The nature of B supergiants: clues from a steep drop in rotation rates at 22000 K. The possibility of Bi-stability braking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The location of B supergiants in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD) represents a long-standing problem in massive star evolution. Here we propose their nature may be revealed utilising their rotational properties, and we highlight a steep drop in ...

Influence of Takeoff and Landing Displacement Strategies on Standing Long Jump Performance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Strength and Conditioning, 2022
We evaluated the influence of takeoff and landing distance contributions to measured jump distance during the standing long jump (SLJ). Twenty male soccer players performed three SLJs while ground reaction force data (GRF) were obtained.

The limit distribution of the maximum increment of a random walk with regularly varying jump size distribution

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper, we deal with the asymptotic distribution of the maximum increment of a random walk with a regularly varying jump size distribution. This problem is motivated by a long-standing problem on change point detection for epidemic alternatives ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
