Toward a consistent use of overshooting parametrizations in 1D stellar evolution codes [PDF]
, 2015 Several parametrizations for overshooting in 1D stellar evolution calculations coexist in the literature. These parametrizations are used somewhat arbitrarily in stellar evolution codes, based on what works best for a given problem, or even for ...

Characteristics of the Kelch domain containing (KLHDC) subfamily and relationships with diseases
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Kelch protein superfamily includes 63 members, with the KLHDC subfamily having 10 proteins. While their functions are not fully understood, recent advances in KLHDC2's structure and role in protein degradation have highlighted its potential for drug development, especially in PROTAC therapies.

TESS Asteroseismology of β Hydri: A Subgiant with a Born-again Dynamo
The Astrophysical JournalThe solar-type subgiant β Hyi has long been studied as an old analog of the Sun. Although the rotation period has never been measured directly, it was estimated to be near 27 days.

The evolution of CNO isotopes: a new window on cosmic star formation history and the stellar IMF in the age of ALMA [PDF]
, 2017 We use state-of-the-art chemical models to track the cosmic evolution of the CNO isotopes in the interstellar medium of galaxies, yielding powerful constraints on their stellar initial mass function (IMF). We re-assess the relative roles of massive stars,

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...

Constraints on the Formation of M31’s Stellar Halo from the SPLASH Survey
Galaxies, 2017 The SPLASH (Spectroscopic and Photometric Landscape of Andromeda’s Stellar Halo) Survey has observed fields throughout M31’s stellar halo, dwarf satellites, and stellar disk.

PROBING FINAL STAGES OF STELLAR EVOLUTION WITH X-RAY OBSERVATIONS OF SN 2013ej [PDF]
, 2015 Massive stars shape their surroundings with mass loss from winds during their lifetimes. Fast ejecta from supernovae (SNe), from these massive stars, shock this circumstellar medium. Emission generated by this interaction provides a window into the final

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Modelling transport processes in stellar radiative interiors
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 I report here on the different transport processes redistributing angular momentum and nuclides in stellar radiative interiors and on their modelling in stellar evolution codes.
