Mars Crater Production Function Based on Mapped Crater Populations by Zongyu Yue, Sheng Gou, Gregory Michael, Kaichang Di, Yangting Lin, Jianzhong Liu, Xianhua Li, Fuyuan Wu

“…The Martian isochrons are the basis in analyzing the impact flux and surface dating, and currently, they are usually derived from those of the Moon because no samples have been collected from Mars. However, the isochrons obtained by this method have substantial uncertainty, and they urgently need to be optimized based on the samples that are about to be obtained. …”

Viscoelastic properties of differentiating blood cells are fate- and function-dependent. by Andrew E Ekpenyong, Graeme Whyte, Kevin Chalut, Stefano Pagliara, Franziska Lautenschläger, Christine Fiddler, Stephan Paschke, Ulrich F Keyser, Edwin R Chilvers, Jochen Guck

“…Here, we show that during the course of differentiation of human myeloid precursor cells into three different lineages, the cells alter their viscoelastic properties, measured using an optical stretcher, to suit their ultimate fate and function. Myeloid cells circulating in blood have to be advected through constrictions in blood vessels, engendering the need for compliance at short time-scales (<seconds). …”
