Nonstationary Optimal Paths and Tails of Prehistory Probability Density in Multistable Stochastic Systems [PDF]
The tails of prehistory probability density in nonlinear multistable stochastic systems driven by white Gaussian noise, which has been a subject of recent study, are analyzed by employing the concepts of nonstationary optimal fluctuations. Results of numerical simulations evidence that the prehistory probability density is non-Gaussian and highly ...

Antibiotics: from prehistory to the present day.
Antimicrobials have been in use for many thousands of years in a variety of formats. In this article, I trace how we have moved from ingenious use of agents available in the environment to chemically engineered agents.

'Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose'?
An evolutionary approach on the study of the funerary systems in Late Prehistory allows recognizing diverse contexts of social crises in the north of Iberia. The analysis of the radio-chronological data that we have compiled indicates five phases of use—

A new method for birch tar making with materials available in the Stone Age
The use of birch tar can be traced back to the European Middle Palaeolithic and is relevant for our understanding of the technical skills and cognitive abilities of Neanderthals.

The Prehistory of Antibiotic Resistance.
Antibiotic resistance is a global problem that is reaching crisis levels. The global collection of resistance genes in clinical and environmental samples is the antibiotic "resistome," and is subject to the selective pressure of human activity.

On the performance of birch tar made with different techniques
Birch tar is one of the oldest adhesives known in human history. Its production has been discussed in the framework of early complex behaviours and sophisticated cognitive capacities. The precise production method used in the Palaeolithic remains unknown
