Bone fusion in normal and pathological development is constrained by the network architecture of the human skull [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
The premature fusion of cranial bones, craniosynostosis, affects the correct development of the skull producing morphological malformations in newborns. To assess the susceptibility of each craniofacial articulation to close prematurely, we used a network model of the skull to quantify the link reliability (an index based on stochastic block modeling ...

A Dynamical Origin for Brown Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
Brown dwarfs may have such low masses because they are prematurely ejected from small unstable multiple systems, while the members are still actively building up their masses. We demonstrate that this scenario is consistent with all currently existing observations of brown dwarfs, and propose further observational tests.
