Recoiling Supermassive Black Holes: a search in the Nearby Universe [PDF]

, 2014
The coalescence of a binary black hole can be accompanied by a large gravitational recoil due to anisotropic emission of gravitational waves. A recoiling supermassive black hole (SBH) can subsequently undergo long-lived oscillations in the potential well

Epistemic diversity and the politics of knowledge in plant disease management: Insights from the Xylella fastidiosa epidemic in southern Italy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Xylella fastidiosa is a major plant pathogen affecting crops such as grapes, citrus, almonds, and olives, with potentially severe consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods worldwide. This paper examines the conflict around the management of the X. fastidiosa outbreak affecting olive trees in southern Italy.

Birth of massive black hole binaries [PDF]

, 2007
If massive black holes (BHs) are ubiquitous in galaxies and galaxies experience multiple mergers during their cosmic assembly, then BH binaries should be common albeit temporary features of most galactic bulges.

Massive Binary Black Holes in the Cosmic Landscape

, 2009
Binary black holes occupy a special place in our quest for understanding the evolution of galaxies along cosmic history. If massive black holes grow at the center of (pre-)galactic structures that experience a sequence of merger episodes, then dual black

How vulnerable are amphibians to climate change? A mechanistic perspective

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Amphibians are frequently identified as highly vulnerable to climate change, yet the mechanisms driving this sensitivity remain uncertain. Approaches that explicitly link physiological mechanisms to environmental variation provide powerful tools for forecasting climate ...

Elliptical Galaxies and Bulges of Disk Galaxies: Summary of Progress and Outstanding Issues

, 2015
This is the summary chapter of a review book on galaxy bulges. Bulge properties and formation histories are more varied than those of ellipticals. I emphasize two advances: 1 - "Classical bulges" are observationally indistinguishable from ellipticals ...

Mothbox and Mothbot: Automated light trap and data processing system for scalable insect monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects represent the most diverse group of organisms on Earth and comprise the majority of known species; yet they are seldom accounted for in large‐scale biodiversity monitoring systems and conservation planning. We have developed the Mothbox—an open source automated light trap that makes insect monitoring accessible to non‐specialists and ...

Understanding Dwarf Galaxies in order to Understand Dark Matter

, 2018
Much progress has been made in recent years by the galaxy simulation community in making realistic galaxies, mostly by more accurately capturing the effects of baryons on the structural evolution of dark matter halos at high resolutions.

Prioritizing bat roosts for conservation with a global multicriteria bat roost priority index based on community science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.
