Star and Cluster Formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A great burst of cluster formation increased the rate at which open clusters were formed in the Large Magellanic Cloud 3-5 Gyr ago by at least an order of magnitude.

Dynamics of Open Star Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985
The dynamical evolution of open star clusters has been studied successfully by numerical N-body simulations. We compare in detail the theoretically predicted lifetimes with those derived from the observed age distribution of open clusters. Rare but efficient encounters between clusters and giant molecular clouds are probably responsible for the sudden ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

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 ...

New atlas of open star clusters

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
Due to numerous new discoveries of open star clusters in the last two decades, astronomers need an easy-touse resource to get visual information on the relative position of clusters in the sky. Therefore we propose a new atlas of open star clusters.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

On the Roles of Stellar Rotation and Binarity in NGC 2423's Main-sequence Turnoff Region

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Research has shown that many young and intermediate-age clusters (younger than ∼2 Gyr) have extended main sequences and extended main-sequence turnoffs (eMSTOs), which cannot be adequately described by a single isochrone. The reason for the extended main

A Study of Stellar Spins in 15 Open Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We analyze spectroscopic and photometric data to determine the projected inclinations of stars in 11 open clusters, placing constraints on the spin-axis distributions of six clusters.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

On the disc and halo of the milky way through a study of star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2000
The subject is the metallicity and the correlation between the metallicity and spatial distribution of star clusters of the Milky Way. The open star clusters are confirmed as good indicators for the population of the galactic disc, whereas the globular ...
