最新数据表明，这一环状尘带由晶体硅酸盐（如石英）以及不规则形态的尘粒构成。这些尘粒的大 小约为百万分之一米，以宇宙尘埃的标准来说，这已经相当大了，意味着它们经历了长时间的生长过 程。 实际上，这条环状致密尘带遮住了星云的中心恒星，即一颗类似太阳的恒星遗留下来的古老核心， 正是它为星云提供能量，使其发光。该恒星温度高达22万开尔文，是银河系中已知最炽热的行星状星云 中心恒星之一。 团队还发现，蝴蝶星云中既有在相对平静环境下形成的冷晶体，也有在剧烈环境下形成的无定形尘 埃，二者同时出现，为科学家理解行星基本材料如何聚集提供了关键证据。 科技日报讯 （记者张佳欣）英国卡迪夫大学团队利用詹姆斯·韦布空间望远镜（JWST）对蝴蝶星云 （NGC 6302）进行观测，揭示了其核心区域复杂的宇宙尘埃结构。相关论文8月26日发表于《皇家天文 学会月刊》，为研究地球及其他岩质行星的起源提供了重要参考。 蝴蝶星云位于天蝎座，距离地球约3400光年。它属于"双极星云"，也就是说它有两个向相反方向展 开的"气体叶片"，构成了蝴蝶的"翅膀"；而中间一条环状的致密尘带，则形成了蝴蝶的"身体"。 这次观测还发现碳基分子多环芳香烃，可能与生命 ...

该研究由瑞典隆德大学联合丹麦哥本哈根大学、美国纽约大学和英国剑桥大学共同完成。他们聚焦 于一类名为LINE-1（L1）的转座子，这类重复序列可在基因组中移动，曾被认为具有潜在破坏性且难 以研究。研究团队此次利用诱导多能干细胞和脑类器官，即在实验室中培育的微型人脑模型，结合 CRISPR基因编辑与高通量测序技术，选择性地让L1序列沉默，观察其对大脑发育的影响。 科技日报讯 （记者张梦然）长期以来，人类基因组中约98.5%的非编码DNA被视为"垃圾"，因为它 们缺乏明确功能。然而越来越多的研究表明，这些区域在基因调控、发育过程和进化中扮演着关键角 色。发表于最新一期《细胞·基因组学》的研究中，一个国际团队结合类器官与"基因魔剪"技术，阐明 了重复DNA序列——特别是被称为"跳跃基因"的转座子，如何在人类大脑早期发育中发挥积极作用。 该研究为深入理解脑部疾病提供了全新视角。 研究发现，这些重复序列并非如过去认为的那样"无用"，而是在人类干细胞中具有活跃功能。当L1 被关闭后，相关基因的表达出现紊乱，脑类器官的正常生长也受到显著干扰。这表明L1转座子在调控 神经发育过程中发挥着重要作用。从进化角度看，这类活动可能有助 ...
