Very high energy cosmic gamma rays from radio and x-ray pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
This thesis is concerned with the detection of very high energy cosmic gamma-rays from isolated pulsars and X-ray binary sources using the atmospheric Cerenkov technique. A general introduction to gamma ray detection techniques is followed by adscription

Comparative assessment of crystallographic and cryo‐EM models in the Protein Data Bank

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Raw data obtained by X‐ray crystallography or cryo‐EM result in experimental maps, ultimately fitted by atomic models. Although the physical principles are different, the final results can be viewed, compared, and evaluated in the same way. With cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) on track to surpass X‐ray crystallography as the preferred method ...

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Double axis X-Ray rocking curves simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Double axis X-ray diffraction has been in use since 1920. Recently the layer structures of optoelectronic devices have been characterised to control the optical properties, for the purpose of optical communication.

X-ray absorption and x-ray fluorescence for the characterization of titanium oxide-modified HPLC silicas

open access: yes, 2015
Titanium oxide grafted on to the surfaces of chromatographic silica was investigated by x-ray fluorescence (XRF) and x-ray absorption (XAS) spectroscopy and the latter used before and after the extensive use of this material as a support for reversed ...

X-Ray Flashes on Helium Novae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A helium nova occurs on a white dwarf (WD) accreting hydrogen-deficient matter from a helium star companion. When the mass of a helium envelope on the WD reaches a critical value, unstable helium burning ignites to trigger a nova outburst.

Radio selection of heavily obscured AGN in the J1030 field: Unraveling a missing Compton-thick population

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Models of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and galaxy coevolution, simulations, and recent JWST observations suggest that the population of heavily obscured, Compton-thick (CTK) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at high redshift might be ...

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

Luminosity dependent X-ray AGN clustering ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We have analysed the angular clustering of X-ray selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) in different flux-limited sub-samples of the Chandra Deep Field North (CDF-N) and South (CDF-S) surveys.
