Ultraviolet spectroscopy, optical spectroscopy, and spectrophotometry have been used to study the excess UV stars PG 0308 + 096 and PG 1026 + 002. Both objects are short-period binary systems, each containing a DA white dwarf star and a dM star. Orbital periods of approximately 0.284 day for PG 0308 + 096, and aproximately 0.597 day for PG 1026, have ...

ABSTRACT Understanding how pancreas size and shape change with normal aging is critical for establishing a baseline to detect deviations in type 2 diabetes and other pancreatic disease. We measure pancreas size and shape using morphological measurements from early development through aging (ages 0–90).

We present Hubble Space Telescope far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of a blue lurker–white dwarf (BL–WD) binary system in the 4 Gyr open cluster M67. We fit the FUV spectrum of the WD, determining it is a C/O WD with a mass of $0.7{2}_{-0.04}^{+0.05}$ M _ ...

Abstract A streamlined characterization framework (WSPLK) is presented for modelling complex reservoir fluids using cubic equations of state. The key methodological contribution is the introduction of a single global parameter ε directly into Pedersen's boiling‐point correlation, restoring pure‐component calibration and eliminating the need for ...

Atomic Diffusion and Pulsation in Post-Common-Envelope Binary Stars
APPROVED I study the evolution of peculiar low-mass, evolved stars. Two groups of interest are the core-helium-burning hot subdwarfs and the shell-hydrogen-burning low-mass pre-white dwarfs. Stars in both groups have had previous interactions with a companion in order to remove most of their outer layers to leave the stars we see today.

Abstract Free‐radical grafting of natural polymers often assumes that initiators only create active sites before monomer addition. We tested this by exposing sodium alginate to potassium persulphate (KPS) under typical grafting conditions without monomer (acrylamide).

A Triple Scenario for the Formation of Wide Black Hole Binaries Such as Gaia BH1
Recently, several noninteracting black hole–stellar binaries have been identified in Gaia data—for example, Gaia BH1, where a Sun-like star is in a moderately eccentric ( e = 0.44) 185 days orbit around a black hole.

Clathrate hydrate crystallization
Abstract Clathrate hydrate crystallization has been an area of interest to chemical engineers from the point of view of crystal structure, thermophysical properties, phase equilibria, kinetics, industrial applications, and environmental (climate change) implications.

Tales of stellar and binary coevolution, told by stellar oscillations
Context. Red giants are increasingly used as stellar population tracers due to their well-understood evolution and the availability of asteroseismic observables. However, stellar binarity can alter observable properties and introduce strong biases. Aims.

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes
Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.
