We report on a detailed abundance study of six bright, mostly southern, slowly rotating late B-stars: HD 1279 (B8III), HD 99803 (B9V), HD 123445 (B9V), HD 147550 (B9V), HD 171961 (B8III), and HD 202671 (B5II/III), hitherto reported as normal stars.

K2 DISCOVERY OF YOUNG ECLIPSING BINARIES IN UPPER SCORPIUS: DIRECT MASS AND RADIUS DETERMINATIONS FOR THE LOWEST MASS STARS AND INITIAL CHARACTERIZATION OF AN ECLIPSING BROWN DWARF BINARY [PDF]
We report the discovery of three low-mass double-lined eclipsing binaries in the pre-main sequence Upper Scorpius association, revealed by K2 photometric monitoring of the region over ∼78 days. The orbital periods of all three systems are , M 2 = 0.1076

D2HGDH Deficiency Regulates Seizures through GSH/Prdx6/ROS‐Mediated Excitatory Synaptic Activity
Downregulating D‐2‐hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase (D2HGDH) increases epilepsy susceptibility by altering reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and synaptic function, contributing to oxidative stress in neurons. The acid calcium‐independent phospholipase A2 (aiPLA2) inhibitor MJ33 restores glutathione reduced/glutathione oxidized balance, reducing ROS ...

MASS TRANSFER IN ECLIPSING BINARY STARS
Analysis of the properties of the eclipsing binary stars shows, that the stream-like mechanism of the mass transfer switches on at a contact evolutionary stage, preceding to a stage of binaries with a subgiant.

Eclipsing Binaries: Tools for Calibrating the Extragalactic Distance Scale [PDF]
In the last decade, over 7000 eclipsing binaries have been discovered in the Local Group through various variability surveys. Measuring fundamental parameters of these eclipsing binaries has become feasible with 8 meter class telescopes, making it possible to use eclipsing binaries as distance indicators.

EXPECTED LARGE SYNOPTIC SURVEY TELESCOPE (LSST) YIELD OF ECLIPSING BINARY STARS [PDF]
In this paper, we estimate the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) yield of eclipsing binary stars, which will survey ∼20,000 deg2 of the southern sky during a period of 10 years in six photometric passbands to r ∼ 24.5.

Unwrapping the Ciliary Coat: High‐Resolution Structure and Function of the Ciliary Glycocalyx
The ciliary membrane is decorated in glycosylated proteins that define the interaction of the cilium with its environment. The main component of the ciliary coat of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, FMG1, is characterized by cryo‐electron microscopy, proteomics, and live cell microscopy with flow‐based adhesion assays.

Photometric analysis of eclipsing binary stars
In this paper, photometric analysis of two short period group of the eclipsing binaries (RS CVn); RT And and BH Vir is presented. New physical and geometric parameters were obtained by performing two computer modeling.

Study of spider pulsar binary eclipses and discovery of an eclipse mechanism transition [PDF]
We present a comparative study of the low-frequency eclipses of spider (compact, irradiating binary) PSRs B1957+20 and J1816+4510. Combining these data with those of three other eclipsing systems we study the frequency dependence of the eclipse duration.
