Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

ON THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE BROAD-LINE REGION IN LOW-LUMINOSITY ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI [PDF]
, 2009 The disk-wind scenario for the broad-line region (BLR) and toroidal obscuration in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) predicts the disappearance of the BLR at low luminosities.

The Effects of Carbonate Precipitation on the Physical Properties of Basalt
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract To avoid the negative consequences of climate change, there is an urgent need to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Carbon mineralization—the conversion of injected CO2 into stable carbonate minerals—offers a promising pathway for large‐scale, permanent geologic storage. While projects such as CarbFix have demonstrated its feasibility,

X-Ray Variability as a Probe of Advection-dominated Accretion in Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]
, 1998 As a class, LINERs and low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) tend to show little or no significant short-term variability (i.e., with timescales less than a day).

The Amazon River‐Breeze Circulation Limits Detection of Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions in Warm Clouds
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Increased aerosol concentrations can brighten low‐level clouds and extend their lifetimes, but aerosol–cloud interactions (ACI) remain highly uncertain and difficult to quantify. We show that part of this uncertainty is caused by topographical influences on clouds, that is, those arising from land–water contrasts.

Revealing the Accretion Flow in M87*: Insights from Faraday Rotation
The Astrophysical JournalThe Faraday rotation measure (RM) is a commonly used tool to trace electron number density and magnetic fields in hot accretion flows, particularly in low-luminosity accreting supermassive black holes.

Radio Sources in Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei. II. Very Long Baseline Interferometry Detections of Compact Radio Cores and Jets in a Sample of LINERs [PDF]
, 2000 We have used the VLBA at 5 GHz to observe all galaxies with nuclear radio flux densities above 3.5 mJy found in a VLA survey at 15 GHz of a sample of nearby LINER galaxies.

Emergent Freestanding Complex Oxide Membranes for Multifunctional Applications
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.This review surveys freestanding oxide membranes and covers fabrication and three pathways for studies and devices: strain‐free and strained membranes, and van der Waals‐integrated heterostructures. We show how coupled oxide responses map onto these routes and cross‐couple to expand behaviors.
