Periodic orbits and gravitational wave radiation in short hair black hole spacetimes for an extreme mass ratio system by Lai Zhao, Meirong Tang, Zhaoyi Xu

“…This paper studies the influence of the hair parameter $$Q_m$$ Q m and the structural parameter $$k$$ k of the short hair BH on the periodic orbits of particles and gravitational wave radiation in the extreme mass ratio(EMR) system. The research results show that $$Q_m$$ Q m has a significant impact on the radius of the orbit, angular momentum, and the $$E-L$$ E - L space. …”

Vitamin D sensitizes cervical cancer to radiation-induced apoptosis by inhibiting autophagy through degradation of Ambra1 by Zhaoming zhang, Xinyue Yu, Guanghui Cheng

“…We found that vitamin D sensitized vitamin D receptor (VDR)-positive CC cells (Siha and Caski) to the cytotoxic effects of radiation in vivo and in vitro. We examined conventional radiation-induced cell death, such as DNA damage and cell cycle arrest, in vitamin D–treated cells to detect the underlying mechanism, but no association was observed between them. …”
