MACHOS: Markov clusters of homologous subsequences
MOTIVATION The classification of proteins into homologous groups (families) allows their structure and function to be analysed and compared in an evolutionary context. The modular nature of eukaryotic proteins presents a considerable challenge to the delineation of families, as different local regions within a single protein may share common ancestry with distinct, even mutually exclusive, sets...
متن کاملX-ray emission from dark clusters of MACHOs
MACHOs (Massive Astrophysical Compact Halo Objects) as discovered by microlensing experiments towards the LMC provide a natural explanation for the galactic halo dark matter. A realistic possibility is that MACHOs are brown dwarfs of mass ∼ 0.1M . Various arguments suggest that brown dwarfs should have a coronal X-ray emission of ∼ 1027 erg s−1. As MACHOs are presumably clumped into dark cluste...
متن کاملOn Clusters in Markov Chains
Motivated by the computational difficulty of analyzing very large Markov chains, we define a notion of clusters in (not necessarily reversible) Markov chains, and explore the possibility of analyzing a cluster “in vitro,” without regard to the remainder of the chain. We estimate the stationary probabilities of the states in the cluster using only transition information for these states, and bou...
متن کاملMACHOs: THE PLOT THICKENS
We discuss the implications of the recent upward revision of the LMC microlensing rate by the MACHO Collaboration. We conclude: (i) A good case for the existence of baryonic dark matter in the halo has been made; (ii) The case for the existence of cold dark matter is unaffected and still compelling; and (iii) The Galactic halo is still an excellent place to search for cold dark matter particles...
متن کاملDynamical limits on galactic winds, halo machos and intergalactic globular clusters
We argue that any violent galactic winds following early epoch of star bursts would significantly weaken the potentials of galaxies, and leave lasting signatures such as a lowered dark halo density and preferentially radial/escaping orbits for halo tracers such as globular clusters. A galaxy is disintegrated if more than half of its dynamical mass is blown off. The presence of dense halos in ga...
