In silico PASS-Assisted Biological Activity Predictions of a Phytoconstituent Astilbin isolated from Thelypteroid fern Sphaerostephanos arbuscula (Willd.) Holttum
Abstract: Pteridophytes are the most important land plants with enormous medicinal properties. The medicinal properties of this group of plants mainly depend upon the numerous phytoconstituents present inside the plants. In the present study, the biological activity spectra of a phytoconstituent Astilbin isolated from Thelypteroid fern Sphaerostephanos arbuscula was predicted using computer-aided program—Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances (PASS). The PASS predicted activity of Astilbin exhibited its various probable activities (Pa). …

Gravitational Wave Astronomy (2015–2026): From Historic Discoveries to Quantum Detection Frontiers
Abstract: Since the landmark detection of GW150914 by the LIGO Scientific Collaboration in 2015, gravitational wave (GW) astronomy has transitioned from a theoretical frontier to a robust observational science. This breakthrough confirmed a major prediction of General Relativity and inaugurated an entirely new method for observing the universe. Over the past decade, continuous upgrades to ground-based interferometers such as LIGO, Virgo Collaboration, and KAGRA have dramatically improved detector sensitivity, enabling the …
