Inner Size of a Dust Torus in the Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4151
The most intense monitoring observations yet made were carried out on the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 in the optical and near-infrared wave-bands. A lag from the optical light curve to the near-infrared light curve was measured.

Dust in active nuclei. II. Powder or gravel? [PDF]
In a companion paper, Maiolino et al. (2000) presented various observational evidences for "anomalous" dust properties in the circumnuclear region of AGNs and, in particular, the reduced E(B-V)/N_H and Av/N_H ratios, the absence of the silicate ...

Line width distributions as evidence for axisymmetry in the broad line regions of active galaxies [PDF]
The nuclei of a wide class of active galaxies emit broad emission lines with widths at half maximum (FWHM) in the range $10^{3}-10^{4}$ km s$^{-1}$. This spread of widths is not solely a consequence of the range of the luminosities of these sources since

Climate change, through rising temperatures, greater variability, and more frequent extremes, is reshaping insect phenology and thermal niches, with profound effects for pest outbreaks. Predicting these impacts requires a clear understanding of species and communities' responses across geographic gradients.

Multimodal Imaging Investigation of the Dentato‐Thalamo‐Cortical Pathway in Friedreich's Ataxia
Abstract Background Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a spinocerebellar neurodegenerative disorder. The dentato‐thalamo‐cortical (DTC) pathway, an important cerebellar output involved in motor control, plays a crucial role in the neural mechanisms underlying ataxia symptoms in FRDA.

Power density spectrum of NGC 5548 and the nature of its variability [PDF]
We derive power density spectra in the optical and X-ray band in the timescale range from several years down to $\sim $ a day. We suggest that the optical power density spectrum consists of two separate components: long timescale variations and short ...

The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...

Extragalactic Results from the Infrared Space Observatory
More than a decade ago the IRAS satellite opened the realm of external galaxies for studies in the 10 to 100 micron band and discovered emission from tens of thousands of normal and active galaxies.

Larval diet breadth and wingspan mediate landscape–richness relationship in butterfly communities
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Landscape structure and species traits both shape butterfly assemblages, but their joint effects, and how landscapes restructure trait space independently of richness, remain less understood.

Reverberation Measurements of the Inner Radius of the Dust Torus in Nearby Seyfert 1 Galaxies
The most intense monitoring observations yet made in the optical (UBV) and near-infrared (JHK) wave bands were carried out for nearby Seyfert1 galaxies of NGC 5548, NGC 4051, NGC 3227, and NGC 7469.
