Engaging community members to ensure culturally specific language is used in research: should I use gay, queer, MSM, or this other new acronym?

Research Involvement and Engagement, 2023
Researchers often use terminology to define their participant groups that is rooted in a clinical understanding of the group’s shared identity(ies).

The C/M Ratio of AGB Stars in the Local Group Galaxies

Universe, 2022
The number ratio of carbon-rich to oxygen-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars (the so-called C/M ratio) is closely related to the evolution environment of the host galaxy.

A Study of the Properties and Dynamics of the Disk of Satellites in a Milky-Way-like Galaxy System

Galaxies, 2023
The dynamics of the satellite systems of Milky-Way-like galaxies offer a useful means by which to study the galaxy formation process in the cosmological context. It has been suggested that the currently observed anisotropic distribution of the satellites

ON THE MASS OF THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2014
We use recent proper motion measurements of the tangential velocity of M31, along with its radial velocity and distance, to derive the likelihood of the sum of halo masses of the Milky Way and M31. This is done using a sample halo pairs in the Bolshoi cosmological simulation of $ $CDM cosmology selected to match properties and environment of the Local

Reionization of the Local Group of galaxies [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011
We present the first detailed structure formation and radiative transfer simulations of the reionization history of our cosmic neighbourhood. To this end, we follow the formation of the Local Group of galaxies and nearby clusters by means of constrained simulations, which use the available observational constraints to construct a representation of ...

Improved access yet inequitable experience: gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men’s views of more inclusive criteria for source plasma donation

BMC Public Health, 2023
Background Canada has incrementally reduced restrictions to blood and plasma donation that impact men who have sex with men, gay, bisexual, and queer men, and some Two Spirit, transgender and non-binary individuals (MSM/2SGBTQ+). Prior to the launch of a

Are Disks of Satellites Comprised of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies?

Galaxies, 2021
It was found that satellites of nearby galaxies can form flattened co-rotating structures called disks of satellites or planes of satellites. Their existence is not expected by the current galaxy formation simulations in the standard dark matter-based ...

Changes of Dynamics in Local Productive Systems Based on the Iberian Pig Transformation Industry in Western Sierra Morena (Spain)

Land, 2021
Local Productive Systems (hereinafter LPSs) based on agro-food industries constitute alternative models of development in peripheral rural areas that are subject to internal and external dynamics and processes.

Sustainability and Tourist Activities in Protected Natural Areas: The Case of Three Natural Parks of Andalusia (Spain)

Land, 2022
As a form of protection, a nature park is often created to protect and valorise natural and cultural heritage in peripheral rural areas. However, in terms of multifunctionality, new nature parks incorporate traditional productive activities, such as ...

Barriers and enablers to source plasma donation by gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men under revised eligibility criteria: protocol for a multiple stakeholder feasibility study

Health Research Policy and Systems, 2020
Background Blood donation policy in Canada for gay, bisexual and other men who have had sex with men (gbMSM) has changed progressively in the last decade from indefinite deferral to 3-month deferral from last male-to-male sex.
