X-ray Surveys of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
The proximity, well-determined distance, and low foreground obscuration of the Magellanic Clouds makes them an ideal target for the study of galactic X-ray source populations. Steady progress since the initial detection of X-rays from the LMC in 1968 culminated in the recent Einstein Observatory surveys from which over three dozen supernova remnants ...

An Optically Discovered Outburst from XTE J1859+226
Using the Zwicky Transient Facility, in 2021 February we identified the first known outburst of the black hole X-ray transient XTE J1859+226 since its discovery in 1999. The outburst was visible at X-ray, UV, and optical wavelengths for less than 20 days,

A review of recent developments in the field of X-ray surveys, especially in the hard (2-10 and 5-10 keV) bands, is given. A new detailed comparison between the measurements in the hard band and extrapolations from ROSAT counts, that takes into proper account the observed distribution of spectral slopes, is presented.

An X-Ray Imaging Survey of Quasar Jets: The Complete Survey [PDF]
Abstract We present Chandra X-ray imaging of a flux-limited sample of flat spectrum radio-emitting quasars with jet-like structure. X-rays are detected from 59% of 56 jets. No counter-jets were detected. The core spectra are fitted by power-law spectra with a photon index Γ x , whose distribution is

X-ray survey of the pleiades: dependence of X-ray luminosity on stellar age [PDF]
The study of X-ray emission of stellar clusters, allows to decouple the influence of some individual stellar parameters, as initial conditions, composition and age, on the stellar X-ray luminosity function.

Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

The evolution of galaxies and AGN from deep x-ray and optical surveys [PDF]
Two complementary new surveys of the x-ray background (XRB), the WHDF and the 10 X 10 ks, are presented. 140 serendipitous x-ray hard and soft sources (S(_2)-10 keV 3. 10(^15); S0.5-2 keV 4 .

Optical Counterparts to X-Ray Sources in LSST DP1
We present a crossmatch between a combined catalog of X-ray sources and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 (DP1) to identify optical counterparts.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

We present photometric selection of type 1 quasars in the ≈5.3 deg ^2 XMM-Large Scale Structure survey field with machine learning. We constructed our training and blind-test samples using spectroscopically identified Sloan Digital Sky Survey quasars ...
