Performance Triggered Adaptive Model Reduction for Soil Moisture Estimation in Precision Irrigation

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate soil moisture information is essential for precise irrigation to enhance water use efficiency. Estimating soil moisture based on limited soil moisture sensors is especially critical for obtaining comprehensive soil moisture information when dealing with large‐scale agricultural fields.

TESS Stellar Rotation up to 80 Days in the Southern Continuous Viewing Zone

The Astrophysical Journal
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission delivers time-series photometry for millions of stars across the sky, offering a probe into stellar astrophysics, including rotation, on a population scale. However, light-curve systematics related

Constraining stellar physics from red-giant stars in binaries – stellar rotation, mixing processes and stellar activity

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The unparalleled photometric data obtained by NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope has led to an improved understanding of stellar structure and evolution - in particular for solar-like oscillators in this context. Binary stars are fascinating objects.

The Impact of Rotation on the Evolution of Low-Mass Stars

, 2007
High precision photometry and spectroscopy of low-mass stars reveal a variety of properties standard stellar evolution cannot predict. Rotation, an essential ingredient of stellar evolution, is a step towards resolving the discrepancy between model ...

RhoA and Rac1 as Mechanotransduction Mediators in Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Analysing RhoA and Rac1 protein levels in Colorectal cancer (CRC) samples under mechanical strain highlights their potential as diagnostic markers. Monitoring their activity could offer valuable insights into how cancer spreads, paving the way for new approaches to better understand and diagnose colorectal cancer.

Relations of Rotation and Chromospheric Activity to Stellar Age for FGK Dwarfs from Kepler and LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The empirical relations between rotation period, chromospheric activity, and age can be used to estimate stellar age. To calibrate these relations, we present a catalog, including the masses and ages of 52,321 FGK dwarfs, 47,489 chromospheric activity ...

Behavior of Li abundances in solar-analog stars II. Evidence of the connection with rotation and stellar activity

, 2010
We previously attempted to ascertain why the Li I 6708 line-strengths of Sun-like stars differ so significantly despite the superficial similarities of stellar parameters.

LIN28B Promotes Cancer Cell Dissemination and Angiogenesis

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Children diagnosed with high‐risk neuroblastoma have a 5‐year event‐free survival rate of less than 50% and poor outcomes after recurrence. Deregulation of the LIN28B oncogene can be addressed in these patients. Upregulation of LIN28B is shown to support the metastatic cascade.

TESS Asteroseismology of β Hydri: A Subgiant with a Born-again Dynamo

The Astrophysical Journal
The 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.

Determination of Stellar Rotational Velocities [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985
The three basic methods for measuring axial rotation of stars had been suggested before the beginning of this century. These are (1) Modulation of starlight due to dark or bright areas on a rotating star; (2) Distortions in the radial velocity curves of eclipsing binary systems; and (3) Line profile analysis. Research in each of these areas is reviewed.
