Five New Sirius-like White Dwarf–Main-sequence Star Systems with MagAO-X
Most known white dwarfs in multiple systems with main-sequence stars have been discovered with M-type companions, because the white dwarf causes detectable UV excess and bluer colors than expected from a single M star.

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Astrophysical Properties of the Sirius Binary System Modeled with MESA
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky and, despite its proximity, this binary system still imposes intriguing questions about its current characteristics and past evolution. H. E. Bond et al. published decades of astronometric measurements of the

Zeros dos Polinômios Característicos dos Métodos BDF
O estudo da estabilidade de métodos numéricos possui um grande potencial em pesquisa. Como a análise da estabilidade está relacionada aos zeros do polinômio característico do método, é importante determinar o comportamento de tais zeros.

ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Searching for Ultra-light Dark Matter in Spatial Correlations of White Dwarf Structure
If dark matter is ultra-light and has certain Standard Model interactions, it can change the mass–radius relation of white dwarf (WD) stars. The coherence length of ultra-light dark matter (ULDM) imparts spatial correlations in deviations from the ...

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

A Highly Magnetic Ultramassive White Dwarf with a 23 minute Rotation Period
We present a physical characterization of Tsinghua University-Ma Huateng Telescope for Survey (TMTS) J00063798+3104160 (J0006), a rapidly rotating, ultramassive white dwarf (WD) identified in high-cadence light curves from the TMTS.

ABSTRACT Background Pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors may experience psychosocial challenges related to childhood cancer after their intensive, body‐altering treatment. This cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate generic and survivor‐specific psychosocial outcomes in a national cohort of pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors, and ...

3D Simulations Demonstrate Propagating Thermohaline Convection for Polluted White Dwarfs
Polluted white dwarfs (WDs) with small surface convection zones deposit significant concentrations of heavy elements to the underlying radiative interior, presumably driving thermohaline convection.
