Gondolo, Paolo | AGAPE, a microlensing search in the direction of M31: status report | The M31 galaxy in Andromeda is the nearest large galaxy after the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds. It is a giant galaxy, roughly 2 times as large as our Milky Way, and has its own halo. As pointed by some of us [1, 2] and independantly by A. Crotts [3], M31 provides a rich field of stars to searc... | AGAPE; Andromeda Gravitational Amplification Pixel Experiment; Microlensing; MACHO; Massive compact halo objects | 1995 |

Gondolo, Paolo | AGAPE: a search for dark matter in M31 by microlensing effects on unresolved stars | M 31 is a very tempting target for a microlensing search of compact objects in galactic haloes. It is the nearest large galaxy, it probably has its own dark halo, and its tilted position with respect to the line of sight provides an unmistakable signature of microlensing. However most stars of M 31... | M31; AGAPE; Pixel method; Galaxy; Halo; Cosmology; Gravitational lensing | 1997 |

Gondolo, Paolo | AGAPEROS: searching for microlensing in the LMC with the pixel method. I. Data treatment and pixel light curves production | Recent surveys monitoring millions of light curves of resolved stars in the LMC have discovered several microlensing events. Unresolved stars could however signi _x000C_cantly contribute to the microlensing rate towards the LMC. Monitoring pixels, as opposed to individual stars, should be able to ... | Data analysis techniques; Halo; Galaxies; Gravitational lensing; Pixel method; Large Magellanic Cloud; LMC | 1999 |

Ehleringer, James R. ; Cerling, Thure E. | Aberrant water homeostasis detected by stable isotope analysis | While isotopes are frequently used as tracers in investigations of disease physiology (i.e., 14C labeled glucose), few studies have examined the impact that disease, and disease-related alterations in metabolism, may have on stable isotope ratios at natural abundance levels.

Gondolo, Paolo | Aberration features in directional dark matter detection | The motion of the Earth around the Sun causes an annual change in the mag-nitude and direction of the arrival velocity of dark matter particles on Earth, in a way analogous to aberration of stellar light.
