Article Synopsis
- The new calibration system for cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization uses a sparse wire grid to reflect polarized light, improving accuracy in measurements.
- A remote-controlled feature allows for regular calibration, which was previously not possible, utilizing electric actuators to adjust the wire grid's position.
- The system includes a motor for rotation and sensors to ensure precise monitoring, resulting in minimal systematic errors and planned installation in telescopes at Simons Observatory.
Chronic exercise training elicits adaptations in the heart that improve pump function and confer cardioprotection. To identify molecular mechanisms by which exercise training stimulates this favorable phenotype, a proteomic approach was employed to detect rat cardiac proteins that were differentially expressed or modified after exercise training. Exercise-trained rats underwent six weeks of progressive treadmill training five days/week, 0% grade, using an interval training protocol.
