The Directly Imaged Exoplanet Host Star 51 Eridani is a Gamma Doradus Pulsator
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 51 Eri is well known for hosting a directly imaged giant planet and for its membership to the β Pictoris moving group. Using 2 minute cadence photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we detect multiperiodic variability in 51 Eri ...

Magnetic Fields in Low-mass Stars: An Overview of Observational Biases [PDF]
, 2013 Stellar magnetic dynamos are driven by rotation, rapidly rotating stars produce stronger magnetic fields than slowly rotating stars do. The Zeeman effect is the most important indicator of magnetic fields, but Zeeman broadening must be disentangled from other broadening mechanisms, mainly rotation.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

The Evolution of Stellar X-Ray Activity and Angular Momentum as Seen by eROSITA, TESS, and Gaia
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe have assembled a sample of ∼8200 stars with spectral types F5V–M5V, all having directly measured X-ray luminosities from eROSITA and rotation periods from TESS and having empirically estimated ages via their membership in stellar clusters and groups ...

Photometric magnetic-activity metrics tested with the Sun: application to Kepler M dwarfs
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2014 The Kepler mission has been providing high-quality photometric data leading to many breakthroughs in the exoplanet search and in stellar physics. Stellar magnetic activity results from the interaction between rotation, convection, and magnetic field ...

Living with a Red Dwarf: X-Ray, UV, and Ca ii Activity–Age Relationships of M Dwarfs
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The vast majority of stars in the nearby stellar neighborhood are M dwarfs. Their low masses and luminosities result in slow rates of nuclear evolution and minimal changes to the stars’ observable properties, even along astronomical timescales.

Influence of Rotation on Stellar Evolution [PDF]
EAS Publications Series, 2013 The Sun has been known to rotate for more than 4 centuries, and evidence is also available through direct measurements, that almost all stars rotate. In this lecture, I will propose a review of the different physical processes associated to rotation that are expected to impact the evolution of stars.

Differential Rotation in F Stars [PDF]
, 2007 Differential rotation can be detected in single line profiles of stars rotating more rapidly than about $v \sin{i} = 10$ km s$^{-1}$ with the Fourier transform technique. This allows to search for differential rotation in large samples to look for correlations between differential rotation and other stellar parameters.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six
