Hunting strategies, success, and sustainability: A case study in a community forest on the edge of Salonga National Park, DRC

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
In Central Africa, traditional hunting is central to the way of life of local communities. However, increasing demand for wild meat has raised concerns about the sustainability of this practice. With a year‐long analysis of hunting strategies and their impact at the outskirts of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo, we showed a ...

The High-mass X-Ray Binary Luminosity Functions of Dwarf Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
Drawing from the Chandra archive and using a carefully selected set of nearby dwarf galaxies, we present a calibrated high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) luminosity function in the low-mass galaxy regime and search for an already hinted at dependence on ...

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Swampland: The Cosmologist's Handbook to the String‐Theoretical Swampland Programme

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Dwarf galaxies:Important clues to galaxy formation

, 2003
The smallest dwarf galaxies are the most straight forward objects in which to study star formation processes on a galactic scale. They are typically single cell star forming entities, and as small potentials in orbit around a much larger one they are ...

PEARLS: A Potentially Isolated Quiescent Dwarf Galaxy with a Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distance of 30 Mpc

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
A wealth of observations have long suggested that the vast majority of isolated classical dwarf galaxies ( M _* = 10 ^7 –10 ^9 M _⊙ ) are currently star forming.

The Pointing Error Due To Laser Propagation in Space Plasma for TianQin Gravitational Wave Detection

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract TianQin, a space‐borne gravitational wave observatory, is designed to detect gravitational‐wave signals via laser interferometry. As the inhomogeneous space plasma surrounds the inter‐satellite laser links, the propagation of the laser in space plasma can introduce pointing error noise.

Antlia B: A Faint Dwarf Galaxy Member of the NGC 3109 Association [PDF]

, 2015
We report the discovery of Antlia B, a faint dwarf galaxy at a projected distance of ~72 kpc from NGC 3109 (M_V ~ -15 mag), the primary galaxy of the NGC 3109 dwarf association at the edge of the Local Group.

The VVVX quest for satellites around the Circinus galaxy

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The Circinus galaxy is the nearest type-2 Seyfert galaxy, located at a distance of 4.2 Mpc. Its environment is challenging to explore because of the low Galactic latitudes of its location, behind the disc of the Milky Way. Aims.
