High-resolution optical and infrared spectroscopic observations of Cir X-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present new optical and infrared (IR) observations of Cir X-1 taken near apastron. Both sets of spectra show asymmetric emission lines. Archival optical observations show that an asymmetric Hα emission line has been in evidence for the past 20 years ...

Ultracompact binary stars [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Today, 2006
Double stars with tight, rapid orbits enable astronomers to study issues ranging from binary-star evolution to the internal structure of white dwarfs and neutron stars. In addition, they may emit directly observable gravitational waves.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

The most massive progenitors of neutron stars: CXO J164710.2-455216

open access: yes, 2008
The evolution leading to the formation of a neutron star in the very young Westerlund 1 star cluster is investigated. The turnoff mass has been estimated to be 35 Msun, indicating a cluster age ~ 3-5 Myr.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Real-time detection of gravitational waves from binary neutron stars using artificial neural networks

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
The groundbreaking discoveries of gravitational waves from binary black-hole mergers [1–3] and, most recently, coalescing neutron stars [4] started a new era of Multi-Messenger Astrophysics and revolutionized our understanding of the Cosmos.

Properties of Binary Systems in a One-dimensional Approximation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Evolutionary calculations for stars in close binary systems are in high demand to obtain better constraints on gravitational-wave source progenitors, understand transient events from stellar interactions, and more.

A New Binary Star System of EW Type in Draco: GSC 03905-01870

open access: yes, 2018
Discovery of a new binary star system (GSC 03905-01870 = USNO-B1.0 1431-0327922 = UCAC4 716-059522) in the Draco constellation is presented. It was discovered during a search for previously unreported eclipsing binary stars through the ASAS-SN database ...

Impact flux of asteroids and water transport to the habitable zone in binary star systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
By now, observations of exoplanets have found more than 50 binary star systems hosting 71 planets. We expect these numbers to increase as more than 70% of the main sequence stars in the solar neighborhood are members of binary or multiple systems.

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...
