Observations of the Ultraviolet-bright Star III-60 in the Globular Cluster NGC 6723 by William V. Dixon

“…The star exhibits strong P Cygni profiles in both components of the N  v λ 1240 doublet, but the resonance lines of other species show no evidence of a stellar wind. The star's effective temperature and luminosity place it on the evolutionary tracks of stars evolving from the blue horizontal branch, but its high mass (∼1.2 M _⊙ ) indicates that it is the product of a stellar merger. …”

Soil Carbon Characteristics of a Fluvisol Affected by Aggregates from Two Tillage and Crop Regimes by Emmanuel Onweremadu, Frank Akamigbo, Chigozie Asiabaka

“…Aggregate size distribution was significantly (P < 0.05) influenced by tillage and crop type at 0 – 10 cm depth and soil carbon varied significantly (P < 0.05) with aggregate–size forms, tillage technique and crop species. Prediction of carbon behaviour in floodplain soils should take into consideration variability in ped forms, tillage method and crop types. …”

Quantification and identification of bacterial presence in salted eggs by Zukhrufa Vista Vindriati, Usamah Afiff, Trioso Purnawarman

“… Objective This study aimed to quantify the total bacterial count in salted eggs and identify bacterial species that may affect their quality. Methods Fifty samples consisted of 10 fresh salted eggs that passed the candling test, 10 portions of pasta dough at 0, 3, and 6 hours, and 10 fresh salted eggs that had failed the candling test (black egg yolk). …”

Glycolipids as Potential Energy Molecules during Starvation in Climbing Perch, Anabas testudineus (Bloch) by Padmavathi Godavarthy, Y. Sunila Kumari

“…This selective decline in glycolipid content of certain tissues suggests a possible utilization of these lipids during starvation and the significant upsurge observed in certain tissues suggests a simultaneous synthesis occurring along the degradation, probably reducing the oxidative stress created by ROS (reactive oxygen species).…”

Morphological and functional convergence of visual projection neurons from diverse neurogenic origins in Drosophila by Rana Naja El-Danaf, Katarina Kapuralin, Raghuvanshi Rajesh, Félix Simon, Nizar Drou, Filipe Pinto-Teixeira, Mehmet Neset Özel, Claude Desplan

“…We show that this convergence of similar neurons illustrates the complexity of generating neuronal diversity, and likely reflects the evolutionary origin of each subtype that detects a specific visual feature and might influence behaviors specific to each species.…”

Colour polymorphism and conspicuousness do not increase speciation rates in Lacertids by de Solan, Thomas, Sinervo, Barry, Geniez, Philippe, David, Patrice, Crochet, Pierre-André

“…We used several state-dependent diversification models, and showed that, regardless of the methods, conspicuous colourations and colour polymorphism were not related to species speciation. While the lack of correlation between conspicuous colourations and speciation rates is in line with most of the literature testing this hypothesis, the results for colour polymorphism contradict previous studies, and question the generality of the morphic speciation hypothesis.  …”

Particle Transverse Momentum Distributions in p-p Collisions at √sNN=0.9 TeV by Inam-ul Bashir, Rameez Ahmad Parra, Riyaz Ahmed Bhat, Saeed Uddin

“…The theoretical fits of the transverse momentum spectra using the model calculations provide the thermal freeze-out conditions in terms of the temperature and collective flow parameters for different hadronic species. The study reveals the presence of a significant collective flow and a well-defined temperature in the system thus indicating the formation of a thermally equilibrated hydrodynamic system in p-p collisions at LHC. …”
