In dieser Arbeit wird Spearfish, eine neue Methode zur distanzbasierten Inferenz von Genbäumen, entwickelt und getestet. Spearfish verwendet die paarweisen Distanzen der Gensequenzen, sowie die Distanzen der zugehörigen Spezies im Speziesbaum, in einem Clustering-Verfahren, um 10 Genbäume zu rekonstruieren. Der beste wird anschließend mithilfe eines statistischen Evaluierungsverfahrens ausgewählt. Auf allen getesteten simulierten Datensätzen konnte gezeigt werden, dass die von Spearfish inferierten Bäume durchschnittlich eine Distanz von 0,213 zum echten Genbaum besitzen. Damit ist es 2,18-mal genauer als Methoden wie RAxML-NG, welche den Speziesbaum nicht berücksichtigen. Spearfish ist 25,85% ungenauer, aber 49,63% schneller als GeneRax, eine der führenden Methoden, die Genbäume mithilfe ihres Speziesbaumes korrigieren. So kann Spearfish verwendet werden, um Startbäume für GeneRax zu rekonstruieren oder bei goßen Datensätzen sogar zu ersetzen.

As part of the BioHackathon Europe 2024, we here report on the progress that both project 19 and project 24 have made during the event. For the purpose of this report we will present the abstract of abstract of both projects and then dive deeper on what work was done during the BioHackathon.

Abstract (Expand)

Hot Jupiters are gas giant planets with orbital periods of a few days and are found in 0.1–1% of Sun-like stars. They are expected to be engulfed during their host star’s radial expansion on the red giant branch, which may account for observed rapidly rotating and chemically enriched giant stars. We performed 3D hydrodynamical simulations of hot Jupiter engulfment by a 1 M⊙, 4 R⊙ early red giant. Our ‘global’ simulations simultaneously resolve the stellar envelope and planetary structure, modelling the hot Jupiter as a polytropic gas sphere. The hot Jupiter spirals in due to ram-pressure drag. A substantial fraction of its mass is continuously ablated in this process, although the mass-loss rate is resolution dependent. We estimate that this could enhance the surface lithium abundance by up to ≈0.1 dex. The hot Jupiter is disrupted by a combination of ram pressure and tidal forces near the base of the convective envelope, with the deepest material penetrating to the radiative zone. The star experiences modest spin-up (∼1 km s−1), and engulfing a more massive companion may be required to produce a rapidly rotating giant. Drag heating near the surface and hydrogen recombination in the small amount of unbound ejecta recorded in the simulation could power an optical transient, although this needs to be confirmed by a calculation that has adequate resolution at the stellar surface.
