Stellar evolution through the ages: period variations in galactic RRab stars as derived from the GEOS database and TAROT telescopes [PDF]
The theory of stellar evolution can be more closely tested if we have the opportunity to measure new quantities. Nowadays, observations of galactic RR Lyr stars are available on a time baseline exceeding 100 years.

A survey of generic names in Rubiaceae (Gentianales) with notes on context and patterns in naming
Abstract Rubiaceae is one of the most diverse angiosperm families and consequently is the topic of much systematic research. Plenty of literature exists on the familial, tribal, and species level; however, a comprehensive overview of the names at the generic level is lacking. The aim of this study is to present a survey of all names and designations at

BaNa: a noise resilient fundamental frequency detection algorithm for speech and music [PDF]
Fundamental frequency (F0) is one of the essential features in many acoustic related applications. Although numerous F0 detection algorithms have been developed, the detection accuracy in noisy environments still needs improvement.

On the use of Neumann's principle for the calculation of the polarizability tensor of nanostructures
The polarizability measures how the system responds to an applied electrical field. Computationally, there are many different ways to evaluate this tensorial quantity, some of which rely on the explicit use of the external perturbation and require ...

States of affairs and our connection with the good
Abstract Abstractionists claim that the only bearers of intrinsic value are abstract, necessarily existing states of affairs. I argue that abstractionism cannot succeed. Though we can model concrete goods such as lives, projects, and outcomes with abstract states, conflating models of goods with the goods themselves has surprising and unattractive ...
