Osteological correlates of the respiratory and vascular systems in the neural canals of Mesozoic ornithurines Ichthyornis and Janavis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In birds, the neural canal houses a variety of anatomical structures including the spinal cord, meninges, spinal vasculature, and respiratory diverticula. Among these, paramedullary diverticula and the extradural dorsal spinal vein may leave behind osteological correlates in the form of pneumatic foramina and fossae, and a bilobed geometry of ...

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Serpents buveurs d’eau, serpents œnophiles et serpents sanguinaires : les serpents et leurs boissons dans les sources antiques

Anthropozoologica, 2012
ABSTRACT Snakes that drink water, wine, or blood: what do snakes drink according to ancient sources? Are snakes thirsty? What do they drink? On both questions, ancient sources give contrasting responses, which sometimes apply to all Ophidians, sometimes only to some species.

Justification of the transition to erbium fuel in VVER-1000 type reactors based on a comparative analysis of reactivity coefficients for gadolinium and erbium burnable absorbers

Глобальная ядерная безопасность
The paper presents the neutron-physical justification of replacement of the burn-up gadolinium absorber placed in a small number of fuel elements by erbium placed in all fuel elements of the fuel assembly.

A note on some algebraic trapdoors for block ciphers

, 2018
We provide sufficient conditions to guarantee that a translation based cipher is not vulnerable with respect to the partition-based trapdoor. This trapdoor has been introduced, recently, by Bannier et al.
