Disney's Auteur Problem: Framing Corporate Creativity in a Galaxy Far, Far Away

open access: yesThe Journal of Popular Culture, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At its core, Star Wars is a franchise George Lucas has led via his auteur vision. Since Lucas handed over the franchise reins to Disney, the company has courted several other auteurs to direct new entries in the series—each of those endeavors ended problematically.

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

open access: yesMeteoritics &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 ...

Models of Late-type Disk Galaxies: 1-D Versus 2-D

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2014
We investigate the effects of stochasticity on the observed galaxy parameters by comparing our stochastic star formation two-dimensional (2-D) galaxy evolution models with the commonly used one-dimensional (1-D) models with smooth star formation. The 2-D

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

open access: yesNoûs, 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.

Uncovering an Excess of X-Ray Point Sources in the Halos of Virgo Late-type Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a systematic search for extraplanar X-ray point sources around 19 late-type, highly inclined disk galaxies residing in the Virgo cluster, based on archival Chandra observations reaching a source detection sensitivity of L (0.5–8 keV) ∼ 10 ^38 ...

A C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module links wound‐induced evaporative cooling to tissue repair in plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
A model of the C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module in plant wound healing. Summary Repairing damaged tissues is essential for the survival of all organisms. In plants, tissue injury rapidly triggers defense and repair programs. However, the molecular mechanisms linking early injury cues to the later stage of wound repair remain ...

Barred Galaxies in MaNGA: Stellar Mass Dependence and Black Hole Growth

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study investigates the role of internal structures, such as stellar bars and active galactic nuclei (AGN), in shaping galaxy evolution using 7408 galaxies (2641 barred) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point ...

Ecological Filtering by Tuber Compartments Shapes Stable Core Microbiomes That Underpin Potato Plant Growth Across Environments

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harnessing plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture requires understanding not only whether they can boost crop performance, but also how ecological processes govern their assembly, stability, and functional contributions across environments.

12CO(1-0) observation of isolated late-type galaxies

open access: yes, 2003
We present 12CO(J = 1-0) line observations of 99 galaxies obtained with the SEST 15 m, the Kitt Peak 12 m and the IRAM 30 m telescopes. The target galaxies were selected from the catalogue of isolated galaxies of Karachentseva (1973). These data are thus
