M-dwarf stellar winds : the effects of realistic magnetic geometry on rotational evolution and planets

open access: yes, 2014
AAV acknowledges support from a Royal Astronomical Society Fellowship. JM acknowledges support from a fellowship of the Alexander von Humboldt foundation.We perform three-dimensional numerical simulations of stellar winds of early-M-dwarf stars.

The Average Stellar Population Age and Metallicity of Intermediate-redshift Quiescent Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The HectoMAP spectroscopic survey provides a unique mass-limited sample of more than 35,000 quiescent galaxies ( D _n 4000 > 1.5) covering the redshift range 0.2  10 ^11 M _⊙ ) assemble the bulk of their stars at earlier epochs.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Modelling galaxy stellar mass evolution from z similar to 0.8 to today

open access: yes, 2010
We apply the empirical method built for redshift z = 0 in the previous work of Wang et al. to a higher redshift, to link galaxy stellar mass directly with its hosting dark matter halo mass at a redshift of around 0.8.

Stellar masses of SDSS-III BOSS galaxies at z~0.5 and constraints to galaxy formation models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We calculate stellar masses for ∼400 000 massive luminous galaxies at redshift ∼0.2–0.7 using the first two years of data from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS).

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Stellar and total mass in early-type lensing galaxies

open access: yes, 2005
For 18 well-observed gravitationally lensed QSOs, we compare new nonparametric mass profiles for the lensing galaxies with stellar population models derived from published Hubble Space Telescope photometry.

Stellar Mass Calibrations for Local Low-mass Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The stellar masses of galaxies are measured from integrated light via several methods—however, few of these methods were designed for low-mass ( M _⋆ ≲ 10 ^8 M _⊙ ) “dwarf” galaxies, whose properties (e.g., stochastic star formation, low metallicity ...

Benchmarking pre-main sequence stellar evolutionary tracks using disk-based dynamical stellar masses

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Stellar masses are a fundamental property to understand models of pre-main sequence evolution, but their values derived from Hertzsprung–Russell (HR) diagrams are strongly model dependent.
