Fundamental properties of single O stars in the MiMeS survey

, 2014
International audienceWe present preliminary results of the determination of fundamental parameters of single O-type stars in the MiMeS survey. We present the sample and we focus on surface CNO abundances, showing how they change as stars evolve off the ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Methodology for measuring fundamental parameters and associated uncertainties for middle and cool main-sequence stars

, 2014
We have performed a study of a representative group of main-sequence stars in the temperature range 5000-10000 K in order to test our methodology for determining fundamental parameters and for the assesment of associated uncertainties. The stars selected

Fundamental Parameters of Exoplanets and Their Host Stars

, 2013
For much of human history we have wondered how our solar system formed, and whether there are any other planets like ours around other stars. Only in the last 20 years have we had direct evidence for the existence of exoplanets, with the number of known exoplanets dramatically increasing in recent years, especially with the success of the Kepler ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Equilibria and oscillations of magnetised neutron stars

, 2010
We investigate equilibrium configurations and oscillation spectra of neutron stars,modelled as rotating magnetised fluid bodies in Newtonian gravity. We also explorethe idea that these model neutron stars could have dynamics analogous to rigid-bodyfree ...

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Data-driven Stellar Intrinsic Colors and Dust Reddenings for Spectrophotometric Data: From the Blue-edge Method to a Machine Learning Approach

The Astrophysical Journal
Intrinsic colors (ICs) of stars are essential for studies on both stellar physics and dust reddening. In this work, we developed an XGBoost model to predict ICs with the atmospheric parameters T _eff , ${\rm{log}}\,g$ , and [M/H].
