Lithium in red giants: the roles of the He-core flash and the luminosity bump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Lithium abundances for red giants in the GALAH DR3 survey are studied. The rare examples of Li-enriched stars with abundances A(Li) $\geq 1.5$ are confirmed to be He-core burning stars belonging to or evolved from the red clump with similar masses and metallicity: $M\simeq 1.1\pm0.2{\rm M_\odot}$ and [Fe/H] $\simeq-0.3\pm0.3$. Li enrichment over the Li

Gene expressions between obligate bamboo-eating pandas and non-herbivorous mammals reveal converged specialized bamboo diet adaptation

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background It is inevitable to change the function or expression of genes during the environmental adaption of species. Both the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) and red panda (Ailurus fulgens) belong to Carnivora and have developed similar ...

Red giants rotational splittings [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The space missions CoRoT and Kepler provide high quality data that allow to test the transport of angular momentum in stars by the seismic determination of the internal rotation profile. Our aim is to test the validity of the seismic diagnostics for red giant rotation that are based on a perturbative method and to investigate the oscillation spectra ...

Red Giant Branch stars: the theoretical framework [PDF]

open access: yesPubl.Astron.Soc.Pac. 114 (2002) 375, 2002
Theoretical predictions of Red Giant Branch stars' effective temperatures, colors, luminosities and surface chemical abundances are a necessary tool for the astrophysical interpretation of the visible--near infrared integrated light from unresolved stellar populations, the Color-Magnitude-Diagrams of resolved stellar clusters and galaxies, and ...

Drivers of the Abundance of Tridacna spp. Giant Clams in the Red Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Giant clams (Subfamily Tridacninae), are important members of Indo-Pacific coral reefs, playing multiple roles in the framework of these communities. Although they are prominent species in Red Sea reefs, data on their distribution and densities in the ...

Dynamical Substructures of Galactic Globular Clusters I. M5 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2004
CCD images to study the dynamical substructure of the globular cluster M5. We investigate the radial variation of ellipticities and position angles using the stellar photometry and the IRAF ellipse task.

Measuring the core rotation of red giant stars [PDF]

open access: yesEAS Publications Series, Volume 82, 2019, pp.225-232, 2016
Red giant stars present mixed modes, which behave as pressure modes in the convective envelope and as gravity modes in the radiative interior. This mixed character allows to probe the physical conditions in their core. With the advent of long-duration time series from space-borne missions such as CoRoT and Kepler, it becomes possible to study the red ...

Prevalence of the giant liver fluke (fascioloides magna, bassi, 1875) in red deer (cervus elaphus) in the region of floodplain forests of northern Serbia

open access: yesArchives of Veterinary Medicine, 2018
This is the first study offering insights into the prevalence of giant liver fluke in the population of red deer in the territory of Serbia. Giang liver fluke (Fascioloides magna, Bassi, 1875) is the most important liver parasite among wild ruminants in ...

Comparative transcriptome and methylome of polar bears, giant and red pandas reveal diet‐driven adaptive evolution

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
Epigenetic regulation plays an important role in the evolution of species adaptations, yet little information is available on the epigenetic mechanisms underlying the adaptive evolution of bamboo‐eating in both giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) and ...
