A generalized Holling type II model for the interaction between dextral-sinistral snails and Pareas snakes [PDF]
, 2019 Producción CientíficaPareatic snakes possess outstanding asymmetry in the mandibular tooth number, which has probably been caused by its evolution to improve the feeding on the predominant dextral snails.

Optimal Axes of Siberian Snakes for Polarized Proton Acceleration
, 2004 Accelerating polarized proton beams and storing them for many turns can lead to a loss of polarization when accelerating through energies where a spin rotation frequency is in resonance with orbit oscillation frequencies.

WHAT IS THE LENGTH OF A SNAKE? [PDF]
, 2008 The way that herpetologists have traditionally measuredlive snakes is by stretching them on a ruler andrecording the total length (TL). However, due to the thinconstitution of the snake, the large number of intervertebraljoints, and slim muscular mass of

DYNAMIC PARTICLE SYSTEMS FOR OBJECT STRUCTURE EXTRACTION
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 A new deformable model based on the use of a particle system is introduced. By defining the local behavior of each particle, the system behaves as an active contour model showing a variable topology and regularization properties.

Review of Thin Lithium Metal Battery Anode Fabrication – Microstructure – Electrochemistry Relations
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Thin, lightweight lithium‐metal anodes are pivotal for practical high‐energy batteries. This review surveys processing routes that convert diverse Li precursors, e.g., ingots, melts, solutions, and vapor, into Li‐rich foils with controlled thickness, areal density, and tailored functionality.
