The association between conjunctival and scleral thickness and ocular surface ultraviolet autofluorescence

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Ultraviolet autofluorescence (UVAF) imaging is used to visualise ocular surface changes due to sunlight exposure and so is considered to be a biomarker for UV damage.

Finite-source and finite-lens effects in astrometric microlensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The aim of this paper is to study the astrometric trajectory of microlensing events with an extended lens and/or source. We consider not only a dark lens but also a luminous lens as well.
