Assembling Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
Nearby spiral galaxies offer vital clues to some of the most fundamental questions about galaxy formation and evolution: What is the star formation history of the universe, past and future? When did disks form, during the final stages of a single primeval collapse, or as a continuous or episodic process?

Microfluidic Engineering of Chitosan‐Coated Nanoemulsions for Controlled Release and Stability in Space Pharmaceutics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Microfluidic engineering enables the fabrication of chitosan‐coated, melatonin‐loaded nanoemulsions with controlled release and enhanced physicochemical stability for space pharmaceutics. Interfacial biopolymer coating modulates droplet behavior under accelerated thermal stress and simulated microgravity.

Star Formation and Magnetic Field Amplification due to Galactic Spirals

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We use global MHD galaxy simulations to investigate the effects of spiral arms on the evolution of magnetic fields and star formation within a self-regulated interstellar medium.

Optical observations of the nearby galaxy IC342 with narrow band [SII] and Hα filters. I [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2013
We present observations of a portion of the nearby spiral galaxy IC342 using narrow band [SII] and Hα filters. These observations were carried out in November 2011 with the 2m RCC telescope at Rozhen National Astronomical Observatory in Bulgaria.

Probing isotopic ratios at z = 0.89: molecular line absorption in front of the quasar PKS 1830-211

open access: yes, 2006
With the Plateau de Bure interferometer, we have measured the C, N, O and S isotopic abundance ratios in the arm of a spiral galaxy with a redshift of 0.89. The galaxy is seen face-on according to HST images. Its bulge intercepts the line of sight to the

Rotation Curves of 967 Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1995
We present the rotation curves (RCs) of 967 spiral galaxies, obtained by folding and deprojecting the raw optical data by Mathewson et al. (1992). Out of these, we have identified 80 excellent RCs and 820 fair RCs. The 80 excellent RCs are smooth, symmetric, have negligible rms internal error, extend to at least the optical radius, and have high and ...

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

A New Statistical Analysis of the Morphology of Spiral Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Morphology is the starting point for understanding galaxies. Elmegreen et al. classified spiral galaxies into flocculent, multiple-arm, and grand-design galaxies based on the regularity of their spiral arm structure.

Mass extinction and the structure of the milky way [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2013
We use the most up-to-date Milky Way model and solar orbit data in order to test the hypothesis that the Sun's galactic spiral arm crossings cause mass extinction events on Earth. To do this, we created a new model of the Milky Way's spiral arms
