The Evolution of Galaxy Groups and of Galaxies Therein [PDF]
, 2007 Properties of groups of galaxies depend sensitively on the algorithm for group selection, and even the most recent catalogs of groups built from redshift-space selection should suffer from projections and infalling galaxies. The cosmo-dynamical evolution of groups from initial Hubble expansion to collapse and virialization leads to a fundamental track (

Influence of Dynamical Friction on the Unstable Manifolds of Lagrange Points in Barred Galaxies
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some time ago the idea has been proposed that rings and spirals in barred galaxies are shaped by the unstable manifolds of the Lagrange points sitting near the ends of the bar. The topic of the present article is an investigation of whether the numerical support for this suggestion can be improved by the inclusion of dynamical friction into ...

, 2022 Galaxy clusters grow by accreting galaxies from the field and along filaments of the cosmic web. As galaxies are accreted they are affected by their local environment before they enter (pre-processing), and traverse the cluster potential. Observations that aim to constrain pre-processing are challenging to interpret because filaments comprise a ...

Direct SMBH Formation Driven by Runaway Stellar Collisions in Globally Unstable Stellar Systems
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The fueling problem addresses the ultimate fate of the reservoirs of gas and stars driven into the deepest gravitational potential wells of galaxies, thus it may contain the Universe's densest concentrations of gas and stars. This raises a key question: does the infalling material collapse directly into a supermassive black hole, or can it ...

Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies and the evolution of galaxies and active galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000 Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) are intriguing due to their continuum as well as emission line properties. The observed peculiar properties of the NLS1s are believed to be due to accretion rate close to Eddington limit. As a consequence, for a given luminosity, NLS1s have smaller black hole (BH) masses compared to normal Seyfert galaxies.

Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.

The Age of Questions: Truth Regimes and Subjectivity in the Era of Large Language Models
Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This essay explores how digital technologies shape subjectivity's infra‐political constitution, focusing on large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or Gemini within what philosophers, inspired by Michel Foucault, term the “digital truth regime.” After defining this regime, the essay identifies five key traits of LLMs: presentism in truth ...

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard for quantitative equine gait evaluation but are limited to experimental use. An instrumented hoof boot (IHB) with pressure sensors and an inertial measurement unit would allow clinicians to objectively assess kinetic parameters and gait symmetry.
