Occultation observation to probe the turbulence scale size in the plasma tail of comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3-B [PDF]
2007, ApJ, 668, L67, 2007 We present the occultation observation of compact radio source B0019-000 through the plasma tail of comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3-B. The observation was made with the Ooty Radio Telescope at 326.5 MHz on 2006 May 26, when the plasma tail of the comet was in front of this source.

A model actin comet tail disassembling by severing [PDF]
Physical Biology, 2011 We use a numerical simulation to model an actin comet tail as it grows from the surface of a small object (a bead) and disassembles by severing. We explore the dependence of macroscopic properties such as the local tail radius and tail length on several ...

Search for a circum-planetary material and orbital period variations of short-period Kepler exoplanet candidates [PDF]
, 2014 A unique short-period Mercury-size Kepler exoplanet candidate KIC012557548b has been discovered recently by Rappaport et al. (2012). This object is a transiting disintegrating exoplanet with a circum-planetary material - comet-like tail. Close-in exoplanets, like KIC012557548b, are subjected to the greatest planet-star interactions.

Three Dimensional MHD Simulationof Comet Hale-Bopp Tail [PDF]
, 2008 The interaction between comet Hale-Bopp tail with the solar wind is investigated in the present paper using magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) numerical simulation, which accounts for the presence of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF).

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 1982 A description and explanation of an unexpected echographic appearance in a patient who had sustained an abdominal shotgun wound is presented. In the B‐scans, a trail of dense continuous echoes, simulating a comet tail, is seen distal to each lead pellet.

The Isolated Comet Tail Pseudopodium of Listeria monocytogenes: A Tail of Two Actin Filament Populations, Long and Axial and Short and Random [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1997 Listeria monocytogenes is driven through infected host cytoplasm by a comet tail of actin filaments that serves to project the bacterium out of the cell surface, in pseudopodia, to invade neighboring cells.

Abl Kinases Regulate Actin Comet Tail Elongation via an N-WASP-Dependent Pathway [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2005 Microbial pathogens have evolved diverse strategies to modulate the host cell cytoskeleton to achieve a productive infection and have proven instrumental for unraveling the molecular machinery that regulates actin polymerization.

Observations of a Comet Tail Disruption Induced by the Passage of a CME [PDF]
, 2008 [1] The Solar Mass Ejection Imager observed an extremely faint interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) as it passed Comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) on 5 May 2004, apparently causing a disruption of its plasma tail. This is the first time that an ICME has been
