Background The Svalbard Archipelago is commonly believed to have been located at comparable latitude and, possibly, to have been attached to Laurentia in the early Paleozoic (500–420 Ma) based on trilobite assemblage similarities.

The first hirnantian (Uppermost Ordovician) Odontopleurid trilobite from western Gondwana (Argentina) [PDF]
An odontopleurid trilobite remain is described for the fi rst time from Hirnantian (uppermost Ordovician) rocks of Western Gondwana. Very rare material, represented by a single left librigena, comes from a new fossil locality of the Don Braulio Formation

Stratigraphy and Palaeontology of Trilobites in Kuhbanan Formation in the Akbar-Abad Section (North of Kerman) [PDF]
Cambrian sedimentary facies are exposed throughout north part of Kerman region. Trilobites’ faunas are the most common invertebrate fossils within the Cambrian strata. The section is made of 217 m of sandstone, shale, limestone and dolomite.

Insights into a 429-million-year-old compound eye
In all arthropods the plesiomorphic (ancestral character state) kind of visual system commonly is considered to be the compound eye. Here we are able to show the excellently preserved internal structures of the compound eye of a 429 Mya old Silurian ...

The only known cyclopygid–‘atheloptic’ trilobite fauna from North America: the upper Ordovician fauna of the Pyle Mountain Argillite and its palaeoenvironmental significance [PDF]
The trilobite fauna of the upper Ordovician (middle Katian) Pyle Mountain Argillite comprises a mixture of abundant mesopelagic cyclopygids and other pelagic taxa and a benthic fauna dominated by trilobites lacking eyes.

Palaeozoic correlations and the Palaeogeography of the Sibumasu (Shan-Thai) Terrane - a brief review [PDF]
Furongian sandstones yield shallow-water trilobite faunas along the length of the Sibumasu Terrane in the four regions of NW Malaysia (Langkawi), southern Thailand (Satun), the Shan States of Myanmar and the Baoshan Block of western Yunnan.

Ultracold chemical reactions of a single Rydberg atom in a dense gas
Within a dense environment ($\rho \approx 10^{14}\,$atoms/cm$^3$) at ultracold temperatures ($T < 1\,\mu{}\text{K}$), a single atom excited to a Rydberg state acts as a reaction center for surrounding neutral atoms.
