In this paper, a novel concept for cooperative orbit determination (OD) using inter-spacecraft angle-only measurements is proposed. Different from the conventional cooperative OD that only estimates orbit states, the attitude of the observer spacecraft is considered by incorporating the attitude into the estimated vector. The observability of a two...

A network of 32 or 64 connected neural masses, each representing a large population of interacting excitatory and inhibitory neurons and generating an electroencephalography/magnetoencephalography like output signal, was used to demonstrate how an interaction between dynamics and connectivity might explain the emergence of complex network features,...
A new marine benthic toxic Prorocentrum species is described from the tropical/subtropical regions of the Atlantic (Colombian Caribbean Sea and Northeast Brazil) and Pacific (Southern Japan) oceans. Morphological cell structures were examined using light (LM) and scanning electron (SEM) microscopy. Prorocentrum porosum sp. nov. was characterized by...
The genus Phragmites includes taxa that are very difficult to distinguish macroscopically, and even genetically. To better discriminate these taxa, microscopic traits, such as the epidermis of floral bracts and leaves, and leaf anatomy, were investigated. In the Old World, four distinct giant reeds species (> 3 m) were delineated: two tropical spec...

Ebola (EBOV) and Marburg virus (MARV) are highly pathogenic filoviruses that influence cellular signaling according to their own needs. MARV has been shown to regulate the IRE1α-dependent unfolded protein response (UPR) to ensure optimal virus replication. It was not known whether EBOV affects this signaling cascade, which can be beneficial or detr...
Polychelidae (Crustacea, Decapoda, Polychelida) first occurred in the Triassic, but until recently, no occurrence was reported between the Norian– Rhaetian and the Toarcian–Aalenian, a gap of about 34 Ma. In the present paper, we reassign Coleia popeyei Teruzzi, 1990 to a new genus,Teruzzicheles, and show this species belongs to Polychelidae, not t...
Nomada pulchra Arnold, 1888 est signalée pour la première fois en Maine-et-Loire. Le contexte de la découverte est détaillé ainsi que les recherches effectuées pour découvrir son hôte. Une espèce du genre Melitta est suspectée. Les informations recueillies sont comparées à celles obtenues en Indre-et-Loire dans un contexte proche.
Editorial: a battle for entomology
The philosophy of nomenclature (onymology/taxonymy) is an underdeveloped discipline. The book Taxonomic nomenclature of Pavlinov (2021) explores the history of scientific nomenclature and analyzes the theoretical and conceptual elements that underpin this discipline. It is a rich and comprehensive resource for both novice taxonomists, interested in...
