The absorption-dominated model for the X-ray spectra of type I active galaxies: MCG-6-30-15 by Miller, L, Turner, T, Reeves, J

“…We also discuss the interpretation of the covering factor and the possible effect of occultation by the accretion disk. Finally, we consider a model for MCG-6-30-15 dominated by clumpy absorption, which is consistent with global covering factor 0.45, although models that include the effects of Compton scattering are required to reach a full understanding. …”

“…</br> <br><strong>Methods: </strong>We report the first observation of the spectral features of Martian ozone (O3) in the mid-infrared range using the Atmospheric Chemistry Suite (ACS) Mid-InfaRed (MIR) channel, a cross-dispersion spectrometer operating in solar occultation mode with the finest spectral resolution of any remote sensing mission to Mars.…”

The Monitor project: the search for transits in the open cluster NGC 2362 by Miller, A, Irwin, J, Aigrain, S, Hodgkin, S, Hebb, L

“…We identify 15 light curves with reductions in flux that pass all our detection criteria, and six of the candidates have occultation depths compatible with a planetary companion. …”

The ectopic ACTH syndrome. by Alexandraki, K, Grossman, AB

“…Nearly any neuroendocrine or non-endocrine tumours may be associated with EAS, but the more prevalent tumours are bronchial carcinoids, small cell lung carcinomas, pancreatic carcinoids, thymic carcinoids, medullary carcinomas of the thyroid, and phaeochromocytomas. Occult tumours are highly represented in all the series (12-38%) and constitute the more challenging cases of EAS, requiring long term follow-up. …”

Isotopic composition of CO2 in the atmosphere of Mars: Fractionation by diffusive separation observed by the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter by Alday, J, Wilson, CF, Irwin, PGJ, Trokhimovskiy, A, Montmessin, F, Fedorova, AA, Belyaev, DA, Olsen, KS, Korablev, O, Lefèvre, F, Braude, AS, Baggio, L, Patrakeev, A, Shakun, A

“…In this study, we monitor the O and C isotopic composition of CO2 between 70 and 130 km for more than half a Martian year using solar occultation observations by the Atmospheric Chemistry Suite onboard the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter. …”

The potential of global positioning system in weather and environmental studies by Yahya, Mohd. Hafiz, Kamaruddin, Md. Nor, Lim, Samsung, Rizos, Chris

“…As GPS technology is still relatively new to the Malaysian weather forecasting community, the principles presented in this paper deal with the two main approaches: the ground-based atmospheric sounding and the radio occultation method. If appropriate strategies are employed during the data acquisition and data processing phases, it is noted that GPS is potentially capable of being implemented as an alternative and promising tool to remotely sense the spatial and temporal variability of the Earth’s atmosphere. …”

Elevated circulating branched chain amino acids are an early event in pancreatic adenocarcinoma development by Mayers, Jared R., Torrence, Margaret E., Fiske, Brian Prescott, Davidson, Shawn Michael, Papagiannakopoulos, Thales, Dayton, Talya Lucia, Vander Heiden, Matthew G.

“…This elevated risk was independent of known predisposing factors, with the strongest association observed among subjects with samples collected 2 to 5 years before diagnosis, when occult disease is probably present. We show that plasma BCAAs are also elevated in mice with early-stage pancreatic cancers driven by mutant Kras expression but not in mice with Kras-driven tumors in other tissues, and that breakdown of tissue protein accounts for the increase in plasma BCAAs that accompanies early-stage disease. …”
