Planetesimal Formation through Gravitational Instability
Introduction. Two prevailing processes of planetesimal formation are proposed. The first is the gravitational instability of a dust layer (e.g., Safronov 1969, Hayashi 1972, Goldreich and Ward 1973). The second is the growth through the mutual sticking of dust particles in a turbulent nebula (Weidenschilling and Cuzzi 1993, Stepinski and Valageas 1997). We consider the first one in this study. ...
متن کاملModeling the formation of in vitro filopodia.
Filopodia are bundles of actin filaments that extend out ahead of the leading edge of a crawling cell to probe its upcoming environment. In vitro experiments (Vignjevic et al. in J Cell Biol 160:951-962, 2003) have determined the minimal ingredients required for the formation of filopodia from the dendritic-like morphology of the leading edge. We model these experiments using kinetic aggregatio...
متن کاملChiari Formation: Atlantoaxial Instability is the Cause
The entity of Chiari formation was described by Hans Chiari in 1891 [1,2]. Since then the subject has been evaluated elaborately by a number of authors. However, it may only be correct to state that confusion in the understanding of pathogenesis and the nature of anomaly, significance of associated abnormal soft tissue and bone anomalies and more importa...
متن کاملDynamic buckling of actin within filopodia
Filopodia are active tubular structures protruding from the cell surface which allow the cell to sense and interact with the surrounding environment through repetitive elongation-retraction cycles. The mechanical behavior of filopodia has been studied by measuring the traction forces exerted on external substrates.(1) These studies have revealed that internal actin flow can transduce a force ac...
متن کاملCauses Filopodia Formation in Cultured Hippocampal Astrocytes
Can neurons induce surrounding glia to provide a more favorable microenvironment? Synapses and nerve growth cones have been showr. to release neurotransmitters (Hume et al. Nature 1983;305:632-634; Kater et al. Trends Neurosci. 1988;11:315-321; Young and PooNuture 1983;305:634-637) providing a possible mechanism for this type of control. The excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate induces an incr...
