The role of the Eastern Mediterranean in human evolution: recent results from Greece Le rôle du Bassin méditerranéen oriental dans l’évolution humaine : résultats récents en Grèce

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The Eastern Mediterranean lies directly on the principal migration route for human groups dispersing across Africa, Europe, and Asia. It also encompasses the Balkans, where fauna and flora, as well as hominin populations, are thought to have persisted through glacial periods.

A Novel Uranium Quantification Method Based on Natural γ-Ray Total Logging Corrected by Prompt Neutron Time Spectrum

Applied Sciences
The drilling core sampling and chemical analysis method for the quantitative determination of solid mineral deposits has several drawbacks, including a low core drilling efficiency, a high core sampling cost, and a long chemical analysis cycle.

Direct formation of quasimolecular 1sσ vacancies in uranium-uranium collisions [PDF]

, 2006
The direct (Coulomb) formation of electron vacancies in the 1sσ state of superheavy quasimolecules is investigated for the first time. Its dependence on the impact parameter, projectile energy, and its contribution from excitations into the continum

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

A Multi‐Analytical Approach for the Compositional Characterization and Chronological Discrimination of Benin (Nigeria) Metal Sculptures

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a multi‐analytical archaeometric approach for the compositional characterization and chronological discrimination of Benin metal sculptures in relation to the 1897 Punitive Expedition. The methodology integrates elemental composition (XRF and ICP), stable lead isotope ratios (MC‐ICP‐MS) for alloy system characterization ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

Tectonic evolution and mineralization exploration of Lujing uranium ore field, South China

Scientific Reports
Granite-type uranium deposit is one of the most important uranium deposit types in China, with orebodies strongly controlled by structures. Previous studies of the Lujing ore field mainly focused on metallogenic genesis and Yanshanian structure, which ...
