Better age estimations using UV-optical colours: breaking the age-metallicity degeneracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We demonstrate that the combination of GALEX UV photometry in the FUV (~1530 angstroms) and NUV (~2310 angstroms) passbands with optical photometry in the standard U,B,V,R,I filters can efficiently break the age-metallicity degeneracy.

Hidden No More: Spotlight on Tidal Disruption Events in Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered in previously quiescent galaxies. However, earlier studies have revealed a handful of TDEs occurring in pre‐existing active galactic nuclei (AGN). We discuss AT2019aalc, a promising TDE candidate in an AGN, and compare it to similar sources.

A Cubesat Payload for Exoplanet Detection

open access: yesSensors, 2017
The search for undiscovered planets outside the solar system is a scientific topic that is rapidly spreading into the astrophysical and engineering communities. In this framework, the design of an innovative payload to detect exoplanets from a nano-sized

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

An Optimized Colorimetric Readout Method for Lateral Flow Immunoassays

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Despite its broad penetration of various markets, the quantitative lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) suffers from sensitivity issues in some cases. To solve this problem, an optimized colorimetric readout method for LFIA quantification is proposed in this ...

The New Eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable SDSS 154453+2553

open access: yes, 2011
The cataclysmic variable SDSS154453+2553 was recently identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We obtained spectra and photometry at the MDM Observatory, which revealed an eclipse with a 6.03 hour period.

Neue Versuche mit Spiropyran: Photometrie, NMR‐Spektroskopie und On‐Water‐Synthese

open access: yesCHEMKON, EarlyView.
Reaktionskinetik wird häufig als schwierig, theoretisch und Mathematik‐lastig empfunden, weshalb experimentelle Zugänge für diesem Themenbereich notwendig sind. In diesem Beitrag werden entsprechende Versuche zur Reaktionskinetik vorgestellt, bei denen das Farbstoffsystem eines Spiropyrans und dessen isomerer Merocyanin‐Form untersucht wird.

The Mid-Infrared Tully-Fisher Relation: Calibration of the SNIa Scale and Ho

open access: yes, 2012
This paper builds on a calibration of the SNIa absolute distance scale begun with a core of distances based on the correlation between galaxy rotation rates and optical Ic band photometry.

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...
