Predicting the Yields of z > 6.5 Quasar Surveys in the Era of Roman and Rubin

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
About 70 luminous quasars discovered at z > 6.5 are strongly biased toward the bright end, thus not providing a comprehensive view of quasar abundance beyond the cosmic dawn. We present the predicted results of the Roman/Rubin high-redshift quasar survey,

Feasibility of a real-time dual energy markerless monitoring of lung tumors using a clinical room-mounted stereoscopic and monoscopic x-ray imaging system. [PDF]

open access: yesMed Phys
Abstract Background The motion of lung tumors during breathing poses challenges in stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), warranting improved monitoring techniques. Breathing complicates SBRT by creating positional uncertainty in the lungs, traditionally managed with PTV margins, respiratory gating, or breath hold, each with significant drawbacks ...

On the Formation of the First Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2017
AbstractObservations of the most luminous quasars at redshiftz> 6 reveal the existence of numerous supermasssive black holes (>199M⊙) already in place about 12 billion years ago. In addition, the interstellar medium of the galaxies hosting these black holes are observed to be chemically mature systems, with metallicities (Z> Z⊙) and dust ...

Volatile Fatty Acid Recovery from Arrested Anaerobic Digestion for the Production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel: A Review

open access: yesFermentation, 2023
The process of producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from organic waste involves the use of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as intermediates that are obtained via arrested anaerobic digestion (AAD) and VFA recovery.

Quasars Probing Quasars. II. The Anisotropic Clustering of Optically Thick Absorbers around Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
With close pairs of quasars at different redshifts, a background quasar sightline can be used to study a foreground quasar's environment in absorption. We used a sample of 17 Lyman limit systems with column density N_HI > 10^19 cm^-2 selected from 149 projected quasar pair sightlines, to investigate the clustering pattern of optically thick ...

Discovery of spectacular quasar-driven superbubbles in red quasars

open access: yesScience Advances, 2023
Quasar-driven outflows on galactic scales are a routinely invoked ingredient for galaxy formation models. We report the discovery of ionized gas nebulae surrounding three luminous red quasars at z ~ 0.4 from Gemini integral field unit observations.

A structure for quasars

open access: yesNew Astronomy Reviews, 2000
We propose a simple unifying structure for the inner regions of quasars and AGN. This empirically derived model links together the BALs, the narrow UV/X-ray ionized absorbers, the BELR, and the Compton scattering/fluorescing regions into a single structure. The model also suggests an origin for the large-scale bi-conical outflows.

AI-driven remote sensing enhances Mediterranean seagrass monitoring and conservation to combat climate change and anthropogenic impacts

open access: yesScientific Reports
Seagrasses are undergoing widespread loss due to anthropogenic pressure and climate change. Since 1960, the Mediterranean seascape lost 13–50% of the areal extent of its dominant and endemic seagrass-Posidonia oceanica, which regulates its ecosystem ...

MEASURING THE TIME DELAYS IN GRAVITATIONALLY LENSED QUASARS IN THE PRESENCE OF MICROLENSING

open access: yesRadio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2014
A method to measure the time delays in gravitationally lensed quasars is proposed, which provides a simple and transparent procedure to eliminate the effects of microlensing events.

Listerin Alleviates Alzheimer's Disease through IRE1‐mediated Decay of TLR4 mRNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is influenced by microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. Here, it is demonstrated that Listerin suppresses neuroinflammatory signaling and cognitive impairment in AD models by triggering IRE1α‐mediated TLR4 mRNA decay. Adenoviral Listerin delivery reduces amyloid‐β pathology, positioning it as a new therapeutic target.
