The Milky Way Radial Metallicity Gradient as an Equilibrium Phenomenon: Why Old Stars Are Metal Rich

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Metallicities of both gas and stars decline toward large radii in spiral galaxies, a trend known as the radial metallicity gradient. We quantify the evolution of the metallicity gradient in the Milky Way as traced by APOGEE red giants with age estimates ...

The Milky Way and the evolution of disk galaxies

open access: yes, 2002
We present a phenomenological approach to the study of disk galaxy evolution, based on i) a detailed modelling of the Milky Way (used as a prototype disk galaxy) and ii) an extension of the model to other disks through some simple scaling relations, obtained in the framework of Cold Dark matter models.

Molecular Appendix Adjusted Architectural Propagations of Red‐Light Controlled Macroscopic Photoactuating Performances

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic chloroazobenzenes, bearing different amino acids as end groups alanine, phenylalanine, and valine, exhibit excellent photoisomerizations. Varying structures of three amino acid groups participate in supramolecular formations and therefore photoinduced morphological transformations via adjusting intermolecular interactions. These interaction

True Pair-instability Supernova Descendant: Implications for the First Stars’ Mass Distribution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The initial mass function (IMF) of the first Population III (Pop III) stars remains a persistent mystery. Their predicted massive nature implies the existence of stars exploding as pair-instability supernovae (PISNe), but no observational evidence had ...

On the early chemical evolution of the Milky Way

open access: yes, 2006
A few topics concerning the early chemical evolution of the Milky Way are critically discussed. In particular, it is argued that: 1) Observed abundance patterns of extremely metal poor stars (of Pop. II) do not constrain the mass range of the first generation (Pop.

Near‐Infrared‐Driven Metal–Organic Frameworks‐Based Nanorobots for Controlled Photothermal‐Chemical Therapy Synergistic Induction of Cancer Cell Death

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To achieve efficient cancer cell death, a bowl‐shaped PDA@UiO‐66@DOX nanorobot drug‐delivery nanoplatform was developed. Near‐infrared irradiation not only drives the nanorobot to exhibit self‐thermophoretic motion and elevates temperature but also triggers Doxorubicin (DOX) release via hyperthermia, enhancing cancer cells uptake of DOX and thereby ...

A North–South Metallicity Asymmetry in the Outer Galactic Disk—Evidence for the Pericentric Passage of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present maps of the mean metallicity distributions on the Galactocentric R – Z plane at different azimuthal angles using red clump stars selected from the LAMOST and APOGEE surveys.

Cell Cycle Control of Nuclear Metabolism Couples Phosphatidylinositol Signaling to Histone Methylation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nuclear metabolism oscillates during cell cycle progression. Quantitative chromatome proteomics and imaging reveal phase‐specific dynamics of PIP5K1A and nuclear PIP2, linking phosphatidylinositol metabolism to histone methylation. This work identifies nuclear lipid metabolism as a previously unrecognized regulatory axis coordinating chromatin ...

GSH‐Responsive Nanoparticles Enhance Hepatocellular Carcinoma Immunotherapy Through Synergistic Effects of Cuproptosis and PI3K Inhibitor Combination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuproptosis, an emerging form of programmed cell death, is capable of inducing mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, the PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR signaling pathway contributes to tumor cell progression by reprogramming mitochondrial morphology and function.

On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. VIII. Early Formation of the Galactic Spheroid

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We introduce a new photometric catalog of RR Lyrae (RRL) variables (∼300,000) mainly based on data available in public datasets. We also present the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic dataset of RRLs and blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars ever ...
