New and updated stellar parameters for 90 transit hosts. The effect of the surface gravity

open access: yes, 2013
Context. Precise stellar parameters are crucial in exoplanet research for correctly determining of the planetary parameters. For stars hosting a transiting planet, determining of the planetary mass and radius depends on the stellar mass and radius, which

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Stellar abundances from line statistics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1980
The method of linear statistical modeling has been combined with a rudimentary model of stellar photospheres to obtain abundance estimates for a large member of ''normal'' and peculiar, upper main sequence stars. The adopted standard abundances, obtained from published fine analyses, can be fitted by our algorithms with about 0.5 dex as the standard ...

Determining Stellar Elemental Abundances from DESI Spectra with the Data-driven Payne

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Stellar abundances for a large number of stars provide key information for the study of Galactic formation history. Large spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and LAMOST take median-to-low-resolution ( R ≲ 5000 ...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Barium Abundances from the LAMOST Medium-Resolution Survey Stellar Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Based on a template-matching method, we estimate the barium (Ba) abundances for stellar spectra from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) Medium-Resolution Spectroscopic Survey (MRS).

Atomic Diffusion and Mixing in Old Stars V: A deeper look into the Globular Cluster NGC 6752 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Abundance trends in heavier elements with evolutionary phase have been shown to exist in the globular cluster NGC 6752 [Fe/H]=-1.6. These trends are a result of atomic diffusion and additional (non-convective) mixing.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Li-rich Giants Identified from LAMOST DR8 Low-resolution Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
A small fraction of giants possess photospheric lithium (Li) abundance higher than the value predicted by the standard stellar evolution models, and the detailed mechanisms of Li enhancement are complicated and lack a definite conclusion.
