It is now apparent that classical T Tauri-like outflows commonly accompany the formation of young brown dwarfs. To date two optical outflows have been discovered and results presented in this paper increase this number to three. Using spectro-astrometry the origin of the LS-RCrA 1 forbidden emission lines in a blue-shifted outflow is confirmed. The non-detection of the red-shifted component of ...

Primary open-angle glaucoma is associated with elevated intraocular pressure, which in turn is believed to result from impaired outflow of aqueous humour. Aqueous humour outflow passes mainly through the trabecular meshwork (TM) and then through pores formed in the endothelium of Schlemm's canal (SC), which experiences a basal-to-apical pressure gradient. This gradient dramatically deforms the ...

We show that the starburst-driven outflow in the peculiar galaxy NGC 2782 forms a well-defined collimated bubble which has an extent of ∼ 1 kpc and a closed shell at its edge, as seen in Hα, [O III], and 5 GHz radio continuum. The shell coincides with the maximum in intensity and linewidths of [O III] lines in a blueshifted emission nebula which was previously detected via optical spectroscopy ...

PURPOSE Mice are commonly used to study conventional outflow physiology. This study examined how physical factors (hydration, temperature, and anterior chamber [AC] deepening) influence ocular perfusion measurements in mice. METHODS Outflow facility (C) and pressure-independent outflow (Fu) were assessed by multilevel constant pressure perfusion of enucleated eyes from C57BL/6 mice. To examin...

We present observations of outflows in the star-forming region NGC 1333 using the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-Wave Astronomy (CARMA). We combined the CO and CO (10) CARMA mosaics with data from the 14-m Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory (FCRAO) to probe the central, most dense and active region of this protostellar cluster at scales from 5′′ to 7′ (or 1000 AU to 0.5 pc at a...

Purpose This study was designed to evaluate the changes in aqueous humor dynamics (AHD) produced by selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) and to explore if baseline AHD parameters are predictive of IOP response to SLT. Methods Thirty-one consecutive subjects diagnosed with ocular hypertension or primary open-angle glaucoma scheduled to undergo SLT as their primary IOP-lowering therapy were en...

We performed spectral line observations of CO J = 2 → 1, CO J = 1 → 0, and CO J = 1 → 0 and polarimetric observations in the λ = 1.3 mm continuum and CO J = 2 → 1 toward a multiple protostar system, L1448 IRS 3, in the Perseus molecular complex at a distance of ∼ 250 pc, using the BIMA array. In the λ = 1.3 mm continuum, two sources (IRS 3A and 3B) were clearly detected with estimated envelope ...

Nitric oxide (NO) donors decrease intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing aqueous outflow facility in the trabecular meshwork (TM) and/or Schlemm's canal. However, the cellular mechanisms are unknown. Cellular mechanisms known to regulate outflow facility include changes in cell volume and cellular contractility. In this study, we investigated the effects of NO donors on outflow facility and N...

Elevated intraocular pressure is the main risk factor in primary open-angle glaucoma, involving an increased resistance to aqueous humor outflow in the juxtacanalicular region of the conventional outflow pathway which includes the trabecular meshwork (TM) and the inner wall of Schlemm's canal (SC). Previously, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) was shown to decrease outflow facility in porcine and h...

The multiple protostellar system L1551 IRS5 exhibits a large-scale bipolar molecular outflow that spans ∼1.5 pc on both the NE (redshifted) and SW (blueshifted) sides of the system. We have studied this outflow within ∼4000 AU of its driving source(s) with the SubMillimeter Array. Our CO(2–1) image at ∼4 (∼560 AU) resolution reveals three distinct components: 1) an X-shaped structure spanning ∼...
