Les complaintes criminelles dinannaises au XIXe siècle : essai de constitution d'un corpus by Olivier Justafré

“…One of the causes of the little interest which has long surrounded these writings could be found both in their popular vocation and in the ephemeral character of these documents, ephemeral character which explains their current rarity. In addition to flying songs and complaints, which are widespread in Brittany and often written in Breton, it is sometimes possible to encounter criminal complaints of a larger format, often illustrated and written in French. …”

Stat92E Signaling Following Pre-exposure to Ethanol by Alexandria Wilson, Erica M Periandri, Mackenzie Sievers, Emily Petruccelli

“…Findings suggest that expressing Stat92E-RNAi causes enhanced ethanol-induced hyperactivity in flies previously exposed to ethanol. Furthermore, alternative splicing of Stat92E itself was detected after repeated ethanol exposure, although no changes were found in downstream transcriptional activity. …”

Guidance Navigation and Control for Autonomous Multiple Spacecraft Assembly: Analysis and Experimentation by Riccardo Bevilacqua, Marcello Romano, Fabio Curti, Andrew P. Caprari, Veronica Pellegrini

“…By using the proposed navigation method, a chaser spacecraft can estimate the relative position, the attitude and the control inputs of a target spacecraft, flying in its proximity. The proposed approaches are successfully validated via hardware-in-the-loop experimentation, using four autonomous three-degree-of-freedom robotic spacecraft simulators, floating on a flat floor.…”
