Decreased Frequency of Strong Bars in S0 Galaxies: Evidence for Secular Evolution?
Using data from the Near-Infrared S0 Survey (NIRS0S) of nearby, early-type galaxies, we examine the distribution of bar strengths in S0 galaxies as compared to S0/a and Sa galaxies, and as compared to previously published bar strength data for Ohio State

Transcriptomic analyses reveal an age‐related decline in autophagy pathways in RPE/choroid. These pathways remain unchanged in early AMD but become bidirectionally dysregulated in later stages, along with increased RPE loss. Pre‐treatment with trehalose eyedrops enhances RPE autophagy flux and prevents light‐induced outer retinal degeneration in mice ...

Stellar Populations in Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
We report preliminary results of the characterization of bulge and inner disk stellar populations for 8 nearby spiral galaxies using Gemini/GMOS. The long-slit spectra extend out to 1-2 disk scale lengths with S/N/Ang > 50. Two different model fitting techniques, absorption-line indices and full spectral synthesis, are found to weigh age ...

Magnetic-Field Vector Maps of Nearby Spiral Galaxies
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.

Photometry and kinematics of extragalactic star-forming complexes
We investigate spectral and photometric properties of extragalactic star-forming complexes (SFCs). The SFCs were selected in 17 nearby galaxies of a spiral or irregular type, having inclinations less than 45° and distances less than 15 Mpc.

Color Differences between Clockwise and Counterclockwise Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
While spiral galaxies observed from Earth clearly seem to spin in different directions, little is yet known about other differences between galaxies that spin clockwise and galaxies that spin counterclockwise. Here we compared the color of 64,399 spiral galaxies that spin clockwise to 63,215 spiral galaxies that spin counterclockwise.

Why are classical bulges more common in S0 galaxies than in spiral galaxies? [PDF]
In this paper, we try to understand why the classical bulge fraction observed in S0 galaxies is significantly higher than that in spiral galaxies. We carry out a comparative study of the bulge and global properties of a sample of spiral and S0 galaxies in a fixed environment.

The possible evolution of pitch angles of spiral galaxies [PDF]
The origin and maintenance of spiral structure in galaxies, the correlation between different types of spiral structure and several proposed mechanisms for their generation, and the evolution of spiral arms of galaxies with time are questions that are still controversial.

Multi‐Modal Instrument Performances (MMIP): A Musical Database
Abstract Musical instrument performances are multimodal creative art forms that integrate audiovisual elements, resulting from musicians' interactions with instruments through body movements, finger actions, and facial expressions. Digitizing such performances for archiving, streaming, analysis, or synthesis requires capturing every element that shapes
