Observational Constraints on Interstellar Grain Alignment

open access: yes, 2007
We present new multicolor photo-polarimetry of stars behind the Southern Coalsack. Analyzed together with multiband polarization data from the literature, probing the Chamaeleon I, Musca, rho Opiuchus, R CrA and Taurus clouds, we show that the wavelength

A `bright zone' in male hoverfly (Eristalis tenax) eyes and associated faster motion detection and increased contrast sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Eyes of the hoverfly Eristalis tenax are sexually dimorphic such that males have a fronto-dorsal region of large facets. In contrast to other large flies in which large facets are associated with a decreased interommatidial angle to form a dorsal `acute ...

Local Interstellar Medium Kinematics towards the Southern Coalsack and Chamaeleon-Musca dark clouds

open access: yes, 2003
The results of a spectroscopic programme aiming to investigate the kinematics of the local interstellar medium components towards the Southern Coalsack and Chamaeleon-Musca dark clouds are presented. The analysis is based upon high-resolution (R ~ 60,000)

The Control of the Lubricant Film by the Resistive Method for Scuffing [PDF]

open access: yesTribology in Industry, 2015
The existence of a continuous film of lubricant increases the electrical resistance of the contact that can provide information on the quality of contact’s lubrication.

Present and future potential of plant-derived products to control arthropods of veterinary and medical significance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The use of synthetic pesticides and repellents to target pests of veterinary and medical significance is becoming increasingly problematic. One alternative approach employs the bioactive attributes of plant-derived products (PDPs). These are particularly

Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

A revised estimate of the distance to the clouds in the Chamaeleon complex using the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution

open access: yes, 2017
The determination of the distance to dark star-forming clouds is a key parameter to derive the properties of the cloud itself, and of its stellar content. This parameter is still loosely constrained even in nearby star-forming regions.

Interactions between the endocrine and immune systems in locusts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The prophenoloxidase cascade in the haemolymph of mature adult Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R & F) is activated in response to injection of laminarin, a -1,3 glucan.

Adolescents' trajectories of mental health in the MYRIAD trial

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study explored adolescent's mental health trajectories over the course of a school‐based mindfulness‐based intervention trial (MYRIAD). It examined whether intervention condition (mindfulness vs. teaching‐as‐usual), individual‐level and contextual‐level factors were associated with different trajectories.
