On the origin of the chemical bimodality of disc stars: a tale of merger and migration [PDF]
The Milky Way’s (MW) stellar disc exhibits a bimodality in the [Fe/H] versus [α/Fe] plane, showing a distinct high- and low-α sequences whose origin is still under debate.

The Linear Skew-t Distribution and Its Properties
The aim of this expository paper is to present the properties of the linear skew-t distribution, which is a specific example of a symmetry modulated-distribution.

Urbanization affects peak timing, prevalence, and bimodality of influenza pandemics in Australia: Results of a census-calibrated model [PDF]
Simulations associate urbanization with earlier peaks, higher peak prevalence, and shifting bimodality of pandemics in Australia. We examine salient trends of influenza pandemics in Australia, a rapidly urbanizing nation.

Galaxy bimodality due to cold flows and shock heating [PDF]
We address the origin of the robust bimodality observed in galaxy properties about a characteristic stellar mass ∼3 x 10 10 M ⊙ . Less massive galaxies tend to be ungrouped blue star forming discs, while more massive galaxies are typically grouped red ...

Bimodal optical computers [PDF]
Analog optical solutions of numerical problems tend to be fast, simple, and inaccurate. Digital optical or electronic solutions to the same problems tend to be slower, harder, and more accurate. In circumstances outlined here, hybrid analog-digital systems can be built which give the accuracy of digital solutions with intermediate degrees of speed and ...

Environmental Triggers of lrgA Expression in Streptococcus mutans
The cidAB and lrgAB operons of Streptococcus mutans encode proteins that are structurally similar to the bacteriophage lambda family of holin-antiholin proteins, which are believed to facilitate cell death in other bacterial species.

SDSS-IV MaNGA : stellar angular momentum of about 2300 galaxies: unveiling the bimodality of massive galaxy properties [PDF]
We measure λRe, a proxy for galaxy specific stellar angular momentum within one effective radius, and the ellipticity, e, for about 2300 galaxies of all morphological types observed with integral field spectroscopy as part of the MaNGA survey, the ...

The bimodal spiral galaxy surface brightness distribution [PDF]
We have assessed the significance of Tully and Verheijen's (1997) bimodal Ursa Major Cluster spiral galaxy near-infrared surface brightness distribution, focussing on whether this bimodality is simply an artifact of small number statistics.
