A homogeneous view of asymptotic giant branch carbon stars as seen by Gaia

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Carbon stars on the asymptotic giant branch are major contributors to the dust enrichment of galaxies, with gas mass-loss rate values up to Ṁ ≈ 10−4 M⊙ yr−1. They represent the final evolutionary stage of low- and intermediate-mass stars, during

Abundances in J-Type Carbon Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1988
It has been found by Utsumi(1985a,b) that in J-type carbon stars of C4-5 and WZ Cas(C9,2J Li), abundances of s-process elements with respect to Fe are nearly normal, while in normal carbon stars of C5-8, heavy metals are overabundant by factors of 10-100, and rare-earth elements are overabundant by a factor of about 10.In the MK system, most J-type ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

When is a prediction anthropic? Fred Hoyle and the 7.65 MeV carbon resonance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The case of Fred Hoyle’s prediction of a resonance state in carbon-12, unknown in 1953 when it was predicted, is often mentioned as an example of anthropic prediction.

A study of U Aquarii and the nucleosynthesis of neutrons and S-process elements in evolved stars of low mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The origin of the extreme hydrogen deficiency observed in the R Coronae Borealis (RCrB) stars remains poorly understood. A likely mechanism for producing this deficiency is one whereby the original hydrogen envelope of the star is engulfed and ...

Tracing Early Enrichment Pathways: Chemical and Chemodynamical Analysis of Two CEMP-no Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a detailed high-resolution spectroscopic and chemodynamic analysis of two carbon stars, HE 1148−0037 and HE 1246−1344, using SUBARU High Dispersion Spectrograph spectra ( R ∼ 50,000).

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Selecting a Photometric System for Gaia: C, N, O and Alpha-Process Elements

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2003
The sensitivity of stellar spectra to C, N, O and α-process element abundances is discussed with the aim of taking this effect into account when selecting a photometric system for the Gaia orbiting observatory.
