The quasar HE 0047−1756, at z = 1.67, is found to be split into two images 1. ′′44 apart by an intervening galaxy acting as a gravitational lens. The flux ratio for the two components is roughly 3.5:1, depending slightly upon wavelength. The lensing galaxy is seen on images obtained at 800 nm and 2.1 μm; there is also a nearby faint object which may be responsible for some shear. The spectra of...

Abstract Introduction Narcolepsy type 1 is caused by selective loss of orexinergic neurons, resulting in poor maintenance sleep and wakefulness, emergence cataplexy. Orexinergic neurons innervate many brain regions, specific narcolepsy symptoms likely arise from dysfunction distinct regions. Orexin 2 receptors (OX2R) are expressed nearly all wake- REM sleep-regulatory OX2R agonists improve mous...
