A multi-frequency study of the peculiar interacting system Arp 206 [PDF]
Arp 206 is a nearby, relatively large, and bright interacting system comprising unequal members: NGC 3432 and UGC 5983. A third anonymous galaxy, Arp 206c, is visible in the field. The CCD images show a well-developed bridge between NGC 3432 and UGC 5983.

Radial HI Profiles at the Periphery of Galactic Disks: The Role of Ionizing Background Radiation
Observations of neutral hydrogen in spiral galaxies reveal a sharp cutoff in the radial density profile at some distance from the center. Using 22 galaxies with known HI distributions as an example, we discuss the question of whether this effect can be ...

ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

Sustainable development strategies for historic building museumization based on UGC data
In China, many historic buildings are classified as “immovable cultural relics” and repurposed as museums to comply with preservation policies. However, because this approach often prioritizes physical conservation over dynamic cultural engagement ...

Dynamic Evolution and Transformative Trends in the Consumer Market: A Technology Paradox Perspective
ABSTRACT The consumer market is defined by tensions arising from the clash between technological advancement and consumer psychology. Current research lacks a unifying framework to explain these contradictions. Addressing this gap, we introduce a conceptual model based on technology paradox theory, which maps the dynamic process from antecedents ...

ViDA-UGC: Detailed Image Quality Analysis via Visual Distortion Assessment for UGC Images
Recent advances in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have introduced a paradigm shift for Image Quality Assessment (IQA) from unexplainable image quality scoring to explainable IQA, demonstrating practical applications like quality control and optimization guidance.
