Life-long sports engagement enhances adult erythrocyte adenylate energetics

Scientific Reports, 2021
Regular physical activity reduces age-related metabolic and functional decline. The energy stored in adenine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, and AMP) is essential to enable multiple vital functions of erythrocytes and body tissues.

Physical conditions in NGC 6543 [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
We observed NGC 6543 (the Cat's Eye Nebula) with the HST WFPC2 camera in ten narrow-band filters covering a range of emission lines. These images are used to further look at the physical conditions in NGC 6543. We discuss the [O III] electron temperature, ionization state throughout the nebula, and the results of photoionization models of individual ...
