Post‐flight assessment of the OSIRIS‐REx Sample Return Capsule (SRC) for organic and other potential contaminants

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Regolith samples from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu were stowed and delivered to Earth in the OSIRIS‐REx spacecraft's Sample Return Capsule (SRC). We applied multiple analytical techniques to study the components of the post‐flight SRC, with a focus on assessing the conditions and any contaminants to which the Bennu samples were exposed ...

The Dwarf Irregular/Wolf-Rayet Galaxy NGC 4214: I. A New

, 2002
We present the results of a detailed optical and near-IR study of the nearby star-forming dwarf galaxy NGC 4214. We discuss the stellar content, drawing particular attention to the intermediate-age and/or old field stars, which are used as a distance ...

The Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy IZw18

, 2012
We present the results obtained for the Blue compact galaxy IZw18 on the basis of ACS HST data obtained from our group. In particular, we discuss the stellar population and the variable stars content of this galaxy to get information about its star ...

Resolved Stellar Mass Estimation of Nearby Late-type Galaxies for the SPHEREx Era: Dependence on Stellar Population Synthesis Models

The Astronomical Journal
The upcoming all-sky infrared spectrophotometric SPHEREx mission is set to provide spatially resolved stellar mass maps of nearby galaxies, offering more detailed insights than integrated light observations.

Stellar halos and the link to galaxy formation

, 2016
I present a brief overview of how stellar halos may be used to constrain the process of galaxy formation. In particular, streams and substructure in stellar halos trace merger events but can also be used to determine the mass distribution of the host ...

Regulation by the Transcriptional Regulator YdcI in E. coli and (p)ppGpp‐Dependent Activation of ydcI Expression

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator in Escherichia coli, regulates loci like iraP and mqo. Its expression is induced by (p)ppGpp under stress conditions, and protein levels rise during mid‐exponential growth, connecting its role to stress response and metabolism control. ABSTRACT YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator, has been associated with

Stochastic 2-D Galaxy disk Evolution Models. Resolved Stellar Populations in the Galaxy M33

, 2015
We improved the stochastic 2-D galaxy disk models (Mineikis & Vansevičius 2014a) by introducing enriched gas outflows from galaxies and synthetic color-magnitude diagrams of stellar populations.

A Census of Star Formation Histories of Massive Galaxies at 0.6 < z < 1 from Spectrophotometric Modeling Using Bagpipes and Prospector

The Astrophysical Journal
We present individual star formation histories (SFHs) of ∼3000 massive galaxies (log( M _* / M _⊙ ) > 10.5) from the Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census spectroscopic survey at a lookback time of ∼7 billion yr and quantify the population trends ...

Nature's Complexity Alive: Farewell to Several Unificatory Cosmological Arguments for Monism

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Throughout history, numerous thinkers have claimed that monism—in the form of priority monism, existence monism, monotheistic monism, or versions that posit an extra‐cosmic ultimate being—theoretically surpasses pluralism, above all by positing a unified universe.
