Dark Matter Distinguished by Skewed Microlensing in the “Dragon Arc”
Many microlensed stars discovered by JWST closely follow the winding critical curve of A370 along the “Dragon Arc” with m _AB > 26.5, which we show comprises asymptotic giant branch stars microlensed by the observed level of diffuse cluster stars ...

ABSTRACT In 1955, Hisayuki Miyakawa published an article that sought to introduce American and European scholars to the work of the Japanese Sinologist Naitō Konan (1866–1934). Miyakawa drew particular attention to what he called the “Naitō hypothesis”—that is, Naitō’s argument that China became modern during the Song dynasty (960–1279).

The wide gape of snakes: A comparison of the developing mandibular symphysis in sauropsids
Our analysis explores the adaptations at the mandibular symphysis required to allow extreme lower jaw mobility in macrostomate snakes taking a comparative approach. Abstract The origin and evolution of snakes has been marked by the acquisition of many morphological and functional novelties, one of which is the possession of a highly kinetic skull ...
