Abstract WArning System for AVIation Exposure to Solar energetic particles (WASAVIES) is a physics‐based nowcasting system designed to support warning operations for aviation exposure to solar energetic particles (SEPs) by providing near‐real‐time global SEP dose‐rate estimates.

Antifreeze proteins from winter‐active spiders were purified using their affinity for ice. After LC–MSMS characterization, corresponding transcripts were identified. The antifreeze protein folds as a β‐solenoid with a large flat ice‐binding site on one surface and can bind to ice crystals and prevent their growth at −4 °C.

The Theory of Spiral Structure of Galaxies [PDF]
A Landau-type instability mechanism for generating spiral waves is suggested.Two populations of stars, Populations I and II, are considered, the second one with mean rotational velocity zero. Then a dispersion relation is derived which is reduced to the Lin-Shu dispersion relation in the case of vanishing Population II. The amplification of the wave is

A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should

Summary Flowering of perennial Arabis alpina is differentially regulated on primary and axillary shoots. Although contributions of vernalization and ageing pathways have been analysed, those of photoperiodic flowering genes CONSTANS (CO), FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), and TWIN‐SISTER OF FT (TSF) remain unexplored.

Substituent‐Based Modulation of Self‐Assembly and Immunogenicity of Amphipathic Peptides
This study systematically investigates how positional and subtle changes, such as substituents on the phenyl ring attached to short amphipathic peptides, influence their self‐assembly, fibril morphology, and immunogenic responses. ABSTRACT Self‐assembled peptide‐based biomaterials provide versatile platforms for biomedical uses, featuring customizable ...

Spiral structure in external galaxies [PDF]
The need for observing at least four different categories of optical objects for a satisfactory definition of optical spiral structure is emphasized. A sequence of optical form-types for the description of spiral structure is outlined. A pronounced difference in the nature of the spiral structure of the outer and inner parts of Messier 33 is ...

Magnetic fields in spiral galaxies [PDF]
Radio synchrotron emission is a powerful tool to study the strength and structure of magnetic fields in galaxies. Unpolarized synchrotron emission traces isotropic turbulent fields which are strongest in spiral arms and bars (20-30 μG) and in central starburst regions (50-100 μG).
