Radiatively-driven stellar winds [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1986
In this review, attention will be focussed exclusively on the winds of hot stars, concentrating for the most part on spectral types 0 and B. For these stars, a clear consensus has emerged that it is the gradient of selective radiation pressure - i.e., line-driving - that explains the high terminal velocities, typically ~ 2000 km s−1, of their winds ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

On the effects of stellar winds on exoplanetary magnetospheres

, 2014
The habitable zone is the range of orbital distances from a host star in which an exoplanet would have a surface temperature suitable for maintaining liquid water.

Interaction between Winds from Weak-lined T Tauri Stars with Exoplanetary Magnetospheres

The Astrophysical Journal
T Tauri stars, in more advanced stages of evolution, during the final accretion phase of stellar formation, exhibit intense stellar winds and surface magnetic fields with intensities around a kilogauss.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated.

Accretion in supergiant High Mass X-ray Binaries

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Supergiant High Mass X-ray Binary systems (sgHMXBs) consist of a massive, late type, star and a neutron star. The massive stars exhibits strong, radiatively driven, stellar winds.

O VI in Stellar Winds [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979
The region of the O VI resonance doublet around 1030 Å has been observed in 9 stars with the high resolution (0.051 Å FWHM) detector on the Copernicus satellite spectrometer. Although the spectra are confused with interstellar Lyman β and H2 absorption, P Cygni profiles or shifted absorption lines indicating mass flow were found in ζ Pup (O4If), 15 Mon

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

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

FEBS 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 ...
