Organosilicon Hybrid Materials Derived From Epoxide‐Functionalized Twin Monomers: Novel Adhesion Promoters for Composites

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the polymerization of epoxide‐functionalized twin polymers providing organic‐inorganic hybrid materials with promising potential as novel adhesive composites. ABSTRACT The synthesis and characterization of epoxide‐functionalized twin monomers is reported, comprising glycidyl ether and epoxycyclohexane derivatives of 4H‐1,3,2‐

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Spin–Orbit Alignment in Merging Binary Black Holes Following Collisions with Massive Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Merging binary black holes (BBHs) formed dynamically in dense star clusters are expected to have uncorrelated spin–orbit orientations since they are assembled through many random interactions.

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

Spatial segregation of massive clusters in a simulation of colliding dwarf galaxies

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
The collective properties of star clusters are investigated using a simulation of the collision between two dwarf galaxies. The characteristic power law of the cluster mass function, N(M), with a logarithmic slope d\log N/d\log M ~ -1, is present from ...

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,
