From voids to filaments: environmental transformations of galaxies in the SDSS

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the impact of filament and void environments on galaxies, looking for residual effects beyond the known relations with environment density. We quantified the host environment of galaxies as the distance to the spine of the nearest filament,

Small Dwarf Galaxies Within Larger Dwarfs: Why Some Are Luminous While Most Go Dark [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We consider the possibility that the Magellanic Clouds were the largest members of a group of dwarf galaxies that entered the Milky Way (MW) halo at late times. Seven of the eleven brightest satellites of the MW may have been part of this system.

Ground Zero – the socio-political minefield of symbolic architecture

open access: yesArchitecture_MPS, 2013
Daniel Libeskind is today one of the architecture profession’s media elite. He took up his position in the list of ‘super star architects’ twenty ago and has remained in the spotlight of the press ever since.

Quenching of Massive Disk Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
A rare population of massive disk galaxies have been found to invade the red sequence dominated by early-type galaxies. The formation and origins of these red/quenched massive disk galaxies have recently gained great interest.

The orientation of galaxy pairs with filamentary structures: dependence on morphology

open access: yes, 2018
Aims. With the aim of performing an analysis of the orientations of galaxy pair systems with respect to the underlying large-scale structure, we study the alignment between the axis connecting the pair galaxies and the host cosmic filament where the pair

La arquitectura deconstructivista como fenómeno político. Un recorrido analítico a través de sus emplazamientos

open access: yesAcademia XXII, 2017
Este trabajo tiene como propósito explorar y reflexionar la configuración contemporánea de los mecanismos de ejercicio del poder, de control y vigilancia inscritos en la arquitectura llamada deconstructivista.

The Magellanic Group and the Seven Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The Magellanic Clouds were the largest members of a group of dwarf galaxies that entered the Milky Way (MW) halo at late times. This group, dominated by the LMC, contained ~4% of the mass of the Milky Way prior to its accretion and tidal disruption, but ~

Allegory as language: narration and representation in the work of Daniel Libeskind

open access: yesEGA, 2014
One of the most commonly used resources as a project strategy in contemporary architecture is allegory, understood in terms of “speaking about the other.” Allegory transforms what one feels or experiences, in architecture by embodying and reviving the ...

Phylogenomics reveals the timescale of diversification in Amblycera

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 540-553, July 2025.
Next‐generation sequencing changes the higher taxonomy of Amblycera (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Families Trimenoponidae and Gyropidae merge into Gyropidae; Trinotonidae is a separate family; several genera are paraphyletic. The ancestral host of Amblycera was likely a bird; Amblycera switched to mammals twice.

Galaxy pairs align with galactic filaments

open access: yes, 2015
Context. Gravitational collapse theory and numerical simulations suggest that the velocity field within large-scale galaxy filaments is dominated by motions along the filaments. Aims.
