Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Quiet Please: Detrending Radial Velocity Variations from Stellar Activity with a Physically Motivated Spot Model

The Astronomical Journal
For solar-type stars, spots and their associated magnetic regions induce radial velocity perturbations through the Doppler rotation signal and the suppression of convective blueshift, collectively known as rotation modulation.

Meta-analysis of Photometric and Asteroseismic Measurements of Stellar Rotation Periods: The Lomb–Scargle Periodogram, Autocorrelation Function, and Wavelet and Rotational Splitting Analysis for 92 Kepler Asteroseismic Targets

The Astrophysical Journal, 2022
We perform intensity variability analyses (photometric analyses: the Lomb–Scargle periodogram, autocorrelation, and wavelet) and asteroseismic analysis of 92 Kepler solar-like main-sequence stars to understand the reliability of the measured stellar ...

Disentangling planetary orbits from stellar activity in radial-velocity surveys [PDF]

, 2013
The majority of extra-solar planets have been discovered (or confirmed after follow-up) through radial-velocity (RV) surveys. Using ground-based spectrographs such as High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planetary Search (HARPS) and HARPS-North, it is now ...

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

Rotation and Stellar Evolution [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981
Does rotation influence stellar evolution? Does it cause observational effects other than line broadening? Can rotation be responsible for mixing of chemical elements throughout the star? Do evolved stars have rapidly rotating cores? This, for instance, is of interest if one wants to compute the details of supernova events.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Stellar Cycle Variability in Mount Wilson Stars and Dynamo Models: Rotation Rate and Dynamo Number Dependency

The Astrophysical Journal
Similar to the solar cycle, the magnetic cycles of other solar-type stars are also variable. How the variability of the stellar cycle changes with the rotation rate or the dynamo number is valuable information for understanding the stellar dynamo process.
