Ultradeep Imaging of Nearby Dwarf Irregular Galaxies: Stellar Haloes and Disk Structure

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We have examined the stellar structure of 10 nearby, low stellar mass (10 ^6 –6 × 10 ^7 M _⊙ ) dwarf irregular galaxies by fitting ellipses as a function of surface brightness on ultradeep V images. These are compared to far-ultraviolet images as tracers

A Young Star Cluster in the Leo a Galaxy

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
We report a serendipitous discovery of a star cluster in the dwarf irregular galaxy Leo A. Young age (~28 Myr) and low mass (~510 M⊙) estimates are based on the isochrone fit assuming a metallicity derived for HII regions (Z = 0.0007).

Collisionless Shocks: Contemporary State After Three Quarters of a Century of Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The collisionless shock research started in the late 1950s. Since then, plenty of data have been accumulated due to the large number of missions in the heliosphere, providing in situ measurements of the fields and particles. The quality of these measurements has vastly improved, especially in the last two decades.

Near-Capacity Irregular Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An Irregular Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation based Iterative Decoding (Ir-BICM-ID) aided scheme is proposed. The irregularity of the scheme pervades the three basic components of BICM-ID, namely the encoder, the unity-rate precoder and the bit-to-symbol

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

open access: yesEcological 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.

Personalization and Fortification of In‐Space Manufactured Emulsified Beverages for Long‐Term Space Travel

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The current trend of individualized food items (nutrient content and flavor) can be particularly valuable to support people's health and well‐being in isolated environments where access to fresh foods and diverse nutrition is difficult. At the same time, bioactive compounds and micronutrients can be employed to countermeasure any health ...

Clustering and redshift-space distortions in QSO and galaxy surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this thesis, we exploit the potential of existing QSO and galaxy surveys for investigating the nature of the large scale structure in the Universe. A detailed analysis of clustering and redshift- space distortions allows us to constrain cosmological ...

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4126-4139, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...
