A New Method for the Asteroseismic Determination of the Evolutionary State of Red-Giant Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Determining the ages of red-giant stars is a key problem in stellar astrophysics. One of the difficulties in this determination is to know the evolutionary state of the individual stars -- i.e. have they started to burn Helium in their cores? That is the

Lithium abundance in lower red giant branch stars of Omega Centauri [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
We present Li, Na, Al, and Fe abundances of 199 lower red giant branch star members of the stellar system Omega Centauri, using high-resolution spectra acquired with FLAMES at the Very Large Telescope. The A(Li) distribution is peaked at A(Li) ∼ 1 dex with a prominent tail towards lower values.

Constructing a cave sediment stratigraphy for the Dachstein Massif sheds light on landscape evolution (Eastern Alps)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Five large Alpine cave systems on the Dachstein (Austria) were investigated and 35 sediment profiles or outcrops between 860 m a.s.l. and 1945 m a.s.l. were analysed. An altitude‐dependent overall stratigraphy is established and depositional conditions and palaeo‐environments are reconstructed.

Revealing the Fate of Exoplanet Systems: Asteroseismic Identification of Host Star in the Red Clump or Red Giant Branch

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Determining the evolutionary stage of stars is crucial for understanding the evolution of exoplanetary systems. In this context, red giant branch (RGB) and red clump (RC) stars, which formed at stages in the later evolution of stars situated before and ...

A sequence of nitrogen-rich very red giants in the globular cluster NGC 1851

open access: yes, 2014
We present the abundances of N in a sample of 62 stars on the red giant branch (RGB) in the peculiar globular cluster NGC 1851. The values of [N/Fe] ratio were obtained by comparing the flux measured in the observed spectra with that from synthetic ...

Dynamic expression of lamin B1 during adult neurogenesis in the vertebrate brain

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In mammals, specific brain regions such as the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles harbor adult neural stem/progenitor cells (ANSPCs) that give rise to new neurons and contribute to structural and functional brain plasticity.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Post-AGB Binaries as Interacting Systems

open access: yesGalaxies
We present recent progress in our understanding of the physical interaction mechanisms at work in evolved binaries of low-to-intermediate initial mass, which are surrounded by a stable disc of gas and dust.

HiFi based metagenomic assembly strategy provides accuracy near isolated genome resolution in MAG assembly

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Recovering high‐contiguity, circular bacterial genomes from complex microbiomes (e.g., gut) is challenged by limitations of short‐read and error‐prone long‐read sequencing. This study comprehensively compares PacBio High‐Fidelity (HiFi) sequencing‐based metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) against Illumina MAGs, Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MAGs ...
