As a consequence of the remote location of the Andean páramo, knowledge on their hydrologic functioning is limited; notwithstanding, these alpine tundra ecosystems act as water towers for a large fraction of the society. ...

Aims. We investigate the nature of multiple supernova hosting galaxies, and the types of events that they produce. Methods. Using all known historical supernovae, we split host galaxies into samples containing single or ...

Background: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as safe and effective alternatives to Vitamin-K antagonists for treatment and prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis. Due to their novelty, pharmacokinetic ...

Aims. We analyze OGLE-2007-BLG-050, a high magnification microlensing event () whose peak occurred on 2 May, 2007, with pronounced finite-source and parallax effects. We compute planet detection efficiencies for this event ...

BiP (Immunoglobulin Binding Protein) is a member of the Hsp70 chaperones that participates in protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum. The function of BiP relies on cycles of ATP hydrolysis driving the binding and ...

Aims. We present a detailed analysis of OGLE 2004-BLG-482, a relatively high-magnification single-lens microlensing event that exhibits clear extended-source effects. These events are relatively rare, but they potentially ...

This paper presents and evaluates a continuous recording system designed for a low-cost seismic station. The architecture has three main blocks. An accelerometer sensor based on MEMS technology (Microelectromechanical ...

In this work an optomechanical system inside a Mach-Zehnder interferometer is studied from the perspective of the weak value amplification effect. The optomechanical system consists of a Fabry-Perot cavity with a moving ...
