Humanimals: A Socio‐Ecological Reading of the Marseille Plague of 1720

open access: yesJournal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 285-301, September 2025.
Abstract The aim of this article is to return to a small number of historically significant first‐person testimonies of the Marseille epidemic of 1720 in order to analyse in detail their construction and depiction of human exceptionality as a form of life in a time of plague.

Precision Photochemistry: Every Photon Counts

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 35, August 25, 2025.
Every photon used in a photochemical reaction has the power to dictate the outcome of the reaction. We present a framework whereby understanding the role that each photon has in a reaction can enablechemists to realise the true power of photochemistry and dramatically improve reaction outcomes.We coin this field Precision Photochemistry.

Not All Birds of the Same Feather: A Systematic Review of Ecosystem Services and Disservices in Horticulture

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Wild birds can provide essential benefits and cause significant harm in food production systems, commonly framed as ecosystem services and disservices, respectively. We conducted a systematic review of the literature on avian ecosystem services and disservices in horticultural systems, analysing 251 studies published between 1912 and 2023 ...

Lungfish‐like antero‐labial tooth addition and amphibian‐like enameloid‐enamel transition in the coronoid of a Devonian stem actinopterygian

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 418-441, September/October 2025.
The tooth patterning logic, which cannot be inferred from surface morphology, is revealed by visualizing buried tooth remnants in 3D. The primary teeth are added labially, initially organized in radial rows, which transition into linear rows where the coronoid becomes slender.

Managing time: speeding up and slowing down in the immigration bail court

open access: yesJournal of Law and Society, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 434-455, September 2025.
Abstract This article draws on recent theoretical interventions into the relationship between time and law to make sense of the role of time in the context of immigration bail hearings in the United Kingdom. It presents an analysis of the ways in which the Home Office, the First‐Tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber), and immigration judges ...

Impact of Raman Scattering on SIF Retrievals From Hyperspectral Satellite Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract Solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) retrieved from spaceborne measurements is widely used as an indicator of vegetation activity. However, this weak emission can be confused with the inelastic scattering component of sunlight that lacks distinctive Fraunhofer lines.

Are All Blue Stragglers Ap Stars?

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1976
SummaryA list of open clusters with blue stragglers studied for Ap characteristics is presented. In addition to previously published results new spectroscopic data are given of blue stragglers in the open cluster IC 4756 derived from ESO spectrograms taken in 1973. Preliminary conclusions concerning the status of Ap stars and blue stragglers are drawn.

The “dynamical clock”: dating the internal dynamical evolution of star clusters with Blue Straggler Stars

Rendiconti Lincei SCIENZE FISICHE E NATURALI, 2020
We discuss the observational properties of a special class of objects (the so-called “Blue Straggler Stars”, BSSs) in the framework of using this stellar population as probe of the dynamical processes occurring in high-density stellar systems.

Blue Straggler Stars: Setting up a Dynamical Clock for Open Clusters

Bulletin de la Société royale des sciences de Liège
Blue straggler stars are late bloomers that are bluer and brighter than the main sequence turnoff stars on a color-magnitude diagram of a cluster. Being a massive population compared to their other cluster siblings, their sedimentation level has been ...
