We present a catalog of distances for 19544 K giants drawn from LAMOST DR8. Most them are located in the halo Milky Way up to ~120~kpc. There 15% without SDSS photometry, which we supplements with Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) photometry calibrated photometric system. The possible contamination red clumps/horizontal branch removed according metallicities and colors before distance determination. Combining ...

ABSTRACT We present a study of the relationships and environmental dependencies between stellar mass, star formation rate, gas metallicity for more than 700 galaxies in groups up to redshift 0.35 from Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. To identify main drivers, our sample was analysed as function group-centric distance, projected galaxy number density, mass. By using control samples 16 000...

Compared to starburst galaxies, normal star forming galaxies have been shown to display a much larger dispersion of the dust attenuation at fixed reddening through studies of the IRX-β diagram (the IR/UV ratio “IRX” versus the UV color “β”). To investigate the causes of this larger dispersion and attempt to isolate second parameters, we have used GALEX UV, ground-based optical, and Spitzer infr...

background hygiene and maintenance of removable prostheses are very important for the oral health. elderly patients are not capable of this affair since they might have diseases in addition to being old; thus, they require new alternative methods. objectives the purpose of this study was to compare the disinfecting effects of three substances, water, normal saline and denture cleaning tablets c...

conceptual metaphor is the most prominent achievements in cognitive linguistics and cognitive semantics. based on this theory, most of the parts of our vision system and mindset is naturally metaphorical, which structures our way of thinking and understanding. therefore, our understanding has strong relationship in all aspects, and since the ethical implications are naturally abstract, metaphor...
