The Astrodust+PAH Model: A Unified Description of the Extinction, Emission, and Polarization from Dust in the Diffuse Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a new model of interstellar dust in which large grains are a single composite material, “astrodust,” and nanoparticle-sized grains come in distinct varieties including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We argue that a single-composition

Potential distribution around a charged dust grain in an electronegative plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The potential distribution around a charged dust grain in an electronegative plasma is obtained by using the appropriate dielectric susceptibilities for the Boltzmann distributed electrons and negative ions, and for the inertial positive ions that are ...

Analytical study of (3 + 1)-dimensional fractional ultralow-frequency dust acoustic waves in a dual-temperature plasma

open access: yesJournal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control, 2019
Ultralow-frequency dust acoustic waves in plasma are an important branch of study in plasma physics. Due to the important application of dust acoustic waves in the space environment, industrial processing, and the laboratory, they have aroused great ...

Investigation of Dust Grains by Optical Tweezers for Space Applications

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Cosmic dust plays a dominant role in the universe, especially in the formation of stars and planetary systems. Furthermore, the surface of cosmic dust grains is the benchwork where molecular hydrogen and simple organic compounds are formed. We manipulate

Updating the Electrostatic Model for Dust Impact Detection with Antenna Instruments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Antenna instruments deployed in space are known to be sensitive to dust impacts, and the detected signals can be used to characterize the dust populations within the solar system.

A review of nanoparticle decharging in atmospheric pressure plasma afterglows

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Plasma afterglows interacting with dust grains present a dynamic environment in which negatively charged dust grains leaving the plasma bulk experience an environment with plasma conditions transient in space and time.

MARK4 enhances stress granule formation under oxidative stress and increases tau accumulation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
MARK4 (red dots) localizes to stress granules (orange dots) and promotes their formation under oxidative stress by modulating TIA1 (blue dots). MARK4 and TIA1 synergistically increase tau (purple) accumulation, and the reduction of the TIA1 ortholog suppresses neurodegeneration in a fly model.

Crystallization of Amorphous Olivine: Why Is It Faster with Iron?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Olivine is one of the most abundant silicate minerals in cosmic environments, occurring largely in amorphous form in the interstellar medium before crystallizing within protoplanetary disks.

Characterization of the key membrane protein cytochrome Cyc2 from Ghiorsea bivora

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study reports the first detailed biochemical analysis of Cyc2TAG1_1, a cytochrome protein involved in microbial iron oxidation. We produced and purified this enzyme in E. coli, then measured its iron‐oxidizing efficiency, and characterized its electrical and structural properties.

The dust budget crisis in high-redshift submillimetre galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We apply a chemical evolution model to investigate the sources and evolution of dust in a sample of 26 high-redshift (z > 1) submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) from the literature, with complete photometry from ultraviolet to the submillimetre.
