Does a Tidally Induced Bar Grow Faster than an Internally Developed Bar?

The Astrophysical Journal
Bar structures can form internally due to the instability of their host galaxies or externally due to perturbations from other galaxies. We systematically quantify the growth timescales ( τ _bar ) of bars formed through these two mechanisms with a series

Diverse Molecular Structures across the Whole Star-forming Disk of M83: High-fidelity Imaging at 40 pc Resolution

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) imaging of molecular gas across the full star-forming disk of the barred spiral galaxy M83 in CO( J = 1–0).

Bar Diagnostics in Edge-On Spiral Galaxies. I. The Periodic Orbits Approach

, 1999
We develop diagnostics to detect the presence and orientation of a bar in an edge-on disk, using its kinematical signature in the position-velocity diagram (PVD) of a spiral galaxy observed edge-on.

In silico, in vitro and ex vivo characterization of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator pathogenic variants localized in the fourth intracellular loop and their rescue by modulators

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cystic fibrosis (CF) is due to loss‐of‐function variants of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel. The most effective treatment for people with CF carrying the F508del mutation is the triple combination of elexacaftor–tezacaftor–ivacaftor (ETI).

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Spiral Structure and Galaxy Environment

, 2002
Among 330 normal spirals of types Sa-Sc the fraction of objects exhibiting ``ring'', ``intermediate'' and ``spiral'' arm varieties does not correlated with environment.
