On the Formation of Hot Jupiters in Stellar Binaries

, 2012
We study the production of Hot Jupiters (HJs) in stellar binaries. We show that the "eccentric Kozai-Lidov" (EKL) mechanism can play a key role in the dynamical evolution of a star-planet-star triple system.

Nutritional and sensory characteristics of local and hybrid East African Highland cooking bananas: Implications for breeding programs

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bananas (Musa species) are an important staple food and cash crop in many parts of the world. The East African Highland cooking bananas form the backbone of food security for millions of Ugandans. The demand for high quality cooking bananas is thus closely linked to their sensory characteristics (which drive consumer preference) and

Measurements of Stellar Inclinations for Kepler Planet Candidates II: Candidate Spin-Orbit Misalignments in Single and Multiple-Transiting Systems [PDF]

, 2013
We present a test for spin-orbit alignment for the host stars of 25 candidate planetary systems detected by the {\it Kepler} spacecraft. The inclination angle of each star's rotation axis was estimated from its rotation period, rotational line broadening,

Extreme Weather Events and Agricultural Total Factor Productivity Growth

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The productivity of the agricultural sector is crucial for food security in a changing climate. This study estimates the impacts of extreme weather events on agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) growth, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the effects of climate change on agriculture.

Causal Inference Without Complete Information: A Closed‐form Solution

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the effect of certain factors or interventions is the objective of many researchers and decision‐makers. However, when using quantitative analyses for this purpose, it is virtually impossible to include all relevant data, which often leads to biased coefficients that only indicate correlation rather than effect.

Pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy during good response to immuno-chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer: a case report

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy is a rapidly progressive and fatal disease in which tumor cells embolize to the pulmonary microvasculature. This condition is characterized by severe dyspnea and right heart failure.

Molecular and clinical features of a Japanese medulloblastoma cohort: Subgroup‐specific prognostic stratification using economical/accessible diagnostic methods

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the molecular subgroup–specific features of a nationwide Japanese cohort comprising 242 medulloblastomas (MBs). Furthermore, we introduce SEE‐6‐CNA, a simple, cost‐effective, and FFPE‐compatible molecular test that is applicable to routine pathology samples and serves as a surrogate for risk stratification in non‐WNT/non‐SHH ...
