Topological Methods for the Analysis of Solar Magnetic Fields

The solar coronal magnetic field is anchored to a complex distribution of photospheric flux consisting of sunspots and magnetic elements.Coronal activity such as flares, BAGS eruptions and general heating is often attributed to the manner in which the coronal field responds to photospheric motions.A number of powerful techniques have been developed

Scedosporium apiospermum, Scedosporium aurantiacum, Scedosporium minutisporum and Lomentospora prolificans: a comparative study of surface molecules produced by conidial and germinated conidial cells

BACKGROUND Scedosporium/Lomentospora species are opportunistic mould pathogens, presenting notable antifungal resistance.OBJECTIVES/METHODS We analysed the conidia and germinated conidia of S.apiospermum (Sap), S.aurantiacum (Sau), S.minutisporum (Smi) and L.prolificans (Lpr) by scanning electron microscopy and exposition of surface molecules by fl
