Nature's Complexity Alive: Farewell to Several Unificatory Cosmological Arguments for Monism

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Throughout history, numerous thinkers have claimed that monism—in the form of priority monism, existence monism, monotheistic monism, or versions that posit an extra‐cosmic ultimate being—theoretically surpasses pluralism, above all by positing a unified universe.

Galaxy Mergers Classification Using CNNs Trained on Sérsic Models, Residuals, and Raw Images

The Astrophysical Journal
Galaxy mergers are crucial for understanding galaxy evolution, and with large upcoming datasets, automated methods, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are essential for efficient detection.

Overmassive and Undermassive Massive Black Holes: The Role of Environment and Gravitational-Wave Recoils

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Understanding the connection between galaxy properties and their central massive black holes (MBHs) is key to unveiling their co-evolution. We use the L-Galaxies-BH semi-analytical model and the Millennium suite of simulations to investigate the physical

A C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module links wound‐induced evaporative cooling to tissue repair in plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
A model of the C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module in plant wound healing. Summary Repairing damaged tissues is essential for the survival of all organisms. In plants, tissue injury rapidly triggers defense and repair programs. However, the molecular mechanisms linking early injury cues to the later stage of wound repair remain ...

Azimuthal Misalignments in Stellar Warp Structure as Dynamical Tracers of Mergers in Milky Way–like Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We investigate the origin of warps in stellar disks using high-resolution Milky Way analogs from the IllustrisTNG50 simulation. Focusing on galaxies that experienced a major merger, we identify a characteristic azimuthal misalignment between the warp ...

The impact of cluster mergers on galaxy properties

Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia
Abstract The impact of galaxy cluster mergers on the properties of the resident galaxies remains poorly understood. In this paper, we investigate the effects of merging environments on star formation (SF) activity in nearby clusters (

Ecological Filtering by Tuber Compartments Shapes Stable Core Microbiomes That Underpin Potato Plant Growth Across Environments

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harnessing plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture requires understanding not only whether they can boost crop performance, but also how ecological processes govern their assembly, stability, and functional contributions across environments.

Radial Distributions of Star Formation and Gas-phase Metallicity in Spiral–Elliptical Galaxy Pairs

The Astrophysical Journal
Using integral-field spectroscopy from the fourth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory, we investigate the radial distributions of the star formation rates (SFRs) and gas-phase metallicities in spiral ...

How Many Worlds Could There Be? David Lewis and Advanced Modalizing

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced modalizing, namely, possibilities and necessities concerning modal space itself, is problematic for a Lewis‐style analysis of modality. A popular solution, proposed by Divers, postulates explicit semantic clauses for a collapse of advanced modalizing, to the conclusion that all such matters are, if true in the first place, both ...

JWST Unveils the Bimodal Nature of Lyα Emitters at 3 < z < 7: Pristine versus Merger-driven Populations

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a systematic study of merging galaxies among Lyα emitters (LAEs) using James Webb Space Telescope/NIRCam high-resolution imaging data. From a large sample of 817 spectroscopically confirmed LAEs at 3  6 to 70% at z
