Optical polarimetry studies of Seyfert galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Optical imaging polarimetry has been performed on seven nearby Seyfert galaxies, three with face-on and four with edge-on host galaxies of various morphological classifications.

Bronchoscopy Robot with Enhanced Flexibility and Stability via Multi‐Segment Variable Stiffness Catheter

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic bronchoscopy robot with a novel multi‐segment variable stiffness catheter. This catheter can not only move flexibly in the narrow bronchi but also harden according to the need to provide support. Combined with remote wireless magnetic field drive, it provides a more precise and effective solution for biopsy of deep lung ...

Measuring the Spin of Spiral Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2006
We compute the angular momentum, the spin parameter and the related distribution function for Dark Matter halos hosting a spiral galaxy. We base on scaling laws, inferred from observations, that link the properties of the galaxy to those of the host halo; we further assume that the Dark Matter has the same total specific angular momentum of the baryons.

Rectangular Spiral Galaxies are still hard

open access: yesComputational Geometry, 2023
Spiral Galaxies is a pencil-and-paper puzzle played on a grid of unit squares: given a set of points called centers, the goal is to partition the grid into polyominoes such that each polyomino contains exactly one center and is 180° rotationally symmetric about its center.

Mapping the dynamics, star-formation rates, and chemical properties of galaxies with integral field spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Major advances in the development of instruments for eight and ten meter class telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of galaxy formation. In particular, Integral Field Spectrographs (which produce a three dimensional {x, y, velocity) map of a ...

The possible evolution of pitch angles of spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The origin and maintenance of spiral structure in galaxies, the correlation between different types of spiral structure and several proposed mechanisms for their generation, and the evolution of spiral arms of galaxies with time are questions that are ...

Targeting Amastigote and Trypomastigote Phases: Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Strategy Against Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (

Origin and Evolution of Large-scale Magnetic Fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Magnetic elds are ubiquitous at all scales in the Universe and have been observed in galaxies and clusters of galaxies via observations of di use radio emission and Faraday Rotation Measures.

The Tully-Fisher relation of spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Tully-Fisher (TF) relation is an empirically establish correlation between the luminosity of a spiral galaxy and its rotational velocity (Tully-Fisher, 1977). We used the Tully-Fisher relation to probe the dark matter (DM) distribution in the optical

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...
