The mass spectrum of compact remnants from the parsec stellar evolution tracks [PDF]
, 2015 The mass spectrum of stellar-mass black holes (BHs) is highly uncertain. Dynamical mass measurements are available only for few ( 10) BHs in X-ray binaries, while theoretical models strongly depend on the hydrodynamics of supernova (SN) explosions and on

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The glacier ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus survives year‐round at 0 °C. Its ATP6 subunit, which forms a regulatory component of the proton pore in mitochondrial ATP synthase, has a carboxy‐terminal extension not found in any other organism examined to date. Here, we show that fusion of this extension to the homologous AtpB protein in E. coli results

A Model for Eruptive Mass Loss in Massive Stars
The Astrophysical JournalEruptive mass loss in massive stars is known to occur, but the mechanism(s) are not yet well understood. One proposed physical explanation appeals to opacity-driven super-Eddington luminosities in stellar envelopes.

Stellar Yields and Chemical Evolution [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2002 Several speakers at this symposium have alluded to the zeroth-order agreement between the Type II supernovae (SNe) stellar yields, as predicted by the models of those most responsible for driving progress in the field - i.e. Arnett (1991,1996); Maeder (1992); Woosley & Weaver (1995); Langer & Henkel (1995); Thielemann et al.

Seismic indices -- a deep look inside evolved stars [PDF]
, 2015 Independent of stellar modelling, global seismic parameters of red giants provide unique information on the individual stellar properties as well as on stellar evolution. They allow us to measure key stellar parameters, such as the stellar mass and radius, or to derive the distance of field stars.

OLDER AND COLDER: THE IMPACT OF STARSPOTS ON PRE-MAIN-SEQUENCE STELLAR EVOLUTION [PDF]
, 2015 We assess the impact of starspots on the evolution of late-type stars during the pre-main sequence (pre-MS) using a modified stellar evolution code. We find that heavily spotted models of mass 0.1–1.2 M⊙ are inflated by up to 10% during the pre-MS, and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

The True Nature of the Brightest Local Triple Stellar Candidates within 100 pc in the Galaxy
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present a study of a sample of bright ( V ≤ 10 mag) and close ( d ≤ 100 pc) triple–stellar system candidates in the galaxy, consisting of eight systems in total.

The evolution of the solar–stellar activity [PDF]
Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2020 We present a brief review of observational results contributing to modern ideas on the evolution of stellar activity. Basic laws, derived for both rotation-age and activity-rotation relationships, allow us to trace how the activity of low-mass stars changes with age during their stay on the main sequence.

Protoplanetary disk lifetimes vs stellar mass and possible implications for giant planet populations
, 2015 We study the dependence of protoplanetary disk evolution on stellar mass using a large sample of young stellar objects in nearby young star-forming regions. We update the protoplanetary disk fractions presented in our recent work (paper I of this series)
