Mechanism of the chromosome-induced polar body extrusion in mouse eggs

open access: yesCell Division, 2011
Background An oocyte undergoes two rounds of asymmetric division to generate a haploid gamete and two small polar bodies designed for apoptosis. Chromosomes play important roles in specifying the asymmetric meiotic divisions in the oocytes but the ...

Polar observations of electron density distribution in the Earth’s magnetosphere. 1. Statistical results [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2002
Forty-five months of continuous spacecraft potential measurements from the Polar satellite are used to study the average electron density in the magnetosphere and its dependence on geomagnetic activity and season.

Initial results from Soviet unmanned magnetometer network in Antarctica

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1986
During the last decade the unmanned magnetometer network across the southern polar cap along geomagnetic meridian 110°between corrected geomagnetic latitudes -75 and -89°has been successfully operated.

Polarized QED cascades over pulsar polar caps

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT The formation of e± plasmas within pulsar magnetospheres through quantum electrodynamics (QED) cascades in vacuum gaps is widely acknowledged. This paper aims to investigate the effect of photon polarization during the QED cascade occurring over the polar cap of a pulsar.

A statistical study of polar cap flow channels observed in both hemispheres using SuperDARN radars

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2022
This paper details the first large-scale, interhemispheric statistical study into ionospheric fast flow (>900 m/s) channels in the polar cap using the SuperDARN radar network.

Martian north polar cap summer water cycle

open access: yes, 2016
A key outstanding question in Martian science is 'are the polar caps gaining or losing mass and what are the implications for past, current and future climate?' To address this question, we use observations from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging ...

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Polar observations of electron density distribution in the Earth’s magnetosphere. 2. Density profiles [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2002
Using spacecraft potential measurements of the Polar electric field experiment, we investigate electron density variations of key plasma regions within the magnetosphere, including the polar cap, cusp, trough, plasmapause, and auroral zone.

Dead zone in the polar-cap accelerator of pulsars

open access: yes, 2012
We study plasma flows above pulsar polar caps using time-dependent simulations of plasma particles in the self-consistent electric field. The flow behavior is controlled by the dimensionless parameter alpha=(j/c rho_GJ) where j is the electric current ...

Magnetospheric polar cap

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985
Mount Denali (McKinley), the Alaska Range, and countless glaciers welcomed all 86 participants of the Chapman Conference on the Magnetospheric Polar Cap, which was held on the University of Alaska, Fairbanks campus (UAF), on August 6–9, 1984. The magnetospheric polar cap is the highest latitude region of the earth which is surrounded by the ring of ...
