Systematic study of the composition of Type I X-ray burst ashes: Neutron star structure v.s. Reaction rate uncertainties

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Guoqing Zhen, Helei Liu, Akira Dohi, Guoliang Lü, Nobuya Nishimura | Summary: In this study, we calculate for the first time the impacts of neutron star(NS) structure on the type I X-ray burst ashes using the texttt{MESA} code. We find an increased mass fraction of the heavier […]

Estimation of Treatment Effects based on Kernel Matching

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Chong Ding, Zheng Li, Hon Keung Tony Ng, Wei Gao, | Summary: The treatment effect represents the average causal impact or outcome difference between treatment and control groups. Treatment effects can be estimated through social experiments, regression models, matching estimators, and instrumental variables. In this paper, we […]

Viral-mediated Oct4 overexpression and inhibition of Notch signaling synergistically induce neurogenic competence in mammalian Muller glia.

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Nguyet Le, Sherine Awad, Isabella Palazzo, Thanh Hoang and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: Retinal Müller glia in cold-blooded vertebrates can reprogram into neurogenic progenitors to replace neurons lost to injury, but mammals lack this ability. While recent studies have shown that transgenic overexpression of neurogenic bHLH factors and glial-specific […]
