On Dust Extinction of Gamma-ray Burst Host Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Although it is well recognized that gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows are obscured and reddened by dust in their host galaxies, the wavelength-dependence and quantity of dust extinction are still poorly known.

The Extinction and De-Extinction of Species

open access: yesPhilosophy & Technology, 2016
In this paper, we discuss the following four alternative ways of understanding the outcomes of resurrection biology (also known as de-extinction). Implications of each of the ways are discussed with respect to concepts of species and extinction. (1) Replication: animals created by resurrection biology do not belong to the original species but are ...

The extinction of the dinosaurs [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Reviews, 2014
ABSTRACTNon‐avian dinosaurs went extinct 66 million years ago, geologically coincident with the impact of a large bolide (comet or asteroid) during an interval of massive volcanic eruptions and changes in temperature and sea level. There has long been fervent debate about how these events affected dinosaurs.

Cannabidiol regulation of learned fear: implications for treating anxiety-related disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Anxiety and trauma-related disorders are psychiatric diseases with a lifetime prevalence of up to 25%. Phobias and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are characterized by abnormal and persistent memories of fear-related contexts and cues.

Dust distribution in L1217/L1219: Nice vs. Nicer [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2004
The dust in molecular clouds reliably traces the molecular gas within. We used this assumption to get an estimate of the dense cores size and mass in L1217/L1219 by deriving the total optical extinction, and therefore, the total column density.

Extinction behavior for a parabolic p-Laplacian equation with gradient source and singular potential

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2022
We concern with the extinction behavior of the solution for a parabolic p-Laplacian equation with gradient source and singular potential. By energy estimate approach, Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, a series of ordinary differential inequalities ...

The Optical to Mid-infrared Extinction Law Based on the APOGEE, Gaia DR2, Pan-STARRS1, SDSS, APASS, 2MASS, and WISE Surveys [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
A precise interstellar dust extinction law is critically important to interpret observations. There are two indicators of extinction: the color excess ratio (CER) and the relative extinction.

The Mid-Infrared Extinction Law and its Variation in the Coalsack Nebula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In recent years the wavelength dependence of interstellar extinction from the ultraviolet (UV), optical, through the near- and mid-infrared (IR) has been studied extensively.

Extinction and Non-Extinction of Solutions to a p-Laplace Equation with a Nonlocal Source and an Absorption Term

open access: yesMathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2014
In this short paper, the authors investigate the extinction and non-extinction of solutions to a fast diffusive p-Laplace equation with a nonlocal source and an absorption term.
