A consistent retrieval analysis of 10 Hot Jupiters observed in transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a consistent optimal estimation retrieval analysis of ten hot Jupiter exoplanets, each with transmission spectral data spanning the visible to near-infrared wavelength range. Using the NEMESIS radiative transfer and retrieval tool, we calculate a range of possible atmospheric states for WASP-6b, WASP-12b, WASP-17b, WASP-19b, WASP-31b, WASP ...

Further Observations on the Nesting Behavior of \u3ci\u3eLiris Argentatus\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A three-celled nest of Liris argentatus was excavated and examined in upstate New York. The nest was constructed from the terminus of an abandoned cicada-killer burrow and the cells contained 1-4 incompletely paralyzed Gryllus pennsylvanicus as prey. Two

Nanoscale Curvature Regulates YAP/TAZ Nuclear Localization Through Nuclear Deformation and Rupture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses experiments and biophysical modeling to examine the response and adaptation of cells to nanoscale topography of surfaces. It is shown that cytoskeletal assembly and nuclear localization of transcription regulatory factors such as yes‐associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ‐binding motif (TAZ) can be tuned by ...

Ultramorphological analysis of the venom glands and their histochemical relationship with the convoluted glands in the primitive social paper wasp Polistes versicolor (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2005
The venom glands are part of the most important defense weapon in Aculeata: the venom apparatus. The arrangement of these glands can vary among species, but in general they are composed of long secretory tubules connected to a muscular sac-like reservoir.

Don’t Spray the Wasps! Using \u3ci\u3ePolistes\u3c/i\u3e Paper Wasps for Pest Management in the Home Garden [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Pest control poses a challenge to all gardeners, especially those wishing to use organic practices. We examined the potential use of Polistes paper wasps as a bio-control agent in the organic backyard garden.

MTFR2‐Mediated Fission Drives Fatty Acid and Mitochondrial Co‐Transfer from Hepatic Stellate Cells to Tumor Cells Fueling Oncogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the tumor margin of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), activated hepatic stellate cells upregulate MTFR2, initiating inhibiting DRP1 degradation and mitochondrial fission. This enhances mitochondrial availability and facilitates FAs synthesis via ACC1. Additionally, fission promotes RAC1‐mediated cytoskeletal remodeling and Miro1‐mediated mitochondrial

Transiting planets from WASP-South, Euler and TRAPPIST: WASP-68 b, WASP-73 b and WASP-88 b, three hot Jupiters transiting evolved solar-type stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report the discovery by the WASP transit survey of three new hot Jupiters, WASP-68 b, WASP-73 b and WASP-88 b. WASP-68 b has a mass of 0.95+-0.03 M_Jup, a radius of 1.24-0.06+0.10 R_Jup, and orbits a V=10.7 G0-type star (1.24+-0.03 M_sun, 1.69-0.06+0.11 R_sun, T_eff=5911+-60 K) with a period of 5.084298+-0.000015 days.
