Chemical and kinematical evolution in nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]
Dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the least massive and luminous objects known to exist. These galaxies are often considered as the fossil building blocks of massive systems predicted by some cosmological models.

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 ...

Elliptical galaxies: fundamental relations, environmental effects and peculiar motions [PDF]
This thesis investigates the reliability of the D - σ and D - Mg(_2) distance indicators for elliptical galaxies. In particular, we test whether these empirical correlations are affected by differences in the stellar populations of elliptical galaxies ...

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology
This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

Objective-prism and slit-spectra redshifts in a study of the distribution of galaxies
A thorough and detailed investigation into the accuracy, reliability and consistency of the objective-prism redshift technique with changes in plate material, measuring machine and reduction techniques has been undertaken.

VLT spectroscopy of globular cluster systems:II. spectroscopic ages, metallicities, and [alpha/Fe] ratios of globular clusters in early-type galaxies [PDF]
An analysis of ages, metallicities, and [ α/Fe] ratios of globular cluster systems in early-type galaxies is presented, based on Lick index measurements summarized in Puzia et al. (2004, A&A, 415, 123, Paper I of this series).

Molecular hydrogen in galaxies [PDF]
This study aims to understand the key role played by molecular hydrogen in the evolution of galaxies, with a view to constraining its radial distribution in the Galaxy and the CO→H(_2) conversion factor α(_20).The star formation rate is shown to be ...

Basal‐like breast cancer (BLBC) is aggressive and often exhibits inherent or acquired resistance to radiotherapy (RT), a primary treatment option. RT resistance is underpinned by molecular alterations, many of which are poorly understood. Here, RT‐induced transcriptomic changes were analyzed using bulk and spatial sequencing in a BLBC mouse model and ...

Groups, clusters and superclusters of galaxies [PDF]
Galaxies are observed in a diverse range of associations. Understanding the dynamical, statistical and clustering properties of aggregations of galaxies forms the main body of this thesis.

Abstract BACKGROUND Increased awareness of sustainable food production and vegan, vegetarian and flexitarian diets are driving the growth in dairy substitutes, particularly plant‐based yoghurts. To understand consumer perception or mind‐set and facilitate adoption of plant‐based yoghurt products, a multi‐phase study using both qualitative and ...
