Evaluating the origin and spread of spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) in Japan
Population Ecology, EarlyView.The invasive spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) is native to China and is a serious economic pest in the Republic of Korea and the United States, though it is not considered a pest in Japan. We established a distribution map of L. delicatula in Japan through a comprehensive review of published literature and citizen science reports and analyzed ...

Massive pre-main sequence stars in M17
, 2016 The formation process of massive stars is still poorly understood. Massive young stellar objects (mYSOs) are deeply embedded in their parental clouds, they are rare and thus typically distant, and their reddened spectra usually preclude the determination

Population Ecology, EarlyView.In this study, we compared three methods for kinship identification using different algorithms in samples of wild Pacific bluefin tuna and generated genotyping data. The three methods resulted in different numbers of inferred kinship pairs for both generated and actual data. Particularly for the half‐sibling pairs, considerable number of false‐positive

Main-sequence stellar eruption model for V838 Mon [PDF]
, 2002 We propose that the energy source of the outburst of V838 Mon and similar objects is an accretion event, i.e., gravitational energy rather than thermonuclear runaway. We show that the merger of two main sequence stars, of masses 1.5 Mo and 0.1-0.5 Mo can

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1993 AbstractThe Pre-Main-Sequence (pre-MS) is defined as the phase following the protostellar stage and ending with the ignition of hydrogen in the stellar core. Models in hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium such as typical “Hayashi track” models are basically adequate to describe the internal structure of pre-MS stars, although for a fraction of pre-MS ...

Quasar main sequence: A line or a plane [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 Context. A quasar main sequence is widely believed to reveal itself through objects represented in a plane spanned by two parameters: the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of Hβ and the ratio of Fe II to Hβ equivalent width. This sequence is related to the application to quasar properties of principal component analysis (PCA), which reveals that the ...

Main trends of the quasar main sequence - effect of viewing angle [PDF]
Contributions of the Astronomical Observatory Skalnaté Pleso, 2020 We address the effect of the viewing angle of the accretion disk plane and the geometry of the broad-line region (BLR) with the goal of interpreting the distribution of quasars along the main sequence (MS). We utilize photoionization code CLOUDY to model the BLR FeII emission, incorporating the grossly underestimated role of the form factor (f).

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

An HST Study of the Substellar Population of NGC 2024
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We performed an HST/WFC3-IR imaging survey of the young stellar cluster NGC 2024 in three filters probing the 1.4 μ m H _2 O absorption feature, characteristic of the population of low-mass and substellar-mass objects down to a few Jupiter masses.

Fundamental properties of lower main-sequence stars
, 2012 The field of exoplanet research has revitalized interest in M dwarfs, which have become favorite targets of Doppler and transit surveys. Accurate measurements of their basic properties such as masses, radii, and effective temperatures have revealed ...
