Germanium‐Based Mid‐Infrared Integrated Photonics

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) spectral range is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum in which most of the molecules have vibrational and rotational resonances. Photonics integration in this wavelength range have thus seen a burst of interest in the recent years, mainly driven by applications related with the detection of chemical and biological ...

Are There Higher Electron Densities in Narrow Emission Line Regions of Type-1 AGNs than in Type-2 AGNs?

The Astrophysical Journal
In the manuscript, we check properties of electron densities n _e traced by flux ratio R _sii of [S ii ] λ 6716 Å to [S ii ] λ 6731 Å in narrow emission line regions (NLRs) between Type-1 active galactic nucleus (AGN) and Type-2 AGN in SDSS Data Release ...

The complex relationships between active galactic nuclei, bars, and bulges

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Via scaling relations, it is well known that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and bulges are linked. This link was thought to be driven by mergers, but recent studies show that secular processes are the dominant mechanism of supermassive black hole

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

Broad-line Regions behind Haze: The Intrinsic Shape of the Brγ Line and Its Origin in a Type 1 Seyfert Galaxy

The Astrophysical Journal
The broad-line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei is an essential component, yet its small size keeps its origin, structure, and kinematics uncertain.

Galactic bars and active galactic nucleus fuelling in the second half of cosmic history

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We investigate the role of galactic bars in fuelling and triggering active galactic nuclei (AGN) in disc galaxies up to z ∼ 0.8. We utilised a deep learning model, fine-tuned on Galaxy Zoo volunteer classifications, to identify (strongly and weakly ...

Chemical enrichment in LINERs from MaNGA

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Chemical abundance radial gradients provide key information on how the processes that affect chemical enrichment of the gas-phase interstellar medium (ISM) act at different galaxy scales. In the past decades, though there has been an increase in

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...
