Recently, the common methodology used to transform type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) into genuine standard candles has been suffering criticism. Indeed, it assumes a par- ticular cosmological model (namely the flat LambdaCDM) to calibrate the standardisation corrections parameters, i.e. the dependency of the supernova peak absolute magnitude on its colou...
Canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (CIPF) mimics human IPF and affects old dogs from one breed: the West Highland white terrier (WHWT). In human IPF, lung microbiota is suspected to be associated with disease pathogenesis and might serve as a therapeutic target. The aim of the study was to characterize microbial alteration associated with breed, ...

Limestones are prevalent in Algeria. These formations since their deposition have been affected by a range of weathering, dissolution and recrystallization processes dependant of the paleoclimatic conditions they sustained. These transformations also affect the potential hazard that these karstic terrains represent. We focus here on the Boukadir Re...
Most-known IRT ability estimators under dichotomous scoring (MLE, BME, WLE and robust) have associated, simple and fancy formulas to derive their associated (asymptotic) standard errors (ASEs). Such ASEs are of primary interest for determining the degree of precision of the ability estimates but also in more specific contexts, such as e.g., CAT sto...

A grid arrangement made of one hundred rectangular cylinders fixed to the facade of a house generates strong and disturbing mono-harmonic noise. The cross-flow vibration of the rectangular cylinders is identified as the origin of the noise. The present article proposes a complete investigation of the Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) combined with a g...
