The Impact of Initial Composition on Massive Star Evolution and Nucleosynthesis

The Astrophysical Journal
We study the sensitivity of presupernova evolution and supernova nucleosynthesis yields of massive stars to variations of the initial composition. We use the solar abundances from Lodders, and compute two different sets of initial stellar compositions ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Cancer Therapy: Clinical Landscape, Resistance Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Innovations

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
The up‐to‐date clinical progress of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy in solid tumors, specifically the combinational regimens between ICIs and other treatment strategies, the mechanisms underlying primary and acquired resistance, and mechanism‐matched strategies to improve clinical outcomes are synthesized in this review.

The Heavy Metal Survey: The Evolution of Stellar Metallicities, Abundance Ratios, and Ages of Massive Quiescent Galaxies since z ∼ 2

The Astrophysical Journal
We present the elemental abundances and ages of 19 massive quiescent galaxies at z ∼ 1.4 and z ∼ 2.1 from the Keck Heavy Metal Survey. The ultradeep LRIS and MOSFIRE spectra were modeled using a full-spectrum stellar population fitting code with variable

Metagenomics Reveals Microbial Community Shifts Associated With Contrasting Anthropogenic Impacts in Freshwater Sources of A Coastal Protected Area in Southeastern Brazil

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.
Metagenomics revealed distinct anthropogenic signatures in the microbiome of freshwater sources on Marambaia Island, supported by the Anthropogenic Impact Index (AII). Impacted sites showed lower microbial diversity, enrichment of fecal‐associated taxa, and 14 antimicrobial resistance genes, whereas conductivity, salinity, and turbidity explained 88.1%

Saving Bambi from the mower? Using a drone with thermal camera to evaluate a low‐tech scaring technique to reduce roe deer fawn mortality during grass harvest

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Roe deer is a species that hides their neonates as an anti‐predator strategy. This may prove efficient against mammalian predators, such as the red fox; however, it might be an ecological trap as large numbers of fawns are killed by tractors with harvesters each year during grass harvest.

Analysis of the Internal Radial Gradient of Chemical Abundances in Spiral Galaxies from CALIFA

The Astrophysical Journal
The study of chemical evolution is of paramount importance for understanding the evolution of galaxies. Models and observations propose an inside-out mechanism in the formation of spiral galaxy disks, implying a negative radial gradient of elemental ...

A Solar Analog Model for Decrease in Far Ultraviolet Irradiance Under a Grand Minimum

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Solar analog field stars having a range of magnetic activity can provide an estimate of solar spectral irradiance (SSI) variability relevant to understanding the Sun's influence on terrestrial climate. This approach is particularly useful for far ultraviolet (FUV) irradiance that cannot be observed from the Earth surface.

Abundance gradients and galaxy formation

The Astrophysical Journal, 1991
A three-dimensional collisionless code is used to simulate the formation of elliptical galaxies with a time scale for star formation comparable to the collapse time. A one-zone chemical evolution scheme is used to compute the evolution of the abundances of several chemical elements.

Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.

Evidence of Gaia Enceladus Experiencing at Least Two Passages around the Milky Way

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
One of the major recent breakthroughs has been the discovery of the last major merger to happen in the history of the Milky Way. Around 10 Gyr ago, the galaxy Gaia Enceladus with an estimated ∼10% of the Milky Way mass, fell into the potential of our ...
