Research Note: What can HST-GHRS Fe II observations of $\mathsf{\alpha}$ Orionis (M2 Iab) tell us about short-period heating?

What can observations tell us about coronal heating?

The actual source of coronal heating is one of the longest standing unsolved mysteries in all of astrophysics, but it is only in recent years that observations have begun making significant contributions. Coronal loops, their structure and sub-structure, their temperature and density details, and their evolution with time, may hold the key to solving this mystery. Because spatial resolution of ...

What Can Cloud Observations Tell Us about Climate Variability?

Clouds have a large impact on the Earth’s radiation budget and hence have the potential to exert strong feedbacks on climate variability and climate change. These feedbacks are not wellunderstood, so it is essential to investigate observed relationships between cloud properties and other parameters of the climate system. Suitable cloud datasets based on surface observations and satellite observ...

What Intergroup Relations Research Can Tell Us about Coalition Building

What can proteomics tell us about platelets?

More than 130 years ago, it was recognized that platelets are key mediators of hemostasis. Nowadays, it is established that platelets participate in additional physiological processes and contribute to the genesis and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Recent data indicate that the platelet proteome, defined as the complete set of expressed proteins, comprises >5000 proteins and is highly ...

What Charm Can Tell Us About Beauty

A number of ways are reviewed in which the study of charmed particles can answer corresponding questions about particles containing b quarks. Topics include the properties of resonances, the magnitude of decay constants, the size of spin-dependent effects, and the hierarchy of lifetime differences.
