CHEMICAL ABUNDANCES IN BINARIES WITH TWIN COMPONENTS
Procedure and some preliminary results of abundances determination in binaries with twin components from solar neighborhood are discussed. Numerical analysis were carried out by fits of synthetical spectra and COG to high resolution (R=50000) observed ...

Screening Earth Analog Exoplanets on the Basis of a Predicted Nitrogen over Phosphorus Ratio
Since the first discovery in 1995, data for over 5300 exoplanets have been documented in the NASA archive, revealing a vast diversity. Identifying life-enabling analogs of the Earth among this rapidly expanding catalog is of major interest. The stability

Planetary nebulae in the inner Milky Way: new abundances [PDF]
The study of planetary nebulae in the inner-disk and bulge gives important information on the chemical abundances of elements such as He, N, O, Ar, Ne, and on the evolution of these abundances, which is associated with the evolution of intermediate-mass ...

Non-LTE abundances of Mg and K in extremely metal-poor stars and the evolution of [O/Mg], [Na/Mg], [Al/Mg] and [K/Mg] in the Milky Way [PDF]
LTE abundances of light elements in extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars have been previously derived from high quality spectra. New derivations, free from the NLTE effects, will better constrain the models of the Galactic chemical evolution and the yields ...

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

The physics of recombination lines in the He i singlet system is expected to be relatively simple, supported by accurate atomic models. We examine the intensities of He i singlets λ 3614, λ 3965, λ 5016, λ 6678, and λ 7281 and the triplet He i λ 5876

The connection between the Galactic halo and ancient Dwarf Satellites
We explore the hypothesis that the classical and ultra-faint dwarf spheroidal satellites of the Milky Way have been the building blocks of the Galactic halo by comparing their [O/Fe] and [Ba/Fe] versus [Fe/H] patterns with the ones observed in Galactic ...

Chemical Abundances of M-Dwarfs from the Apogee Survey. I. The Exoplanet Hosting Stars Kepler-138 and Kepler-186 [PDF]
We report the first detailed chemical abundance analysis of the exoplanet-hosting M-dwarf stars Kepler-138 and Kepler-186 from the analysis of high-resolution (R ∼ 22,500) H-band spectra from the SDSS-IV–APOGEE survey.
