The Visual Umwelt of primates and Hippocampal Representations of Space
Hippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Evolution sculpts the brain's sensory adaptations. Because these adaptations differ markedly across species, it is challenging for humans to fully comprehend how other animals perceive the world. For a nocturnal mouse, the subjective sensory world—its Umwelt—is dominated by odors, sounds, and textures, with visual input playing a secondary ...

Perspective Projection of an Ellipse and an Ellipsoid for Analytical View Factor Evaluation
Heat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 44-55, January 2026.ABSTRACT Radiative view factors are fundamental quantities for evaluating radiative heat transfer between different surfaces. While analytical expressions of view factors have been evaluated for various types of basic geometries, including circular disks and spheres, extending these solutions to more complex geometries, such as ellipses and ellipsoids ...

On the Stability Barrier of Hermite Type Discretizations of Advection Equations
Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT We establish a stability barrier for a class of high‐order Hermite‐type discretization of 1D advection equations underlying the hybrid‐variable (HV) and active flux (AF) methods. These methods approximate both cell averages and nodal solutions and evolve them in time simultaneously.

Nachtsicht ins All mit dem bloßen Auge: Sag mir, wie weit die Sterne steh'n
Physik in unserer Zeit, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 32-40, January 2026.Beim Blick in den Nachthimmel sehen wir ohne optische Hilfsmittel und abhängig von der lokalen Lichtverschmutzung viele Hundert bis maximal einige Tausend Sterne und auch einige Galaxien. Aber wie weit sind diese von uns entfernt? Und bis zu welchen maximalen Entfernungen können wir Objekte im Weltall mit dem bloßen Auge wahrnehmen?

Formation of Asteroid (16) Psyche by a Giant Impact
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche is the largest likely metal‐rich asteroid in the Solar System and the target of the NASA Psyche mission. The mission aims to determine whether the asteroid is the core of a differentiated planetesimal that lost its mantle via a giant impact.
