The construction of colorimetry by committee [PDF]
This paper explores the confrontation of physical and contextual factors involved in the emergence of the subject of color measurement, which stabilized in essentially its present form during the interwar period. The contentions surrounding the specialty

The Slow‐Rotating Nucleus of Comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy)
ABSTRACT The close approach of comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy) allowed us to conduct an in‐depth study of the morphology of the inner coma. From the measurement of the dust emission structures expanding near the cometary nucleus in November–December 2013, we derived a slow rotation period of 47.8±1.2$$ 47.8\pm 1.2 $$ h.

Optical photometry of the UCM lists I and II [PDF]
We present Johnson B surface photometry for the UCM Survey galaxies. One-dimensional bulge-disk decomposition is attempted, discussing on fitting functions and computational procedures. The results from this decomposition, jointly with concentration indices and an asymmetry coefficient, are employed to study the morphological properties of these ...

ABSTRACT Recombinant adeno‐associated virus (rAAV) has emerged as an attractive gene delivery vector platform to treat both rare and pervasive diseases. With more and more rAAV‐based therapies entering late‐stage clinical trials and commercialization, there is an increasing pressure on the rAAV manufacturing process to accelerate drug development ...

Unlocking the secrets of stellar haloes using combined star counts and surface photometry [PDF]
The stellar haloes of galaxies can currently be studied either through observations of resolved halo stars or through surface photometry. Curiously, the two methods appear to give conflicting results, as a number of surface photometry measurements have revealed integrated colours that are too red to be reconciled with the halo properties inferred from ...

bRing: An observatory dedicated to monitoring the $\beta$ Pictoris b Hill sphere transit [PDF]
Aims. We describe the design and first light observations from the $\beta$ Pictoris b Ring ("bRing") project. The primary goal is to detect photometric variability from the young star $\beta$ Pictoris due to circumplanetary material surrounding the ...

This review explores current methods for detecting and characterising small tau aggregates, which are increasingly recognised as key drivers of neurotoxicity in tauopathies. It discusses emerging techniques such as single‐molecule pull‐down (SiMPull), single‐molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET), and cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET ...
