THE RELATIVE ABUNDANCE OF COMPACT AND NORMAL MASSIVE EARLY-TYPE GALAXIES AND ITS EVOLUTION FROM REDSHIFT z ∼ 2 TO THE PRESENT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report on the evolution of the number density and size of early-type galaxies (ETGs) from z ∼ 2 to z ∼ 0. We select a sample of 563 massive (M > 1010 M☉), passively evolving (specific star formation rate 1.2 and z < 1.2, respectively).

Generating novel tennis racket shape concepts using a theoretical morphospace

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Statistical shape analysis, or morphometrics, is a technique commonly used in evolutionary biology to summarise a population of samples. Theoretical morphometrics extends the current population of samples into a theoretical space.

Discovery of an Ultraviolet Counterpart to an Ultrafast X-Ray Outflow in the Quasar PG 1211+143 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We observed the quasar PG 1211+143 using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope in 2015 April as part of a joint campaign with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Jansky Very Large Array.

The Ultra-fast Outflow of the Quasar PG 1211+143 as Viewed by Time-averaged Chandra Grating Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a detailed X-ray spectral study of the quasar PG 1211+143 based on Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) observations collected in a multi-wavelength campaign with UV data using the Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Origins

Conditional strategies and the evolution of cooperation in spatial public goods games

open access: yes, 2012
The fact that individuals will most likely behave differently in different situations begets the introduction of conditional strategies. Inspired by this, we study the evolution of cooperation in the spatial public goods game, where besides unconditional

A utilitarian antagonist: the zombie in popular video games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This article takes as its starting point the prevalence of the zombie in video games. I argue that, although the zombie games often superficially resemble filmic texts in their use of aesthetic and narrative, they must be understood, less as a set of ...

Game management and laboratories of game animal research in Ukraine for 100 years: transformations of ideas and institutions

open access: yesTheriologia Ukrainica
The study is devoted to the history of game management laboratories as one of the most obscure pages of Ukrainian theriology. The prerequisites for the formation of such laboratories as a system of applied research related primarily to ‘useful’ fauna are
