We present the results of a systematic search for transiting planets in a ∼5 Myr open cluster, NGC 2362. We observed ∼1200 candidate cluster members, of which ∼475 are believed to be genuine cluster members, for a total of∼100 hours. We identify 15 light curves with reductions in flux that pass all our detection criteria, and 6 of the candidates have occultation depths compatible with a planeta...

Background:The current study aimed at evaluating the association between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level in upper normal limits with metabolic syndrome, modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and its components according to Adult Treatment Panel III of National Cholesterol Education Program.

Aims. We report upper limits to the very high energy flux (E > 100 GeV) of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 454.3 (z = 0.859) derived by the Cherenkov telescope MAGIC during the high states of July/August and November/December 2007. We compare the upper limits derived in both time slots with the available quasi-simultaneous MeV-GeV data from the AGILE γ-ray satellite and interpret the observat...

BACKGROUND The impact of blood sampling in sitting vs supine positions on measurements of plasma metanephrines for diagnosis of pheochromocytoma is unknown. METHODS We compared plasma concentrations of free metanephrines in samples from patients with primary hypertension obtained after supine rest with those obtained in the sitting position without preceding rest. We also assessed the effects...

Galaxy clusters might be sources of TeV gamma rays emitted by high-energy protons and electrons accelerated by large scale structure formation shocks, galactic winds, or active galactic nuclei. Furthermore, gamma rays may be produced in dark matter particle annihilation processes at the cluster cores. We report on observations of the galaxy clusters Perseus and Abell 2029 using the 10 m Whipple...

We have carried out a sensitive search for gas emission lines at infrared and millimeter wavelengths for a sample of 15 young sun–like stars selected from our dust disk survey with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We have used mid–infrared lines to trace the warm (300–100K) gas in the inner disk and millimeter transitions of CO to probe the cold (∼20K) outer disk. We report no gas line detections f...

We discuss the relevance, for the search of gravitational-wave bursts, of upper limits on the total mass loss of the Galaxy which come from various astronomical observations. For sub-millisecond bursts we obtain limits on the event rate, as a function of the GW amplitude, which are stronger than the corresponding upper limits set by LIGO in the S2 run. A detection of a burst rate saturating the...

While it is generally agreed that the emitting regions in Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) move ultra relativistically towards the observer, different estimates of the initial Lorentz factors, Γ0, lead to different, at times conflicting estimates. We show here that the quiet periods in which the signals goes down below the instrumental thresholds, put strong upper limits on the values of Γ0. According t...

Defining ecologically relevant upper temperature limits of species is important in the context of environmental change. The approach used in the present paper estimates the relationship between rates of temperature change and upper temperature limits for survival in order to evaluate the maximum long-term survival temperature (Ts). This new approach integrates both the exposure time and the exp...
