Context. Molecular filaments and hubs have received special attention recently thanks to new studies showing their key role in star formation. While the (column) density velocity structures of both been carefully studied, magnetic field (B-field) properties yet be characterized. Consequently, B-fields formation evolution hub-filament systems is not well constrained. Aims. We aim understand B-field its interplay with turbulence gravity dynamical NGC 6334 filament network that harbours...
Class II methanol masers are signs of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs). Recent findings show that MYSO accretion bursts cause flares these masers. Thus, maser monitoring can be used to identify such bursts. Burst-induced SED changes provide valuable information on a very intense phase high-mass star formation. In mid-January 2019, flare the G358.93-0.03 was reported. ALMA and SMA imaging resolved core forming region proved association with brightest continuum source MM1. However, no...

Summary Hippocampal synaptic function and plasticity deteriorate with age, often resulting in learning memory deficits. As MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of neuronal protein expression, we examined whether miRNAs may contribute to this age‐associated decline hippocampal function. We first compared the small RNA transcriptome tissues from young old mice. Among 269 miRNAs, 80 were differentially expressed (≥ twofold) among age groups. focused on 36 upregulated mice those The...
