Enhanced Star Formation and Black Hole Accretion Rates in Galaxy Mergers in IllustrisTNG50

The Astrophysical Journal
Many theoretical and observational studies have suggested that galaxy mergers may trigger enhanced star formation or active galactic nucleus activity.

Counting Black Holes: The Cosmic Stellar Remnant Population and Implications for LIGO

, 2017
We present an empirical approach for interpreting gravitational wave signals of binary black hole mergers under the assumption that the underlying black hole population is sourced by remnants of stellar evolution.

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

Intermediate Mass Ratio Inspirals in Milky Way Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
A consequence of a nonzero occupation fraction of massive black holes (MBHs) in dwarf galaxies is that these MBHs can become residents of larger galaxy halos via hierarchical merging and tidal stripping.

Buried AGNs in Advanced Mergers:Mid-infrared color selection as a dual AGN finder

, 2017
A direct consequence of hierarchical galaxy formation is the existence of dual supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which may be preferentially triggered as active galactic nuclei (AGN) during galaxy mergers. Despite decades of searching, however, dual AGNs

Close Pairs as Proxies for Galaxy Cluster Mergers

, 2008
Galaxy cluster merger statistics are an important component in understanding the formation of large-scale structure. Unfortunately, it is difficult to study merger properties and evolution directly because the identification of cluster mergers in ...

Innovation for Sustainable Development: Assessing Sustainability‐Oriented Innovations in the UK Palm Oil Supply Chains

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research evaluates the adoption of Sustainability‐Oriented Innovations (SOIs) by UK food manufacturers, particularly in the palm oil sector. Despite the global palm oil industry's environmental and social impacts, such as deforestation and labour exploitation, empirical studies on SOIs are limited. This paper addressed this gap by mapping

Improving Cycle Life and Capacity Retention in PVMPO‖Li Dual‐Ion Lithium‐Organic Batteries Using an EC‐Free and FEC Additive Containing Electrolyte

Small Methods, EarlyView.
The major bottleneck of PVMPO‐based positive electrodes is electrode degradation during extended cycling with EC‐containing electrolytes. This issue is mitigated by using EC‐free electrolytes with FEC additives, which exhibit reduced interfacial resistance, fewer surface cracks, improved capacity retention, and suppressed electrode degradation, thereby
