GRAVITATIONAL CONTRACTION VERSUS SUPERNOVA DRIVING AND THE ORIGIN OF THE VELOCITY DISPERSION–SIZE RELATION IN MOLECULAR CLOUDS [PDF]
Molecular cloud (MC) observations show that clouds have non-thermal velocity dispersions that scale with the cloud size as σ ∝ R1/2 at a constant surface density, and for varying surface density scale with both the cloud’s size and surface density, σ2 ...

Testing Newtonian gravity with distant globular clusters: NGC1851 and NGC1904
Globular clusters are useful to test the validity of Newtonian dynamics in the low acceleration regime typical of galaxies, without the complications of non-baryonic dark matter. Specifically, in absence of disturbing effects, e.g.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

STELLAR VELOCITY DISPERSION AND ANISOTROPY OF THE MILKY WAY INNER HALO [PDF]
We measure the three components of velocity dispersion, σR, σθ, σϕ, for stars within 6 < R < 30 kpc of the Milky Way using a new radial velocity sample from the MMT telescope. We combine our measurements with previously published data so that we can more

Quantum theory of dispersive electromagnetic modes [PDF]
A quantum theory of dispersion for an inhomogeneous solid is obtained, from a starting point of multipolar coupled atoms interacting with an electromagnetic field.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

The spatial autocorrelation method is an important method for extracting the velocity dispersion curve from microtremor data. However, site data typically cannot strictly meet spatial and temporal stationary feature, and this greatly affects the accuracy

Re-evaluation of the central velocity-dispersion profile in NGC 6388 [PDF]
Context. The globular cluster NGC 6388 is one of the most massive clusters in our Milky Way and has been the subject of many studies. Recently, two independent groups found very different results when measuring its central velocity-dispersion profile ...

Fingerprints of the hierarchical building up of the structure on the gas kinematics of galaxies [PDF]
Recent observational and theoretical works have suggested that the Tully-Fisher Relation might be generalised to include dispersion-dominated systems by combining the rotation and dispersion velocity in the definition of the kinematical indicator ...

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...
