Long-term Radio Monitoring of the Fast X-Ray Transient EP 240315a: Evidence for a Relativistic Jet by Roberto Ricci, Eleonora Troja, Yu-Han Yang, Muskan Yadav, Yuan Liu, Hui Sun, Xuefeng Wu, He Gao, Bing Zhang, Weimin Yuan

“…Our campaign, carried out with the Australian Telescope Compact Array, followed the transient’s evolution at two different frequencies (5.5 and 9 GHz) for 3 months. In the radio light curves we identify an unusual steep rise at 9 GHz, possibly due to a refreshed reverse shock, and a late-time rapid decay of the radio flux, which we interpret as a jet break due to the outflow collimation. …”

Flexible reproductive seasonality in Africa-dwelling papionins is associated with low environmental productivity and high climatic unpredictability by Dezeure, Jules, Dagorrette, Julie, Burtschell, Lugdiwine, Chowdhury, Shahrina, Lukas, Dieter, Swedell, Larissa, Huchard, Elise

“…Finally, we identified diverse patterns of reproductive phenology, with the most seasonal breeders generally aligning lactation with the peak in resource availability while other populations show more diverse patterns, where conception, lactation or weaning can all be synchronized with maximal food availability. This study sheds new light on the extent and ecological drivers of flexible reproductive phenology in long-lived tropical mammals, and may even contribute to our understanding of why humans give birth year-round.…”
