Ólöf the Rich and a Cloth from Svalbarð, Iceland
About fifteen illustrated cloths have been preserved from medieval times in Iceland. One of them is an antependium from Svalbarð church on Svalbarðsströnd. The embroidered iconography on it is believed to depict the story of John the Apostle, who was the

Nonlinear Bias of Cosmological Halo Formation in the Early Universe [PDF]
We present estimates of the nonlinear bias of cosmological halo formation, spanning a wide range in the halo mass from $\sim 10^{5} M_\odot$ to $\sim 10^{12} M_\odot$, based upon both a suite of high-resolution cosmological N-body simulations and ...

Halo and subhalo demographics with Planck cosmological parameters: Bolshoi–Planck and MultiDark–Planck simulations [PDF]
We report and provide fitting functions for the abundance of dark matter halos and subhalos as a function of mass, circular velocity, and redshift from the new Bolshoi- Planck and MultiDark-PlanckCDM cosmological simulations, based on the Planck ...

A Redefinition of the Halo Boundary Leads to a Simple yet Accurate Halo Model of Large Scale Structure [PDF]
We present a model for the halo--mass correlation function that explicitly incorporates halo exclusion. We assume that halos trace mass in a way that can be described using a single scale-independent bias parameter. However, our model exhibits scale dependent biasing due to the impact of halo-exclusion, the use of a ``soft'' (i.e. not infinitely sharp)

Mass Models for Spiral Galaxies from 2-D Velocity Maps
We model the mass distributions of 40 high surface brightness spiral galaxies inside their optical radii, deriving parameters of mass models by matching the predicted velocities to observed velocity maps.

THE SHAPE OF THE INNER MILKY WAY HALO FROM OBSERVATIONS OF THE PAL 5 AND GD–1 STELLAR STREAMS [PDF]
We constrain the shape of the Milky Way’s halo by dynamical modeling of the observed phase-space tracks of the Pal 5 and GD–1 tidal streams. We find that the only information about the potential gleaned from the tracks of these streams are precise ...

The Use and Complications of Halo Gravity Traction in Children with Scoliosis
Scoliosis is one of the most frequent spine deformities encountered in children and is regularly discovered after 15 years of age with a girls to boys ratio of 2:1. Vertebral arthrodesis involves both short and long term complications.

An accurate halo model for fitting non-linear cosmological power spectra and baryonic feedback models [PDF]
We present an optimized variant of the halo model, designed to produce accurate matter power spectra well into the non-linear regime for a wide range of cosmological models.

Reexamination of Mysticism in the Principles of Persian Miniatures Representing Muhammad’s (P.B.U.H.) Ascension [PDF]
One can observe many Islamic and mystic representations in Persian miniatures the most salient of which are scenes depicting the Muhammad’s (P.B.U.H.) ascension (Miraj).
