Lessons from HAWC pulsar wind nebulae observations: The diffusion constant is not a constant; pulsars remain the likeliest sources of the anomalous positron fraction; cosmic rays are trapped for long periods of time in pockets of inefficient diffusion [PDF]
Author(s): Profumo, Stefano; Reynoso-Cordova, Javier; Kaaz, Nicholas; Silverman, Maya | Abstract: Recent TeV observations of nearby pulsars with the HAWC telescope have been interpreted as evidence that the diffusion of high-energy electrons and ...

ABSTRACT Background Thermoregulation is critical for preventing hyperthermia during physical activity. In Huntington's disease (HD), research on possible thermoregulatory alterations has received little attention. Objectives We aimed to investigate and compare skin temperature differences before and after exercise between HD patients and healthy ...

We detected X-ray emission from the 50-kyr-old pulsar J1809-1917 and resolved its pulsar wind nebula (PWN) with Chandra. The pulsar spectrum fits PL+BB model with the photon index of 1.2 and the BB temperature of 2 MK for n_{H}=0.7\times 10^{22} cm^{-2}.

Recent Advancements in the Treatment of Age‐Related Macular Degeneration
ABSTRACT Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is a prevalent cause of visual impairment and blindness among the elderly. AMD can be categorized into two subtypes: “wet” and “dry.” Current treatments for wet AMD mainly involve anti‐vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs, and there are three U.S.

Pulsar Searches with the SKA [PDF]
The Square Kilometre Array will be an amazing instrument for pulsar astronomy. While the full SKA will be sensitive enough to detect all pulsars in the Galaxy visible from Earth, already with SKA1, pulsar searches will discover enough pulsars to increase

Pulsar-candidate Selection Using a Generative Adversarial Network and ResNeXt
Pulsar research has been a hot topic in the area of astronomy since they were first discovered. Pulsar discovery is fundamental for pulsar research. While pulsars are now visible across the electromagnetic spectrum, pulsar searches with modern radio ...

Deriving birth timing of roe deer fawns from body measurements to limit mowing mortality
Every spring, hiding roe deer fawns Capreolus capreolus in meadows are injured or killed by mowing activities. To assess the temporal overlap between mowing activities and the fawning period, and thus help reduce the risk of mowing death, we have determined the average parturition date in three regions of Bavaria, southern Germany.

Selection of radio pulsar candidates using artificial neural networks
Radio pulsar surveys are producing many more pulsar candidates than can be inspected by human experts in a practical length of time. Here we present a technique to automatically identify credible pulsar candidates from pulsar surveys using an artificial ...

The population of TeV pulsar wind nebulae in the H.E.S.S. Galactic Plane Survey [PDF]
The nine-year H.E.S.S. Galactic Plane Survey (HGPS) yielded the most uniform observation scan of the inner Milky Way in the TeV gamma-ray band to date.
