Near - Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of HD 142527 ?
Context. HD 142527 is a pre-transition disk with strong evidence for on-going planet formation. Recent observations show a disrupted disk with spiral arms, a dust-depleted inner cavity and the possible presence of gas streams driving gas from the outer disk towards the central star. Aims. We aim to derive the morphology of the disk, as well as the distribution and properties of the dust at its ...
متن کاملThe Molecular Pathology of Huntington’s Disease (HD)
Huntington’s disease (HD) is one of nine known neurodegenerative conditions caused by CAG trinucleotide repeat expansions that are translated into abnormally long polyglutamine tracts in the mutant protein. This review describes the clinical and pathological features of HD and considers the genetic and transgenic/knockout mouse data supporting gain-of-function vs. loss-of-function mechanisms wh...
متن کاملHD 139614 , HD 142666 and HD 144432 : evidence for circumstellar disks ?
The morphology of the material surrounding Her-big Ae/Be stars is still a topic of debate. Distinct models with different geometry and optical thickness are found to be compatible with the observed IR excess. This indicates that it is not possible to resolve this question by only looking at the fluxes. Therefore, this paper compares three known Herbig Ae/Be stars with very similar energy distri...
متن کاملPreparing for preventive clinical trials: the Predict-HD study.
BACKGROUND The optimal design and outcome measures for preventive clinical trials in neurodegenerative diseases are unknown. OBJECTIVE To examine measures that may be associated with disease in the largest cohort ever recruited of prediagnosed individuals carrying the gene expansion for Huntington disease (HD). DESIGN The Predict-HD study is a multicenter observational research study in pro...
متن کاملThe puzzling abundance pattern of HD 134439 and HD 134440 ⋆
Abundances of 18 elements are determined for the common proper-motion pair, HD134439 and HD 134440, which shows high [Mn/Fe] and low [α/Fe] ratios as compared to normal halo stars. Moreover, puzzling abundances are indicated from elements whose origins are normally considered to be from the same nucleosynthesis history. Particularly, we have found that [Mg/Fe] and [Si/Fe] are lower than [Ca/Fe]...
