The Star Formation Law in Nearby Galaxies on Sub-Kpc Scales

open access: yes, 2008
(Abridged) We present a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between star formation rate surface density (SFR SD) and gas surface density (gas SD) at sub-kpc resolution in a sample of 18 nearby galaxies.

Estimation of Global Increase of Radiation Dose Rates During the Ground Level Enhancement on 11–12 November 2025 Using WASAVIES

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract WArning System for AVIation Exposure to Solar energetic particles (WASAVIES) is a physics‐based nowcasting system designed to support warning operations for aviation exposure to solar energetic particles (SEPs) by providing near‐real‐time global SEP dose‐rate estimates.

DESI EDR: Calibrating the Tully–Fisher Relationship with the DESI Peculiar Velocity Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We calibrate the Tully–Fisher relation (TFR) with data from the DESI Peculiar Velocity (PV) Survey taken during the Survey Validation (SV) period of the DESI galaxy redshift survey.

Winter‐active spiders (Clubiona) have a hyperactive antifreeze protein with a unique beta‐solenoid fold

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 8, Page 2270-2290, April 2026.
Antifreeze proteins from winter‐active spiders were purified using their affinity for ice. After LC–MSMS characterization, corresponding transcripts were identified. The antifreeze protein folds as a β‐solenoid with a large flat ice‐binding site on one surface and can bind to ice crystals and prevent their growth at −4 °C.

Modified Newtonian Dynamics: A Falsification of Cold Dark Matter

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2009
The only viable alternative to dark matter is one in which Newtonian dynamics or gravity breaks down in the limit of low accelerations, as in modified Newtonian dynamics (MONDs).

Automated Quantitative Description of Spiral Galaxy Arm-Segment Structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We describe a system for the automatic quantification of structure in spiral galaxies. This enables translation of sky survey images into data needed to help address fundamental astrophysical questions such as the origin of spiral structure---a ...

Epidemiology and Genetics of Rheumatic Diseases Suggest a Constant Rate of DNA Damage as Underlying Cause

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 177, Issue 4, Page 736-748, April 2026.
A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should

Magnetic-Field Vector Maps of Nearby Spiral Galaxies

open access: yesGalaxies, 2019
We present a method for determining the directions of magnetic-field vectors in a spiral galaxy using two synchrotron polarization maps, an optical image, and a velocity field.

Discovery of a very extended X-ray halo around a quiescent spiral galaxy - the "missing link" of galaxy formation

open access: yes, 2005
Hot gaseous haloes surrounding galaxies and extending well beyond the distribution of stars are a ubiquitous prediction of galaxy formation scenarios.

In perennial Arabis alpina, CONSTANS and FLOWERING LOCUS T have common and distinct effects on flowering and inflorescence architecture

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 970-987, April 2026.
Summary Flowering of perennial Arabis alpina is differentially regulated on primary and axillary shoots. Although contributions of vernalization and ageing pathways have been analysed, those of photoperiodic flowering genes CONSTANS (CO), FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), and TWIN‐SISTER OF FT (TSF) remain unexplored.
