Astronomers have a new explanation for why filaments emanating from galaxy NGC 1275 can persist for millions of years.
UCSF scientists have discovered that a tiny filament extending from cells, until recently regarded as a remnant of evolution, may play a role in the most common malignant brain tumor in children. The ...
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27 (UPI) -- U.S. scientists say they've determined the most common childhood brain tumor is linked to tiny cell filaments once dismissed as vestiges of evolution.
... the two clusters is aligned along our line-of-sight, so that the entire emission from the filament is concentrated in a small region of the sky, thereby making its detection possible. Previous ...
