Tracing the evolutionary history of the morpho‐anatomy of baculum in primates
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Animal morphology reflects both evolutionary history and present‐day adaptation. Male mammal copulatory structures such as the baculum (penile bone) are ideal for studying these processes because of their complexity and high interspecific variability. In primates, however, research has focused mostly on baculum length.

Unintegrated Gluon Distributions as Probability Densities for QCD Dynamical Entropy
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present a systematic procedure for constructing normalized transverse momentum probability distributions from phenomenological unintegrated gluon distributions (UGDs). These distributions provide the probabilistic foundation of the QCD dynamical entropy formalism and can be employed in the evaluation of other statistical observables.

Principal Component‐Based Classification of Blazar Candidates of Uncertain Type in the 4FGL/LAT
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We adopted principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and support vector machines (SVM), to study classification for a sample of 2708 Fermi blazars: 1142 BL Lac objects (BLLs), 759 flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), and 807 blazar candidates of uncertain type (BCUs).

Direct SMBH Formation Driven by Runaway Stellar Collisions in Globally Unstable Stellar Systems
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The fueling problem addresses the ultimate fate of the reservoirs of gas and stars driven into the deepest gravitational potential wells of galaxies, thus it may contain the Universe's densest concentrations of gas and stars. This raises a key question: does the infalling material collapse directly into a supermassive black hole, or can it ...

The Inka Khipu and Yupana: A Reply to Zen Vasconcellos and Rojas Gamarra (2026)
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A new analysis by Zen Vasconcellos and Rojas Gamarra offers a novel interpretation of the Inka devices used for calculating (yupana) and recording (khipu) numbers. They claim the Inka devices represented numbers neither positionally, with place value, as most researchers have assumed, nor additively, without place value, a possibility uniquely

The Bochum Survey of the Southern Galactic Disk: IV. Multi‐Band Photometry
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Southern Galactic Disk Survey (GDS) monitored a mosaic of 268 fields along a 6°‐wide stripe in the southern galactic disk from September 2010 to September 2019. These fields were observed between 21 and 407 times sim r′$$ {r}^{\prime } $$ultaneously in (8mag≲r′≲18mag$$ 8\kern0.6em \mathrm{mag}\lesssim {r}^{\prime}\lesssim 18\kern0.6em ...

Neutrino Oscillation in a Minimal Length Spacetime
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigate how neutrino oscillations are modified in a non‐commutative spacetime characterized by a minimal length scale, described by the Quesne–Tkachuk algebra. By incorporating the algebra's deformation parameter β$$ \beta $$ into the effective neutrino mass, we derive the two‐flavor oscillation probability in this non‐commutative ...
