An infrared census of dust in nearby galaxies with Spitxer (Dustings). II. Discovery of metal-poor dusty AGB stars [PDF]
The DUSTiNGS survey (DUST in Nearby Galaxies with Spitzer) is a 3.6 and 4.5 µm imaging survey of 50 nearby dwarf galaxies designed to identify dust-producing asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and massive stars.

Eukaryovorous Predation in Evolutionarily Significant Excavate‐Like Flagellates
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the Last Eukaryotic Common Ancestor (LECA) resembled contemporary excavates, a non‐monophyletic group of deep branching flagellates. Here we explore the functional ecology of distantly related deep‐branching “excavate‐like” flagellates (in Alveolata and Provora) that share with many excavates a vane‐bearing ...

Context. The asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase of evolution in low- and intermediate-mass stars is governed by poorly understood physical mechanisms, such as convection, mixing, dust production and mass loss, which play a crucial role in determining ...

Closing the Loop: Italian Waste Biomass as a Sustainable Source for Sodium‐Ion Battery Anodes
Research into sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) is of paramount importance for developing a sustainable energy system in the EU. SIBs offer a cheaper alternative to lithium‐ion batteries that rely on graphite by using waste biomass, which is usually discarded, to prepare hard carbons that can be used as an anode material.

Models of AGB Stars and their Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
The occurrence of recursive thermonuclear runaways makes the computation of AGB evolutionary sequences and the related nucleosynthesis a challenging task for stellar modelers.

In this study we show how, in natural forests, tree heights adapt across environmental gradients as a response to environmental and biotic factors. Awareness of such local adaptations can be encoded into predictive features and leveraged by shallow learning methods to enhance predictions of tree diameter and tree‐level aboveground biomass.

Systemic Consequences of Chronic Ethanol Intake: From Microbiome Shifts to Metabolic Impairment
Chronic ethanol intake disrupts whole‐body homeostasis by reducing energy intake and body mass, impairing physical function, and reshaping the gut microbiome. Microbiota shifts and depletion of short‐chain fatty acids increase gut permeability and drive hepatic inflammation, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance.

Technetium in Galactic Bulge AGB Stars
Technetium has been of high interest in AGB studies for many decades due to its radioactive nature. Here we report on observations of technetium in galactic bulge AGB variables. ..
