We present the OASIS survey program discovery of a substellar companion orbiting the young A1V star HIP 71618, detected using precision astrometry from Gaia and Hipparcos and high-contrast imaging with SCExAO/CHARIS and Keck/NIRC2.

Fluorescence microscopy with an improved contrast for fluorescence images is developed using an optical interference mirror (OIM) slide, which can enhance the fluorescence from a fluorophore as a result of the double interference of the excitation light ...

Marathon adaptation to spatial contrast: Saturation in sight [PDF]
The contrast thresholds for detecting a 6.0 c/deg vertical sinusoidal test grating were tracked during and after 3 hr inspection of a high-contrast adapting grating of the same spatial frequency and orientation.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Direct Imaging Discovery of Giant Exoplanet β Pictoris d: A Decade-long Game of Hide-and-seek
We report the direct imaging discovery of a third exoplanet in the β Pictoris ( β Pic) system. We detect β Pictoris d ( β Pic d) in noncoronagraphic observations obtained with the Very Large Telescope (VLT) Enhanced Resolution Imager and Spectrograph ...

Bringing mirrors to rest: Grating concepts for ultra-precise interferometry
Paper 93720F, 6 S.Experiments in the field of high precision metrology such as the detection of gravitational waves are crucially limited by the thermal fluctuations of the optical components.

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Contrast threshold elevation following continuous and interrupted adaptation [PDF]
Contrast thresholds for a 6 c/deg sinewave grating were measured following continuous and interrupted adaptation of 10 min duration to a high-contrast (0.6) sinewave grating of the same spatial frequency. Interrupted adaptation was administered as five 2-

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
