Optical counterparts of cosmological GRBs due to heating of ISM in the parent galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We investigated influence of cosmological GRB on the surrounding interstellar medium. It was shown that \gamma-radiation from the burst heats interstellar gas to the temperatures > 10^4 K up to the distance \sim 10 pc. For high density ISM optical and UV

UV-A radiation effects on higher plants: Exploring the known unknown.

open access: yesPlant Science, 2017
Ultraviolet-A radiation (UV-A: 315-400nm) is a component of solar radiation that exerts a wide range of physiological responses in plants. Currently, field attenuation experiments are the most reliable source of information on the effects of UV-A. Common

Mathematical Assessment of Aerosol Impact on the Diffuse-to-Global Ratio of Solar UV Radiation

open access: yesMathematics
This study is devoted to investigating the effect of aerosols on solar UV radiation. In the ultraviolet range, scattering processes are dominant and lead to a substantial contribution of diffuse UV radiation to the global UV irradiance.

Radiative non-isothermal Bondi accretion onto a massive black hole

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper, we present the classical Bondi accretion theory for the case of non-isothermal accretion processes onto a supermassive black hole (SMBH), including the effects of X-ray heating and the radiation force due to electron scattering and ...

Physiological performance by growth rate, pigment and protein content of the brown seaweed Sargassum filipendula (Ochrophyta: Fucales) induced by moderate UV radiation exposure in the laboratory

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2020
UV radiation is a factor affecting the distribution and physiology of photosynthetic organisms in an aquatic ecosystem. Studies with macroalgae indicate diverse biological disturbances in response to UV radiation.

Molecular Hydrogen Emission from Protoplanetary Disks II. Effects of X-ray Irradiation and Dust Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Detailed models for the density and temperature profiles of gas and dust in protoplanetary disks are constructed by taking into account X-ray and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation from a central T Tauri star, as well as dust size growth and settling toward ...

Effects of ultraviolet radiation on metabolic rate and fitness of Aedes albopictus and Culex pipiens mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Natural and anthropogenic changes (e.g., land use change, pollution) will alter many environmental factors in the coming years, including the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth’s surface.

Episode of unusual high solar ultraviolet radiation over central Europe due to dynamical reduced total ozone in May 2005 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In late May 2005 unusual high levels of solar ultraviolet radiation were observed over central Europe. In Northern Germany the measured irradiance of erythemally effective radiation exceeded the climatological mean by more than about 20%.

Environmental & health impacts of ultraviolet radiation: current trends and mitigation strategies

open access: yesDiscover Sustainability
Contrary to the conventional wisdom and practices moderate non-burning ultraviolet (UV) radiation may be beneficial to our existence, but ecosystems and human health are seriously threatened by the rise in UV radiation from ozone layer loss and climate ...

Short-term UV-B radiation effects on morphology, physiological traits and accumulation of bioactive compounds in Prunella vulgaris L.

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions, 2017
Prunella vulgaris plants (full-bloom stage) were subjected to short-term (15 days) UV-B radiation in a growth chamber. UV-B radiation was effective at enhancing morphological and biomass characteristics and decreasing chlorophyll contents of P. vulgaris.
