Daily turnover of airborne bacterial communities in the sub-Antarctic by Lucie A. Malard, Peter Convey, David A. Pearce

“…Abstract Colonization of remote ecosystems by new microorganisms poses a significant threat to the diversity and function of native microbial communities. In the polar regions, including Antarctica, airborne microbial communities are shaped by environmental and climatic factors, which are changing rapidly. …”

Examining the Relationship between Perpetual Peace and Military Sociology by Sedat Doğan

“…However, especially in terms of sociology, which was established and institutionalized in the nineteenth century, war have become a more permanent agenda than peace. The function of sociology in describing social reality and solving identified problems made an unrealized peace as a part of social reality an accidental issue. …”

Glial Diversity and Evolution: Insights from Teleost Fish by Carla Lucini, Claudia Gatta

“…Microglia originate from both yolk sac cells and hematopoietic stem cells, forming distinct populations with specialized functions in the adult brain. Neural stem cells, including radial glial cells (RGCs) and neuroepithelial cells, remain active throughout life, supporting continuous neuro- and gliogenesis, a phenomenon far more extensive than in mammals. …”

Parameter Identification and Linear Model of Giant Magnetostrictive Vibrator by Anming Wang, Jianjun Meng, Ruxun Xu, Decang Li

“…The identification parameters of the two algorithms were employed, respectively, to calculate the excitation force and it was found that the relative error of IGA was evidently smaller than that of DEA, indicating that the former was more reliable than the latter. According to the identification results of IGA and based on the least square method (LSM), curve-fittings to the magnetic field intensity and magnetization intensity were conducted by using the linear function. …”

Quantum many-body scars with unconventional superconducting pairing symmetries via multibody interactions by Shohei Imai, Naoto Tsuji

“…We present a systematic framework to construct model Hamiltonians that have unconventional superconducting pairing states as exact energy eigenstates, by incorporating multibody interactions (i.e., interactions among more than two particles). The multibody interactions are introduced in a form of the local density-density coupling in such a way that any pair configuration in real space has a constant interaction energy by canceling the two-body and multibody interactions. …”
