Correction of UBV Photometry for Emission Lines
We investigate the effect on U,B,V magnitudes of the removal of emission lines from the spectra of some symbiotic stars and novae during their nebular phases.

Color Transformations for the 2MASS Second Incremental Data Release [PDF]
Transformation equations are presented to convert colors and magnitudes measured in the AAO, ARNICA, CIT, DENIS, ESO, LCO (Persson standards), MSSSO, SAAO, and UKIRT photometric systems to the photometric system inherent to the 2MASS Second Incremental ...

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Event-Based, 6-DOF Camera Tracking from Photometric Depth Maps [PDF]
Event cameras are bio-inspired vision sensors that output pixel-level brightness changes instead of standard intensity frames. These cameras do not suffer from motion blur and have a very high dynamic range, which enables them to provide reliable visual ...

Fatigue‐Resistant Mechanoresponsive Color‐Changing Hydrogels for Vision‐Based Tactile Robots
Mechanoresponsive color‐changing materials that can reversibly and resiliently change color in response to stress are highly desirable for diverse technologies in optics, sensors, and robots; however, such materials are rarely achieved. This work reports a fatigue‐resistant mechanoresponsive color‐changing hydrogel that exhibits reversible, resilient ...

The Diverse Modes of Oxygen Reactivity in Life & Chemistry
Breath of life: Oxygen is the quintessential molecule of life on our planet. Three molecular oxygen species dominate natural and artificial oxygenation reactions: the singlet and triplet spin states of dioxygen and ozone. This Review summarizes key applications of these molecular oxygen species in biology, medicine, technologies, and laboratories ...

I have investigated the value of the contribution of small telescopes to the success of a whole WET run. To this end, I have applied different data weighting schemes to two extreme WET test data sets. I find that weights proportional to the inverse local

Parameterization of long-period eclipsing binaries
One of the important sources for independent determination of stellar masses is eclipsing binaries with components on the main sequence, and with observable spectral lines of both components.

Calibrated griz magnitudes of Tycho stars: All-sky photometric calibration using bright stars [PDF]
Photometric calibration to 5% accuracy is frequently needed at arbitrary celestial locations; however, existing all-sky astronomical catalogs do not reach this accuracy and time consuming photometric calibration procedures are required.

Convergence drawing is used to create flexible, microscale, multifunctional fiber‐based neural probes. Optimized materials selection enables individual devices to perform neural recording, electrical stimulation, optogenetics, fiber photometry, fluid delivery, and voltammetric neurotransmitter detection in rodents.
