High intensity ultraviolet radiation induced changes in aquatic arthropod with retene and riboflavin
Ozone depletion is resulting into increase in ultraviolet radiation level in the world. Exposure to UV radiation has been found to have negative effects on aquatic and terrestrial organisms.

Hawking radiation from a five-dimensional Lovelock black hole [PDF]
We investigate Hawking radiation from a five-dimensional Lovelock black hole using the Hamilton-Jacobi method. The behavior of the rate of radiation is plotted for various values of the ultraviolet correction parameter and the cosmological constant. The results show that, owing to the ultraviolet correction and the presence of dark energy represented ...

Metal-rich stars are less suitable for the evolution of life on their planets
Atmospheric ozone and oxygen protect the terrestrial biosphere against harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Here, we model atmospheres of Earth-like planets hosted by stars with near-solar effective temperatures (5300 to 6300 K) and a broad range of ...

Tips for Deciphering and Quick Calculation of Radiation Spectra [PDF]
Radiation spectra from ultra-relativistic electrons in thin [$T\ll l_f(\omega)$] and thick [$T\gg l_f(\omega)$] targets are discussed. The method of simplified averaging is described by examples of Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect and radiation at doughnut scattering.

Intensity-correlated spiking infrared and ultraviolet emission from sodium vapors [PDF]
The directional spiking infrared and ultraviolet emission from sodium vapors excited to the 4D5/2 level by a continuous-wave resonant laser pump, that constitute a novel feature of the cooperative effects, has been analyzed. Cascade mirrorless lasing at 2207 and 2338 nm on population-inverted transitions and ultraviolet radiation at 330 nm that is ...

Ultraviolet Radiation from Evolved Stellar Populations: II. The Ultraviolet Upturn Phenomenon in Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
We present an analysis of the far-ultraviolet upturn phenomenon (UVX) observed in elliptical galaxies and spiral galaxy bulges. Our premise is that the UV radiation from these systems emanates primarily from extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars and their progeny.

Ultraviolet radiation changes plant color
Background Plant absorption of ultraviolet (UV) radiation can result in multiple deleterious effects to plant tissues. As a result, plants have evolved an array of strategies to protect themselves from UV radiation, particularly in the UV-B range (280 ...
