Simulations of X-ray spectral/timing properties in a propagation model of variability of accreting black holes [PDF]
A phenomenological model of X-ray variability of accreting black holes is considered, where the variable emission is attributed to multiple active regions/perturbations moving radially towards the central black hole.

ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

Advocating better habitat use and selection models in bird ecology [PDF]
Studies on habitat use and habitat selection represent a basic aspect of bird ecology, due to its importance in natural history, distribution, response to environmental changes, management and conservation.

The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

ABSTRACT Objective Aversive (“dark”) personality traits are traditionally studied as predictors of harmful or manipulative behavior, yet their underlying cognitive‐affective structures remain underexplored. This research investigates whether the Dark Core of personality (D)—the common aversive essence of all dark traits—is associated with primal world ...

Precise Measurement of the Spin Parameter of the Stellar-Mass Black Hole M33 X-7
In prior work, {\it Chandra} and Gemini-North observations of the eclipsing X-ray binary M33 X-7 have yielded measurements of the mass of its black hole primary and the system's orbital inclination angle of unprecedented accuracy.

European Identity and the Euro in Kosovo
ABSTRACT How can nationalist leaders stand for political independence and monetary sovereignty while embracing the use of a supra‐national currency? At first sight, unilateral euroisation—the de facto adoption of the euro instead of a national currency—seems inconsistent with the goals of nationalism and independence.

Environmental drivers of Greater Sage‐grouse population trends over 25 years in Idaho, USA
Greater Sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations have been in decline for decades across much of the US Intermountain West. However, findings from 25 years of lek counts in Idaho indicate that some populations are stable or even increasing ...

Male Agonistic Behavior on Atlantic Cod Spawning Grounds
The mating system of the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) has been described as a lek, a mating system where male–male aggressions are expected. However, observing aggressions directly in marine environments is challenging. Using accelerometer tags we show that male–male agonistic interactions, inferred from activity levels, are indeed present on natural ...

Measurement of the Transverse Polarization of Electrons Emitted in Free Neutron Decay
Both components of the transverse polarization of electrons emitted in the beta-decay of polarized, free neutrons have been measured. The T-odd, P-odd correlation coefficient quantifying the component perpendicular to the decay plane defined by neutron ...
