The delay of shock breakout due to circumstellar material evident in most type II supernovae
Type II supernovae (SNe II) originate from the explosion of hydrogen-rich supergiant massive stars. Their first electromagnetic signature is the shock breakout (SBO), a short-lived phenomenon that can last for...

Open AccessHMGB1 in the pathogenesis of ultraviolet-induced ocular surface inflammation
High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) functions as a transcription-enhancing nuclear protein as well as a crucial cytokine that regulates inflammation. This study demonstrated that secretion of HMGB1 due to ultrav...

Warming influenced by the ratio of black carbon to sulphate and the black-carbon source
Black-carbon aerosols absorb solar radiation and are thought to be a significant source of global warming. Surface and aircraft measurements of aerosol plumes in China suggest that solar absorption increases w...

Atmospheric Deposition of Nitrogen and Sulfur in the Yellow Sea Region: Significance of Long-Range Transport in East Asia
The amounts of nitrogen and sulfur deposited in the region of the Yellow Sea in both dry and wet forms were estimated focusing on the period between 1999 and 2000. Dry deposition fluxes were obtained using con...

Open AccessLong gamma-ray burst progenitors: boundary conditions and binary models
The observed association of Long Gamma-Ray Bursts (LGRBs) with peculiar Type Ic supernovae gives support to Woosley‘s collapsar/hypernova model, in which the GRB is produced by the collapse of the rapidly rot...

Head-On Collisions of Isothermal Clouds
Using our three-dimensional hydrodynamics code BTSPH (Binary Tree SPH; Kim et al. 1994), we have simulated the head-on collisions between two identical clouds with 8000 particles. As an initial cloud we take an i...

Optimisation of dose distribution for linear accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery
The work presented in the paper addresses a method for obtaining the optimal dose distribution for LINAC-based stereotactic radiosurgery. As many targets have nonspherical or irregular shapes and three-dimensi...
