Concerning the character of the economic changes in Lithuania during the end of the eighteenth century to the first half of the nineteenth century by Stasys Pamerneckis

“…Formalised-statistical analysis of Lithuania's serf-estates enabled us to conclude that the components of the inner structure of these estates were faintly balanced; thus, the peasant farms were weakly orientated towards needs of the market. …”

Unveiling inverted D genes and D-D fusions in human antibody repertoires unlocks novel antibody diversity by Ponraj Prabakaran, Abhinav Gupta, Sambasiva P. Rao, Deepak Rajpal, Maria Wendt, Yu Qiu, Partha S. Chowdhury

“…Traditionally, D genes were thought to recombine only in the forward direction, despite having identical recombination signal sequences (12 base pair spacers) at both ends. This observation led us to question whether these symmetrical sequences might enable bidirectional recombination. …”

Voix de revenants dans les Pièces pour danseurs de W.B. Yeats. L’exemple de Ce que rêvent les os by Pierre Longuenesse

“…This type of spectral projection is furthermore intensified by the fact that the “theatrical representation” is only conveyed to us through the eyes – or possibly dreams – of a group of musicians, without any stage direction, which might situate this visual and aural universe in a given system of reference. …”

Measuring Migration Status Based on the Place of Marriage Overestimates the Share of Male Migrants in Historical Populations. Evidence From Dutch Marriage Certificates by Matthias Rosenbaum-Feldbrügge, Paul Puschmann

“…This will be achieved with the help of the marriage certificates release from the Historical Sample of the Netherlands (HSN), which, unlike LINKS, contains both the place of marriage of the couple and the residence of the bride and groom, and allows us to compare the findings derived from both approaches. …”

On the Analysis and Assessment of First-Order Group Contribution Models for the Calculation of Normal Boiling Point and Critical Properties of Pure Compounds by Vanessa Villazón-León, Adrián Bonilla-Petriciolet, Juan Carlos Tapia-Picazo

“…Results showed that the calculation of critical temperature was challenging for several compound families where AARD values ranged from 0.05 to 56.28%, while the group contribution models were more accurate to estimate the critical volume with AARD values ranging from 0.48 to 35.99%. This study allows us to identify the limitations and gaps of this type of thermodynamic models with the objective of improving its performance for the calculation of pure compound thermodynamic properties. …”
