DO GENETICALLY RELATED COMET PAIRS AND GROUPS EXIST?

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
In connection with the discoveries of the new comets 1982b and 1982c, 1988e and 1988g, the orbits of which have the essentially similar elements, the problem of existence of the cometary groups with the similar orbits and their genetical relationship are

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Classification of Subgroups of Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) Sungrazing Kreutz Comet Group by the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) Clustering Algorithm

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences
Sungrazing comets, known for their proximity to the Sun, are traditionally classified into broad groups like Kreutz, Marsden, Kracht, Meyer, and non-group comets.

SMAD4 Palmitoylation Drives a Metabolic‐Transcriptional Circuit to Promote Tumorigenesis and Confers Radiosensitivity in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies palmitoylation as a novel regulatory modification of SMAD4, mediated by ZDHHC22/APT2. It activates fatty acid synthesis, creating a self‐reinforcing SMAD4–FASN–palmitate feedback loop that drives pancreatic cancer growth and enhances radiotherapy sensitivity.

Organic Molecules in the Icy Bodies of Planetary Systems – Accepted Notions and New Ideas

Open Astronomy, 2018
Cometary bodies are acknowledged to contain some of the most pristine matter in the Solar System, including ices and minerals. Certain number of previously unidentified spectral emission features detected in comets can be explained as emission by ...

Inhibition of SIRT7 Overcomes Radioresistance in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors by Reactivating MEN1 Expression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors frequently silence MEN1 through epigenetic mechanisms. Here, SIRT7 recruits DNMT1 to the MEN1 promoter, drives hypermethylation, and enhances DNA repair. Inhibiting SIRT7 restores MEN1, reduces MRN complex abundance, impairs double‐strand break repair, and sensitizes PanNET models to radiation, supporting SIRT7 as a ...

Digital Archive of the Astrograph Plates Stored at the Inasan Zvenigorod Observatory

Open Astronomy, 2012
The plate collection of the Zvenigorod 40-cm Carl Zeiss astrograph, obtained in 1972-2003, contains direct photographs of star fields, comets, asteroids, Pluto, and Mars. The electronic library of images from photographic plates was created from scanning

Photometry technique to map elements’ distribution on comets’ nuclei surfaces by using the new method.

Iraqi Journal of Physics, 2023
This study is unique in this field. It represents a mix of three branches of technology: photometry, spectroscopy, and image processing. The work treats the image by treating each pixel in the image based on its color, where the color means a specific ...

ON THE ORIGIN OF COMETS

Chinese Journal of Space Science, 1982
Abstract The fact that comets are rich in volatile material shows that they were formed and kept for a long time in the outer, low-temperature regions of the solar system. In this paper we analyse the structure in the outer edge of the solar nebula and show that no formation zone of comets can exist there. Our view is that the comets evolved from the
