Evidence for Mass-dependent Evolution of Transitional Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
The Astrophysical JournalThe presence of transitional dwarf galaxies in cluster environments supports the hypothesis that infalling star-forming galaxies are transformed into quiescent early-type dwarf galaxies (ETdGs) through environmental effects.

The Magellanic Group and the Seven Dwarfs [PDF]
, 2008 The Magellanic Clouds were the largest members of a group of dwarf galaxies that entered the Milky Way (MW) halo at late times. This group, dominated by the LMC, contained ~4% of the mass of the Milky Way prior to its accretion and tidal disruption, but ~

The Effect of Seductive Details on Knowledge Retention in Physics Videos: A Mixed Methods Study
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Research reports that interesting but irrelevant information, seductive details, in teaching material can impede learning. In science education, the inclusion of historical narratives in lessons to promote interest has been recommended but may hinder learning.

Star Formation History of Dwarf Galaxies in Cosmological Hydrodynamic Simulations
Advances in Astronomy, 2010 We examine the past and current work on the star formation (SF) histories of dwarf galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The results obtained from different numerical methods are still somewhat mixed, but the differences are understandable ...

Searching for TeV Dark Matter in Irregular Dwarf Galaxies with HAWC Observatory
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present the results of dark matter (DM) searches in a sample of 31 dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies within the field of view of the HAWC Observatory.

Wandering globular clusters: the first dwarf galaxies in the universe?
, 2010 In the last decade we witness an advent of new types of dwarf stellar systems in cluding ultra-compact dwarfs, ultra-faint dwarf spheroidals, and exotic globular clusters, breaking the old simple paradigm for dwarf galaxies and globular clusters.

Visionaries and Crackpots, Maniacs and Saints: Existential Risk and the Politics of Longtermism
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite advancing strong claims about our collective priorities, longtermism has received little attention in debates in political philosophy. I first provide an account of longtermism that highlights the way it departs from established work on intergenerational justice.

A Role for the Plastidial GPT2 Translocator in the Modulation of Lignin Biosynthesis
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page 6458-6472, September 2025.ABSTRACT Engineering plants with reduced lignin content can result in pleiotropic growth defects. In stems of Arabidopsis plants with reduced expression of hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT), the plastidial glucose 6‐phosphate: phosphate co‐transporter GPT2 is highly overexpressed, and this coincides with reduced lignin ...
