FAST ROTATING BLUE STRAGGLERS PREFER LOOSE CLUSTERS

Fast rotating blue stragglers prefer loose clusters

Abstract Blue stragglers are anomalously luminous core hydrogen-burning stars formed through mass-transfer in binary/triple systems and stellar bempresas.com collisions.Their physical and evolutionary properties are largely unknown and unconstrained.Here we analyze 320 high-resolution spectra of blue stragglers collected in eight galactic globular

Sources of error in the isotopic cholesterol balance method in African green monkeys consuming a cholesterol-free diet

Six African green monkeys were labeled intravenously with [1,2-(3)H]cholesterol while consuming a cholesterol-free liquid formula diet.The plasma cholesterol specific activity was compared with the specific activity of the biliary cholesterol and bile acids and with the fecal neutral steroids in order to determine whether the traditional isotopic b

Can antigen-specific regulatory T cells protect against graft versus host disease and spare anti-malignancy alloresponse?

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation provides effective control of hematopoietic malignancies, but with an associated risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) related morbidity and mortality.Several advances in hematopoietic cell transplantation including high resolution HLA typing, development of reduced intensity conditioning regimens, i
