Investigation of Alpha-Proton Drift Speeds in the Solar Wind: WIND and HELIOS Observations
Universe, 2022 In this paper, we present an analysis of how alpha–proton drift speeds (the difference between the magnitudes of alpha and bulk proton speeds) are constrained in the inner heliosphere using observations from the WIND and twin HELIOS spacecraft. The solar

Frontiers in Bioscience-Scholar, 2022 While the primary purpose of radiotherapy (RT) is the elimination of cancer cells by inducing DNA-damage, considerable evidence emerges that anti-neoplastic effects extend beyond mere tumor cell killing. These secondary effects are based on activation of

Energy Dynamics in the Brain: Contributions of Astrocytes to Metabolism and pH Homeostasis
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Regulation of metabolism is complex and involves enzymes and membrane transporters, which form networks to support energy dynamics. Lactate, as a metabolic intermediate from glucose or glycogen breakdown, appears to play a major role as additional ...

Study of light ions acceleration in a diode with a solid target and registration of nuclear proton-boron reaction products generated in the plasma diode [PDF]
Ядерна фізика та енергетикаThe results of proton fluxes registration and the nuclear reactions (p + 11B > 3α) they induce on boron-containing targets in a plasma diode pinch, generated by irradiation of the anode target with a relativistic electron beam, are presented.

Water, Protons, and the Gating of Voltage-Gated Potassium Channels
MembranesIon channels are ubiquitous throughout all forms of life. Potassium channels are even found in viruses. Every cell must communicate with its surroundings, so all cells have them, and excitable cells, in particular, especially nerve cells, depend on the ...

The pick-up of cometary protons by the solar wind [PDF]
, 1987 The High Energy Range Spectrometer (HERS) of the Ion Mass Spectrometer on the Giotto spacecraft measured the 3-dimensional distribution of picked-up cometary protons over a distance of approximately 8 million km upstream of the bow shock of Comet Halley.
