Detection of Earth-impacting asteroids with the next generation all-sky surveys [PDF]
Icarus, 2009 We have performed a simulation of a next generation sky survey's (Pan-STARRS 1) efficiency for detecting Earth-impacting asteroids. The steady-state sky-plane distribution of the impactors long before impact is concentrated towards small solar elongations (Chesley and Spahr, 2004) but we find that there is interesting and potentially exploitable ...

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pedicellariae are small appendages on the surface of the echinoid test, involved in defence, cleaning, and locomotion. Pedicellariae in three species of camarodont sea urchins common in UK waters (Paracentrotus lividus [Lamarck, 1816], Psammechinus miliaris [P.L.S Müller, 1771] and Echinus esculentus [Linnaeus, 1758]) are the focus of this ...

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Recent advances in AI enable the automatic generation of visualizations directly from textual prompts using agentic workflows. However, visualizations produced via one‐shot generative methods often suffer from insufficient quality, typically requiring a human in the loop to refine the outputs.

One‐more‐vertex Next‐Event Estimation with Hierarchical Geometry Sampling
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Robust next‐event estimation (NEE) remains a challenge in scenes characterized by sparse or small‐scale geometry where indirect illumination is the primary transport mechanism. In these scenes, traditional path construction, which relies on local directional sampling, often fails to find intersections with the sparse geometry, and standard NEE

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

A case of atypical nocardia asteroides sclerouveitis resistant to fourth-generation fluoroquinolones [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Oftalmologia, 2016 ABSTRACT We describe an unusual case of Nocardia spp scleritis in a health girl resistant to topical fourth-generation fluoroquinolones. Clinically, there was only partial response of the scleritis to initial therapy. Treatment was changed to meropenem intravenously and topical amikacin.

Description and terrestrial ages of the Calama Area Meteorite Collection (Atacama Desert, Chile)
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract We present a comprehensive study of a meteorite collection from the Atacama Desert (Chile), the driest and most climatically stable desert in the world. This collection includes meteorites from three adjacent Dense Collection Areas (DCAs) in the northern part of the Atacama Desert: Calama, Sierra Gorda, and Chug Chug, referred to as the ...

Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future
The Russian Review, EarlyView.Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.
