Geometrical beaming of stellar mass ULXs [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2016
Abstract The presence or lack of eclipses in the X-ray light curves of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) can be directly linked to the accreting system geometry. In the case where the compact object is stellar mass and radiates isotropically, we should expect eclipses by a main-sequence to sub-giant secondary star on the recurrence time-

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Stellar populations of ultraluminous infrared galaxies

open access: yes, 2011
Ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) have several types according to dominance of starburst or AGN component. We made stellar population analysis for a sample of 160 ULIRGs to study the evolution of ULIRGs. We found that the dominance of intermediate-

AGN Jet Mass Loading and Truncation by Stellar Winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Active Galactic Nuclei can produce extremely powerful jets. While tightly collimated, the scale of these jets and the stellar density at galactic centers implies that there will be many jet/star interactions, which can mass-load the jet through stellar ...

The MASSIVE Survey - VII. The relationship of angular momentum, stellar mass and environment of early-type galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We analyze the environmental properties of 370 present-day early-type galaxies in the MASSIVE and ATLAS3D surveys, two complementary volume-limited integral-field spectroscopic (IFS) galaxy surveys spanning absolute $K$-band magnitude $-21.5 > M_K > -26 ...

Signatures of the core-powered mass-loss mechanism in the exoplanet population: dependence on stellar properties and observational predictions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Recent studies have shown that atmospheric mass-loss powered by the cooling luminosity of a planet’s core can explain the observed radius valley separating super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, even without photoevaporation.

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

The ages and metallicities of galaxies in the local universe

open access: yes, 2005
We derive stellar metallicities, light-weighted ages and stellar masses for a magnitude-limited sample of 175,128 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release Two (SDSS DR2).

Precise Stellar Mass and Mass-Luminosity Data [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
Recent progress in observing and data reduction methods for precise mass and mass-luminosity determinations in binary systems are briefly reviewed. The foundations appear to have been laid for a new burst of accurate data. Detailed model simulations of the individual systems are the best way to use these data to critically test the theoretical models ...
