Weak gravitational flexion [PDF]
Flexion is the significant third-order weak gravitational lensing effect responsible for the weakly skewed and arc-like appearance of lensed galaxies. Here we demonstrate how flexion measurements can be used to measure galaxy halo density profiles and large-scale structure on non-linear scales, via galaxy-galaxy lensing, dark matter mapping and cosmic ...

Volitional Swimming Kinematics of Blacktip Sharks, Carcharhinus limbatus, in the Wild
Recent work showed that two species of hammerhead sharks operated as a double oscillating system, where frequency and amplitude differed in the anterior and posterior parts of the body. We hypothesized that a double oscillating system would be present in

THE MORPHO-FUNCTIONAL PECULIARITIES OF THE SYNSARCOSIS MUSCLES IN RED SQUIRRELS [PDF]
In terrestrial species, body propulsion is mostly performed via the pelvic limbs. In semiaquatic species, both pairs of limbs are used in swimming and diving, whereas in arboreal species, the pelvic limbs are used to maintain body stability.
