Dual-disk galaxies and thermal states of circumgalactic medium

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
Disk galaxies often have dual-disk structures composed of thin disks and thick disks. Recent observations reveal that such duality is ubiquitous across broad galaxy mass and cosmic time.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Low luminosity elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Long-slit spectra for the photometric axes of a sample of 14 elliptical galaxies, predominantly low-luminosity ellipticals, in the Virgo cluster and in nearby groups, are studied to investigate the galaxy kinematical structure and stellar evolutionary ...

On the Stellar Disk Vertical Scale Height of Edge-on Galaxies from S4G

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Disk galaxies viewed as thin planar structures resulting from the conservation of angular momentum of an initially rotating pregalactic cloud allow merely a first-order model of galaxy formation, but the presence of vertically extended structures has ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

End‐to‐End Sensing Systems for Breast Cancer: From Wearables for Early Detection to Lab‐Based Diagnosis Chips

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 13, 8 July 2026.
This review explores advances in wearable and lab‐on‐chip technologies for breast cancer detection. Covering tactile, thermal, ultrasound, microwave, electrical impedance tomography, electrochemical, microelectromechanical, and optical systems, it highlights innovations in flexible electronics, nanomaterials, and machine learning.

A search for the most massive galaxies: double trouble? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We describe the results of a search for galaxies with large ({approx}> 350 kms{sup -1}) velocity dispersions. The largest systems we have found appear to be the extremes of the early-type galaxy population: compared to other galaxies with similar ...

A Universal Dance of Galactic Disks: Ubiquitous Precession and Its Implications

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Precession is a very common phenomenon for small-scale astronomical objects. However, the precession of galactic disks, occurring on scales of kiloparsecs or more, has been insufficiently studied in past works. Quantifying this precession observationally

JWST Insight into a Lensed HST-dark Galaxy and Its Quiescent Companion at z = 2.58

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Using the novel James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/NIRCam observations in the A2744 field, we present a first spatially resolved overview of a Hubble Space Telescope (HST)-dark galaxy, spectroscopically confirmed at z = 2.58 with magnification μ ≈ 1.9 ...
