Estimating Cluster Masses: A Comparative Study between Machine Learning and Maximum Likelihood

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We compare an autoencoder convolutional neural network (AE-CNN) with conventional maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) for inferring cluster virial masses, M _v , directly from the galaxy distribution around clusters, without identifying members or ...

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

The Complex Multiwavelength Morphology of the Peculiar Compact Galaxy Group IC 2431

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present new Chandra X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the compact galaxy group IC 2431, and compare with archival ultraviolet, optical, infrared, and radio images. IC 2431 is a starburst system containing three tidally distorted disk galaxies.

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

CMB Multipole Expansion in a Frame Dragging-Sustained Milky Way

open access: yesGalaxies
We study the impact on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) landscape of peculiar rotational general relativistic effects. These effects, on galactic scales, do not possess a Newtonian analogue, and therefore could a priori impact CMB analysis.

High‐Coercivity Nd2Fe14B/α‐Fe Nanocomposites With Ultrafine Nanocrystalline Structure via Zr‐Induced Synchronous Precipitation

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanocomposite permanent magnets with reduced rare‐earth content represent a promising class of materials for next‐generation high‐performance applications. However, asynchronous precipitation of soft and hard magnetic phases often results in grain size mismatch and limited coercivity.

Improving the Determination of Supernova Cosmological Redshifts by Using Galaxy Groups

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
At the low-redshift end ( z < 0.05) of the Hubble diagram with Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia), the contribution to Hubble residual scatter from peculiar velocities (PVs) is of similar size to that due to the limitations of the standardization of the SN Ia ...

Searching for Barium Stars from the LAMOST Spectra Using the Machine-learning Method: I

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Barium stars are chemically peculiar stars that exhibit enhancement of s -process elements. Chemical abundance analysis of barium stars can provide crucial clues for the study of the chemical evolution of the Galaxy. The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber
