ABSTRACT Hotel California is part of a network of open‐air Neanderthal sites located in the Sierra de Atapuerca (Burgos, Spain). In this study, we examine the technology of the lithic assemblages recovered from this site's archaeological levels 3 to 7, which are characterised by the use of local raw materials, non‐hierarchical centripetal exploitation ...

Property rights and contracts were important to the legal foundations of the Spanish Empire from the sixteenth century. The recognition of the property rights of indigenous people was part of the legal foundations of empire, but offered weak protection from the commercial logic of imperialism.

Multiple Angle Observations Would Benefit Visible Band Remote Sensing Using Night Lights
Abstract The spatial and angular emission patterns of artificial and natural light emitted, scattered, and reflected from the Earth at night are far more complex than those for scattered and reflected solar radiation during daytime. In this commentary, we use examples to show that there is additional information contained in the angular distribution of

Iberian Neanderthals in forests and savannahs
Abstract This article aims to delve into the reality of glacial refuges of forests and tree species (including conifers, mesothermophilous angiosperms and xerothermic scrub) during the cold dry phases of the Iberian Pleistocene in which there is evidence of occupation of Middle Palaeolithic people.

Fern spore dispersal: A methodological review and experimental field study
Abstract Spore dispersal is one of the most important but perhaps the least investigated and understood processes in determining the geographical distribution of fern species. After a methodological review of the aerobiology of fern spores, we examined the impact of spore characteristics and meteorological factors on their airborne dispersal.

Multicomponent Synthesis of Fluorine‐Containing Bioactive Compounds and Drugs
Multicomponent reactions are robust synthetic tools to assamble complex polyheterocycles and other interesting molecular architectures with potential application in medicinal chemistry, including their fluorine‐containing analogues. Fluorine atoms placed strategically into bioactive molecules often enhance essential pharmacokinetic parameters like ...

The MFM‐300(M) series is investigated as a fluorescent platform for SO2 detection, highlighting how the nature of metal centers modulates fluorescence emission. MFM‐300(Al) displays the brightest emission and strongest response. Experimental and computational studies reveal distinct quenching mechanisms depending on the metal center, highlighting the ...

Cost‐Effective Paraffin Particles‐Based Thermochromic Composites for Smart Windows and Greenhouses
Polymer nanocomposite films undergo thermally induced transparent‐to‐opaque transition through the refractive index matching/mismatching between the embedded paraffin particles in their solid and liquid states and the polymer matrix. The coatings are highly transparent, show large transmittance modulation, high stability to humidity and UV light ...

A number of dihydroxyl‐quinolines obtained from CADMA‐chem protocol are tested as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase enzyme, an important target for therapies, in the framework of molecular dynamics simulations. Energetic and structural analysis of the trajectories allow the identification of dq1368 (3,4 dihydroxyl‐quinoline‐8‐carboxylic acid methane ...

Pair and higher‐order mutual information measures in many‐particle (N$N$) coupled quantum oscillators can be tuned by using ω=N−α$\omega =N^{-\alpha }$ one‐body potential intensities. Critical points appear in the measures as N$N$ is varied, when α$\alpha$ is a fractional value.
