Properties of barred galaxies with the environment

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Bars are elongated structures developed by a large fraction of disk galaxies in their central few kiloparsecs. However, the bar formation process is still not fully understood, particularly the role played by the galaxy environment in the ...

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

Advanced 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 ...

No Evidence of Asymmetrically Enhanced Star Formation in Infalling Galaxies in UNIONS

The Astrophysical Journal
Ram pressure stripping is a well-known environmental quenching mechanism that removes gas from galaxies infalling into groups and clusters. In some extreme examples of ram pressure stripping, galaxies with extended gas tails show evidence of enhanced ...

Humanized immune system animal models and their recent applications

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this review, we provide an updated and comprehensive overview of the current state of humanized immune system animal model research. We discuss the variety of techniques used to produce humanized mice with their respective strengths and weaknesses, and evaluate the advantages and limitations of these models, including issues with incomplete immune ...

The Importance of Gas Starvation in Driving Satellite Quenching in Galaxy Groups at z ~ 0.8

The Astrophysical Journal
We present results from a Keck/DEIMOS survey to study satellite quenching in group environments at z  ~ 0.8 within the Extended Groth Strip (EGS). We target 11 groups in the EGS with extended X-ray emission. We obtain high-quality spectroscopic redshifts

VERTICO and IllustrisTNG: The Spatially Resolved Effects of Environment on Galactic Gas

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
It has been shown in previous publications that the TNG100 simulation quantitatively reproduces the observed reduction in each of the total atomic and total molecular hydrogen gas for galaxies within massive halos, i.e., dense environments.

The THESEUS Space Mission and the Infrared Telescope Calibration Unit

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Transient High‐Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is an ESA M7 mission concept currently in Phase A, designed to exploit gamma‐ray bursts to probe the early Universe while advancing multi‐messenger and time‐domain astrophysics. To achieve its ambitious goals, THESEUS will combine wide‐band x‐ray and gamma‐ray monitors with an

Why Are Some Optically Red Spirals Near-ultraviolet− r Blue?

The Astrophysical Journal
To understand the complicated formation processes of disk galaxies, we carry out a comparative study of near-ultraviolet (NUV)− r blue and red spiral galaxies drawn from a parent sample of u−r red spirals with M _*  > 10 ^10.5 M _⊙ at 0.02

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

Biotechnology 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 (

The SAGA Survey. VI. The Size–Mass Relation for Low-mass Galaxies Across Environments

The Astrophysical Journal
We investigate how Milky Way (MW)–like environments influence the sizes and structural properties of low-mass galaxies by comparing satellites of MW analogs from the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey with two control samples: an ...
