Revised Masses for Low-density Planets Orbiting the Disordered M-dwarf System TOI-1266 by Dakotah Tyler, Erik A. Petigura, James Rogers, Jack Lubin, Andreas Seifhart, Jacob L. Bean, Madison Brady, Rafael Luque

“…They are both consistent with rocky cores surrounded by hydrogen helium envelopes. TOI-1266 c may also be consistent with a water-rich composition, but we disfavor that interpretation from an Occam's razor perspective.…”

A Search for Radio Millisecond Pulsar Companions around Extremely Low-mass White Dwarfs with Ellipsoidal Variability by W. J. Huang, Pak-Hin Thomas Tam, L. L. Ren, J. M. Lin

“…Extremely low-mass (ELM) white dwarfs (WDs) are helium-core WDs with masses less than 0.3 M _⊙ . Short-period ELM WD binaries that exhibit ellipsoidal variations may harbor heavier companions, either massive WDs or millisecond pulsars (MSPs). …”

Stimulative Effects of Low Intensity He-Ne Laser Irradiation on the Proliferative Potential and Cell-Cycle Progression of Myoblasts in Culture by Cui-Ping Zhang, Shao-Dan Li, Yan Chen, Yan-Ming Jiang, Peng Chen, Chang-Zhen Wang, Xiao-Bing Fu, Hong-Xiang Kang, Ben-Jian Shen, Jie Liang

“…Primary myoblasts isolated from rat hind legs were cultured in nutrient-deficient medium for 36 hours and then irradiated by helium-neon laser at a certain energy density. Immunohistochemical and flow cytometric analysis revealed that laser irradiation could increase the expression of cellular proliferation marker and the amount of cell subpopulations in the proliferative phase as compared with the nonirradiated control group. …”

Experimental Investigation of the Dependence of Accessible Porosity and Methane Sorption Capacity of Carbonaceous Shales on Particle Size by Garri Gaus, Anton Kalmykov, Bernhard M. Krooss, Reinhard Fink

“…In order to investigate the importance of these effects we have measured unconfined apparent grain densities (helium pycnometry) and methane sorption capacities (high-pressure methane excess sorption) of four carbonaceous shales (Cambro-Ordovician Alum Shale, Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay, Jurassic/Cretaceous Bazhenov Shale, and Late Cretaceous Eagle Ford Shale) as a function of particle size. …”
