Origin of chemical and dynamical properties of the Galactic thick disk
We adopt a scenario in which the Galactic thick disk was formed by minor merging between the first generation of the Galactic thin disk (FGTD) and a dwarf galaxy about 9 Gyr ago and thereby investigate chemical and dynamical properties of the Galactic ...

Thick Disk Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
In this work we attempt to find Planetary Nebulae(PNe) belonging to the thick disk population of the Galaxy, based on the proper motion and radial velocity data of the objects available in literature, by using a simulation and Bayesian likelihood analysis.

We employ measurements of the [alpha/Fe] ratio derived from low-resolution (R~2000) spectra of 17,277 G-type dwarfs from the SEGUE survey to separate them into likely thin- and thick-disk subsamples.

The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury. XX. The Disk of M31 is Thick
We present a new approach to measuring the thickness of a partially face-on stellar disk, using dust geometry. In a moderately-inclined disk galaxy, the fraction of reddened stars is expected to be 50% everywhere, assuming that dust lies in a thin ...

Expanding Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias Limits: Biallelic SPAST Variants in Cerebral Palsy Mimics
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) are rare neurodegenerative disorders marked by spasticity and lower limb weakness. The most common type, SPG4, is usually autosomal dominant and caused by SPAST gene variants, typically presenting as pure HSP.

Unveiling a Young Thick Disk in the Milky Way
The thickness of a galaxy’s disk provides a valuable probe of its formation and evolution history. Observations of the Milky Way and local galaxies have revealed an ubiquitous disk structure with two distinctive components: an old thick disk and a ...

It has been demonstrated that, in the terahertz (THz) waveband, disk scattering slab modes (DSSMs) can exist in a heterostructure composed of a metallic subwavelength disk array coated on one surface of a dielectric slab.

Red Thick Disks of Nearby Galaxies [PDF]
Edge on systems reveal the properties of disk galaxies as a function of height, z, above the plane. Four local edge-on galaxies, that are close enough to have been resolved into stars by the Hubble Space Telescope, show thick disks, composed of a red stellar population, which is old and relatively metal rich.

Lessons Learned: Quality Analysis of Optical Coherence Tomography in Neuromyelitis Optica
ABSTRACT Introduction Optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐derived retina measurements are markers for neuroaxonal visual pathway status. High‐quality OCT scans are essential for reliable measurements, but their acquisition is particularly challenging in eyes with severe visual impairment, as often observed in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders ...
