Résumé :
We present updated cosmological constraints for the KiDS+VIKING-450 cosmic shear data set (KV450) estimated through redshift distributions and photometric samples defined using self-organising maps (SOMs). Our fiducial analysis finds marginal posterior constraints of S8 ≡ σ8 Ωm/0.3 = 0.716−0.038+0.043, which are smaller but otherwise consistent with previous works that have applied this data set (|ΔS8| = 0.023).

For this reason, this original approach studies the toxicological influence of PCBs, quantified in sediment samples collected at ten sites along the river Danube, by an application of advanced classification and clus

AbstractThe subarctic Teno River is one of the most significant spawning rivers for Atlantic salmon in Europe. In 2009, research indicated that the Teno salmon stock was in a weak state, and concern about the future of Atlantic salmon in the Teno River arose on both sides of the river, in Finland and Norway. In 2017, the governments ratified the new Teno fishing agreement (Teno Fishing Act 2017). The agreement aimed to reduce the fishing volume by 30%, and the new regulations concerned all users, including the indigenous Sámi, other locals, tourists, and fishing entrepreneurs.

Rings are distinctive features of many disc galaxies and their location and properties are closely related to the disc dynamics. In particular, rings are often associated to stellar bars, but the details of this connection are far from clear.

We used the 1320 not highly inclined disc galaxies (i < 65°) from the S4G survey. The ring fraction increases with bar Fourier density amplitude: this can be interpreted as evidence for the

Its modelling laws include the following partial functions: (1) Some parallel computing mechanism for the specification of a cell in a piece of cell mass whose parametric representation matches or responds best to the afferent input.

Metagenomic projects using whole-genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing produces many unassembled DNA sequences and small contigs.
