On the Theory of Comet Tails

open access: yesTellus A: Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 1957
According to Biermann’s theory the repulsive force in comet tails is due to a corpuscular radiation from the sun. It is shown that some of the difficulties of this theory can be overcome if the assumed radiation consists of beams with a frozen-in magnetic field of the same type as required in the electric field theory of magnetic storms and aurorae ...

Dendritic organization of actin comet tails [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2001
Polymerization of actin filaments is necessary for both protrusion of the leading edge of crawling cells and propulsion of certain intracellular pathogens, and it is sufficient for generating force for bacterial motility in vitro. Motile intracellular pathogens are associated with actin-rich comet tails containing many of the same molecular components ...

Probing the Solar Wind Acceleration Region with the Sun--Grazing Comet C/2002 S2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Comet C/2002 S2, a member of the Kreutz family of Sungrazing comets, was discovered in white light images of the SOHO/LASCO coronagraph on 2002 September 18 and observed in \hi\, \lya\, emission by the SOHO/UVCS instrument at four different heights as it approached the Sun.

Tycho Brahe, Abu Mashar, and the comet beyond Venus (ninth century A.D.) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal for the History of Astronomy 47, 136, 2016, 2016
From his observations of the A.D. 1572 super-nova and the A.D. 1577 comet, Tycho Brahe concluded that such transient celestial objects are outside the Earth's atmosphere, and he quoted the 9th century A.D. Persian astrologer and astronomer Abu Mashar: Dixit Albumasar, Cometa supra Venerem visus fuit, i.e.

Overexpressed Palladin Rescues Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) Pedestal Lengths in ArpC2 Depleted Cells

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) causes diarrheal disease. Once ingested, these extracellular pathogens attach to the intestinal epithelial cells of their host, collapse the localized microvilli, and generate actin‐rich structures within the host cells that are located beneath the attached bacteria, called “pedestals.” Palladin is an ...

Comparison Between Different DNA and Conventional

open access: yesمجله كليه طب الكندي, 2012
Background: The discriminative power of the classical WHO parameters in relation to male fertility is quite low, because they only address few aspects of sperm quality and function.

Solar Wind Interactions with Comet C/2021 A1 Using STEREO HI and a Data-assimilative Solar Wind Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Cometary tails display dynamic behavior attributed to interactions with solar wind structures. Consequently, comet-tail observations can serve as in situ solar wind monitors.
