Mass loss of stars on the asymptotic giant branch

, 2018
As low- and intermediate-mass stars reach the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), they have developed into intriguing and complex objects that are major players in the cosmic gas/dust cycle.

Giant Surface Plasmon Induced Drag Effect (SPIDEr) in Metal Nanowires

, 2009
Here, for the first time we predict a giant surface plasmon-induced drag effect (SPIDEr), which exists under conditions of the extreme nanoplasmonic confinement.

Personality, Stereotypy, and Responses to Crate Entry in Captive Giant Pandas

Animals
Understanding how individual personality traits relate to stress and abnormal behaviors is essential for improving animal welfare and management. However, few studies have quantitatively examined these relationships in giant pandas.

Sequence analysis of the ATP synthase of subunits (ATP8 and ATP6) genes of mitochondrial DNA genome from Ailuropoda melanoleuca

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
To explore the effects of the mutations of ATP6 and ATP8 genes on energy metabolism and genetic structure, we sequenced the ATP6 and ATP8 genes of Ailuropoda melanoleuca.

On the correlation between metallicity and the presence of giant planets

, 2009
The correlation between stellar metallicity and the presence of giant planets is well established. It has been tentatively explained by the possible increase of planet formation probability in stellar disks with enhanced amount of metals.

Oligarchic and giant impact growth of terrestrial planets in the presence of gas giant planet migration

, 2005
We present the results of N--body simulations which examine the effect that gas giant planet migration has on the formation of terrestrial planets. The models incorporate a 0.5 Jupiter mass planet undergoing type II migration through an inner protoplanet-

Biochemical Characteristics of Urine Metabolomics in Female Giant Pandas at Different Estrous Stages

Animals
The composition of urinary metabolites can reflect the physiological state of animals. Investigating the alterations in urine metabolomics during the estrus stage can provide valuable insights for enhancing the efficacy of estrus monitoring.
