Current Biology, 2005 What makes us humans so special? Our language, our genes, our culture, our cognitive skills? At the Max-Planck-Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, psychologists, linguists and biologists tackle this old question in a truly multidisciplinary way. Their results have implications not just for our understanding of human evolution--they also

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 In prior work we found that precise approximation of the continuity constraint is crucial for accurate propagation of tracer data when advected through a background incompressible velocity field (Sime et al., 2021, https://doi.org/10.1029/2020gc009349 ...

Metallicity of solar-type stars with debris discs and planets [PDF]
, 2012 Around 16% of the solar-like stars in our neighbourhood show IR-excesses due to debris discs and a fraction of them are known to host planets. We aim to determine in a homogeneous way the metallicity of a sample of stars with known debris discs and ...

Burying Earth's Primitive Mantle in the Slab Graveyard
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 The evolution of mantle composition can be viewed as a process of destruction whereby the initial chemical state is overprinted and reworked with time.

, 2002 Most extrasolar planets are observed to have eccentricities much larger than those in the solar system. Some of these planets have sibling planets, with comparable masses, orbiting around the same host stars.

Testing the Metal of Late-Type Kepler Planet Hosts with Iron-Clad Methods [PDF]
, 2013 It has been shown that F, G, and early K dwarf hosts of Neptune-sized planets are not preferentially metal-rich. However, it is less clear whether the same holds for late K and M dwarf planet hosts. We report metallicities of Kepler targets and candidate

Stephen Hawking’s Warning on Contacting Aliens: A Physics Perspective on the Intelligence Trap [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Physics and EngineeringThe search for extraterrestrial intelligence is a fascinating and important endeavor, but it raises significant ethical and safety concerns. In the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, scientists use knowledge of physics to identify potential ...

A more advanced theoretical model of the sphere earth's EM in a foreign homogeneous EM field
Vojnotehnički Glasnik, 2023 Introduction/purpose: The paper describes a more advanced theoretical model of the Earth's EM field based on two-component hypotheses. A defined mathematical model that shows the rotation of the magnetically conducting sphere of Tthe magnetization M ...
