The Chromospheres of Carbon Stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 2000
Most oxygen-rich late-type giant stars show evidence for chromospheres in their visual spectra (e.g. Ca ii H & K emission features). Cool (i.e. N-type) non-Mira carbon stars, however, have never been observed to have chromospheric emission in their Ca ii H & K lines.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

PHYSICAL PARAMETERS OF HII/PDR COMPLEX IN ORION BAR ESTIMATED BY OBSERVATIONS OF 8 MM RECOMBINATION LINES. EFFECTIVE TEMPERATURE OF 1 С Ori STAR

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
Physical parameters of HII/PDR complex in Ori Bar were estimated using observations of recombination radio lines (RRL) of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and helium (He) with RT-22 radio telescope in Pushchino.

FORCASTing the Spectroscopic Dust Properties of the WC+O Binary WR 137 with SOFIA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
WR 137 (HD 192641) is a binary system consisting of a carbon-rich Wolf–Rayet (W-R) star and an Oe companion star in a 13 yr orbit. Near periastron, the winds of the two stars collide and form carbonaceous dust.

SDSS J142625.71+575218.3: the First Pulsating White Dwarf With A Large Detectable Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report the discovery of a strong magnetic field in the unique pulsating carbon- atmosphere white dwarf SDSS J142625.71 + 575218.3. From spectra gathered at the MMT and Keck telescopes, we infer a surface field of B(s) similar or equal to 1.2 MG, based

White dwarf stars with carbon atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2007
White dwarfs represent the endpoint of stellar evolution for stars with initial masses between approximately 0.07 and 8-10, where is the mass of the Sun (more massive stars end their life as either black holes or neutron stars). The theory of stellar evolution predicts that the majority of white dwarfs have a core made of carbon and oxygen, which ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

On the Spectrum of Extremely Metal-Poor Star HD 52961

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2013
High resolution spectra of the extremely metal-poor star HD 52961 are investigated. The atmospheric parameters found are: Teff = 6000 ± 100 K, log g = 0.5±0.5, ξt = 6.8 km s−1, [Fe/H] = −4.50±0.20. The carbon abundance is close to the solar one, [C/H] = −
