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

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.

Exceptionally preserved Cambrian trilobite digestive system revealed in 3D by synchrotron-radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy. [PDF]
The Cambrian 'Orsten' fauna comprises exceptionally preserved and phosphatised microscopic arthropods. The external morphology of these fossils is well known, but their internal soft-tissue anatomy has remained virtually unknown.

Observation of blue-shifted ultralong-range Cs$_{2}$ Rydberg molecules
We observe ultralong-range blue-shifted Cs$_{2}$ molecular states near $ns_{1/2}$ Rydberg states in an optical dipole trap, where $31\leq n\leq34$. The accidental near degeneracy of $(n-4)l$ and $ns$ Rydberg states for $l>2$ in Cs, due to the small ...

Planar cell polarity genes Frizzled3a, Vangl2, and Scribble are required for spinal commissural axon guidance [PDF]
Background A fundamental feature of early nervous system development is the guidance of axonal projections to their targets in order to assemble neural circuits that control behavior.

Chronostratigraphic Subdivision of the Cambrian of China
The chronostratigraphic framework for the Cambrian of South China is reviewed. Currently four series and nine stages are recognized. The Cambrian of South China is subdivided into one pre-trilobite-bearing series, the Diandongian Series, and three ...

Doubts about the crucial role of the rising-tube mechanism in the formation of sunspot groups
Some preliminary processing results are presented for a dataset obtained with the Solar Optical Telescope on the Hinode satellite. The idea of the project is to record, nearly simultaneously, the full velocity and magnetic-field vectors in growing active

The potential functions of mechanoreceptors found on trilobite larva of Limulus polyphemus (Linnaeus, 1758) [PDF]
In this study trilobite larvae and early juvenile stages of Limulus polyphemus (Linnaeus, 1758) are examined using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy to examine the mechanoreceptors present on the cuticle.
