Applying scale-free mass estimators to the Local Group in Constrained Local Universe Simulations [PDF]

, 2012
We use the recently proposed scale-free mass estimators to determine the masses of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) galaxy in a dark matter only Constrained Local UniversE Simulation (CLUES).

Resilience strategies of West African pastoralists in response to scarce forage resources

Pastoralism, 2021
Finding sufficient natural fodder resources to feed livestock has become a challenge for herders in the Sahel zone of Burkina Faso. Despite the existence of pastoral reserves, the issue of fodder shortage remains unsolved.

Neolithic Culture: the issues of interpretation

Археология евразийских степей
In Soviet science, the prevailing viewpoint was that the Neolithic culture corresponded to a group of related tribes. A.A. Formozov and M.V. Voyevodsky also distinguished larger communities: cultural areas, zones, provinces.

Fine structure of the red clump in Local Group galaxies [PDF]

, 1999
Some fine structures can nowadays be identified in the high-quality colour-magnitude diagrams (CMD) of Local Group galaxies. The clump of red giants, for instance, may present a significant colour spread, and extensions to both brighter and fainter ...

Far-infrared to centimeter emission of very nearby galaxies with archival data

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Compared to the well-studied infrared and radio domains, galaxy emission in the range from a few millimeters (mm) to centimeters (cm) (300−30 GHz) has been observed less frequently.

The Tidal Evolution of Local Group Dwarf Spheroidals

, 2007
(Abridged) We use N-body simulations to study the evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) driven by galactic tides. We adopt a cosmologically-motivated model where dSphs are approximated by a King model embedded within an NFW halo.

Weighing the Local Group in the Presence of Dark Energy [PDF]

, 2013
We revise the mass estimate of the Local Group (LG) when Dark Energy (in the form of the Cosmological Constant) is incorporated into the Timing Argument (TA) mass estimator for the Local Group (LG).

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

Defining a mood stabiliser: novel framework for research and clinical practice

BJPsych Open, 2018
The term ‘mood stabiliser’ is ill-defined and lacks clinical utility. We propose a framework to evaluate medications and effectively communicate their mood stabilising properties – their acute and prophylactic efficacy across the domains of mania and ...

Dwarf Spheroidal Satellite Formation in a Reionized Local Group [PDF]

, 2014
Dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies have emerged a powerful probe of small-scale dark matter clustering and of cosmic reionization. They exhibit structural and chemical continuity with dwarf irregular galaxies in the field and with spheroidal galaxies in
