A Systematic Search for Candidate Supermassive Black Hole Binaries Using Periodic Mid-infrared Light Curves of Active Galactic Nuclei by Di Luo, Ning Jiang, Xin Liu

“…Analyzing a parent sample of 48,932 objects selected from about half a million AGNs, we have identified 28 candidate periodic AGNs with periods ranging from 1268 to 2437 days (in the observer frame), by fitting their WISE light curves with sinusoidal functions. However, our mock simulation of the parent sample indicates that stochastic variability can actually produce a similar number of periodic sources, underscoring the difficulty in robustly identifying real periodic signals with WISE light curves, given their current sampling. …”

Spatiotemporal impact of mesoscale eddies on chlorophyll-a concentration in the North Atlantic by Jinghui Cai, Jialong Sun, Jialong Sun, Jialong Sun, Siyuan Qin, Yaonan Li

“…IntroductionMesoscale eddies play a crucial role in energy transport and ecological regulation in the North Atlantic Ocean.MethodsBased on multi-source datasets, including satellite remote sensing and Argo float observations from 2009 to 2018, this study employs the Velocity Gradient Detection (VGD) method to identify eddy boundaries and cores, in combination with a spatiotemporal dynamic matching technique, to systematically analyze eddy characteristics and their impacts on chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations.ResultsResults show that eddy activity is predominantly concentrated in the Gulf Stream extension region (24°N–48°N, 40°W–60°W). …”

Tumor-specific CD8+ T cells from the bone marrow resist exhaustion and exhibit increased persistence in tumor-bearing hosts as compared with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes by Ivan Borrello, Amy Thomas, Luca Biavati, Robert Leone, Elizabeth M Zawidzka, Claudio Zanettini, Luigi Marchionni

“…Importantly, in a competitive transfer experiment, BM T cells infiltrated the tumor more efficiently than TILs, displayed a higher polyfunctionality with interleukin-2, interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α production and showed greater persistence compared with TILs.Conclusions T cells from the BM appear superior to TILs as a source of cells for cellular therapy. They possess a memory-enriched phenotype and exhibit improved effector function, greater persistence within a tumor-bearing host, and the capacity for increased tumor infiltration. …”
