Star-crossed Clusters: Asteroseismic Ages for Individual Stars Are in Tension with the Ages of Their Host Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
A meta-analysis of seismic ages determined for individual stars in the well-studied open and globular clusters NGC 6819, NGC 6791, M67, M4, M19, M80, and M9 reveals both high variance across measurements and a possible discrepancy with independent ...

Survey for Distant Stellar Aggregates in the Galactic Disk: Detecting 2000 Star Clusters and Candidates, along with the Dwarf Galaxy IC 10

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Despite having data for over 10 ^9 stars from Gaia, less than 10 ^4 star clusters and candidates have been discovered. In particular, distant star clusters are rarely identified, due to the challenges posed by heavy extinction and great distance. However,

Be STARS IN THE OPEN CLUSTER NGC 6830 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT We report the discovery of two new Be stars, and re-identify one known Be star in the open cluster NGC 6830. Eleven Hα emitters were discovered using the Hα imaging photometry of the Palomar Transient Factory Survey. Stellar membership of the candidates was verified with photometric and kinematic information using 2MASS data and

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Be stars in open clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1985
Rotational velocities and spectral types have been determined for Be stars in 12 open clusters in both the northern and the southern sky, and color-magnitude or H-R diagrams constructed for each from available photometric data. The location of the Be stars in the color-magnitude diagrams shows again that Be stars may exist in various evolutionary ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

A Thorough Exploration of the Metal-rich Massive Open Cluster NGC 6253: Focusing on Membership, Binaries, Stragglers, and Mass Function

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study provides an in-depth analysis of the ancient open galactic cluster NGC 6253, characterized by the presence of both blue and yellow straggler stars.

VARIABLE STARS IN THE OPEN CLUSTER NGC 7142 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2011
We present new discoveries of variable stars near the turnoff of the old open cluster NGC 7142. Contrary to previous studies, we detect eight contact or near contact eclipsing binaries (including three near the cluster turnoff), and most of these have good probability of being cluster members.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
