Isochrones for late-type stars [PDF]
AbstractA brief summary of the history of stellar evolution theory and the use of isochrones is given. The present state of the subject is summarized. The major uncertainties in isochrone construction are considered: chemical abundances and color calibrations, and the treatment of turbulent convection in stellar interior and atmosphere models.

SPECTROSCOPIC ORBITS FOR 15 LATE-TYPE STARS
ABSTRACT Spectroscopic orbital elements are determined for 15 stars with periods from 8 to 6528 days with six orbits computed for the first time. Improved astrometric orbits are computed for two stars and one new orbit is derived. Visual orbits were previously determined for four stars, four stars are members of multiple systems, and ...

Differential Line Shifts in Late Type Stars [PDF]
AbstractThe differential line shifts method for studying convective type motions has been described in the review of Glebocki and Stawikowski at this colloquium. Here the results of differential line shifts for twenty late type stars are presented. Line shifts were determined either from published wavelength measurements (α CMi, β Peg, α Boo, α Ser, α ...

Flares in late-type stars: X-ray [PDF]
Flare-like brightenings, similar to those observed on the Sun but on a larger energy scale, are observed in a variety of late-type stars, including classical M dwarf flare stars, RS CVn-type binaries and pre-main sequence (PMS) objects. These events, which are observable over the whole electromagnetic spectrum, are interpreted as due to rapid release ...

On Technetium Abundance in Late-type Stars [PDF]
Technetium abundances in the atmospheres of S- and C-stars are estimated by comparing the synthetic spectra and high dispersion observed spectra for the TcI λ 5924.47 region. It was found that reliable estimates are possible only for the pure S-stars and SC-stars. For the late carbon stars only the upper limit of the Tc abundance can be found.

Magnetic fields in late-type stars [PDF]
Observations show that magnetic activity in late-type stars is correlated with rotation rates and that there is a discontinuous change in behavior at a critical rotation period. This can be explained as a consequence of a transition from convection in rolls parallel to the rotation axis to normal convection cells as the angular velocity is decreased.

ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Quiescent Microwave Emission from Late-Type Stars [PDF]
AbstractA diversity of stellar classes has been detected to be prolific sources of low-level, “quiescent” microwave radiation. This emission is, in most cases, attributed to the persistent presence of mildly relativistic electrons in the coronae. Frequent or continuous particle acceleration is required to maintain a high level of gyrosynchrotron ...

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.
