Study of the decay mechanism for B+ -> p(p)over-barK(+) and B+ -> p(p)over-bar pi(+)
We study the characteristics of the low mass p (p) over bar enhancements near threshold in the three-body decays B+ -> p (p) over barK(+) and B+ -> p (p) over bar pi(+). We observe that the proton polar angle distributions in the p (p) over bar helicity frame in the two decays have the opposite polarity, and measure the forward-backward asymmetries as a function of the p mass for the p (p) over barK(+) mode. We also search for the intermediate two-body decays, B+ -> (p) over bar Delta(++) and B+ -> p (Delta) over bar (0), and set upper limits on their branching fractions. These results are obtained from a 414 fb(-1) data sample that contains 449 x 10(6) B (B) over bar events collected near the Gamma(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Different types of one-variable Goodwin model.
<p>A. Goodwin model with regular timescale. B. Goodwin oscillator with explicit time delay. C. The fractional delay Goodwin oscillator described by Eq. (17). The silent interval hinders the product to trigger the reinitiation of gene transcription and hence the time span of the silent interval is equal to the delay time.</p

This species is unusual in not possessing any echinating acanthostyles, however these can be secondarily lost in this subgenus (Hooper 2002). The subgenus <i>Clathria (Isociella)</i> lacks echinating acanthostyles but has a regular renieroid reticulate skeleton with plumose multispicular tracts connected by paucispicular ones (Hooper 2002), whereas the skeleton of our species is irregularly reticulate. From the South Atlantic and Antarctic <i>C. papillosa</i> Thiele, 1905 and <i>C. paucispicula</i> (Burton, 1932) are the only species in <i>Clathria (Clathria),</i> which do not possess any echinating spicules. However, the former has strongylote ectosomal spicules and bipocoelles and should probably be reassigned to <i>Iophon</i>, and the latter lacks any microscleres. The large size of the toxa is also unusual; <i>C. toxipraedita</i> Topsent, 1913 (type locality Burdwood Bank to the south of Falkland Islands and north west of South Georgia) has toxa up to 1750µm but possesses echinating acanthostyles.</p>Published as part of <i>Goodwin, Claire & Brickle, Paul, 2012, Sponge biodiversity of South Georgia island with descriptions of fifteen new species, pp. 1-48 in Zootaxa 3542</i> on page 1

Although the species has an appearance similar to <i>C.</i> (<i>Axosuberites</i>) <i>rosita</i> Goodwin, Brewin & Brickle, 2012 this subgenus has a distinctive extra-axial skeleton and lacks echinating megascleres (Hooper, 2002b). Of the 29 species present in the Antarctic and adjacent regions only two, <i>C.</i> (<i>C.</i>) <i>lissosclera</i> Bergquist & Fromont, 1988 and <i>C.</i> (<i>C.</i>) <i>pauper</i> Brøndsted, 1927, possess two distinct categories of toxa.</p> <p> <i>Clathria lissosclera</i> can be distinguished as its megascleres are much smaller (choanosomal styles 170–190 µm and echinating acanthostyles 85–110 µm). <i>Clathria pauper</i> was originally described as having no microscleres (hence the name). Brøndsted (1927) describes basally spined acanthostyles up to 650 by 20 µm, as well as entirely spined acanthostyles up to 250 by 12 µm, and no microscleres. Hooper (1996) re-examined a fragment of the holotype (BMNH1930.11.5.2) and noted that toxas were in fact present. He gives the spicule dimensions as: principal styles with rounded smooth or microspined bases 372(606)810 by 11(15.8) 21 µm; Subectosomal styles 352(481)590 by 3(7.6) 10 µm; Echinating acanthostyles, subtylote with heavily spined base and lighter spined shaft 219(293)384 by 10(12.3) 15 µm; smaller evenly spined acanthostyles 92(148)183 by 5(8.4) 11 µm; Accolada toxas 93(139.5)185 by 0.8(0.9) 1.5 µm; wing-shaped toxas 31(45.5)52 by 1.5(1.7)2.0 µm). Our re-measurements of the type specimen agree with these. Our specimen differs from <i>C. pauper</i> in only having one category of evenly spined echinating acanthostyles, larger oxhorn toxas, and much longer principal styles.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> Currently only known from the type and holotype localities.</p>Published as part of <i>Goodwin, Claire E., Berman, Jade & Hendry, Katharine R., 2019, Demosponges from the sublittoral and shallow-circalittoral (<24 m depth) Antarctic Peninsula with a description of four new species and notes on in situ identification characteristics, pp. 461-508 in Zootaxa 4658 (3)</i> on pages 487-488, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4658.3.3, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/3376028">http://zenodo.org/record/3376028</a>

Responses of stabled horses choosing between multiple and single forage locations
Equine stabling commonly restricts horses’ location and diet selection, with associated physiological and behavioural health consequences. To investigate foraging location choices, in four replicated trials, ten to twelve horses were introduced for five minutes into each of two matching stables containing a single forage or six forages. The horses were then removed and released in the gangway between the stables and allowed five minutes to choose between them. Initial choice, final choice, mean duration in each location and proportional frequency of change of location were compared. The majority of horses initially entered the closest stable on release (P<0.05). If the closest stable contained a single hay the majority transferred to the multiple forage stable (P<0.001). Durations within stables suggest a preference for multiple forages in multiple locations (P<0.001). Eleven individuals swapped stables on one or multiple occasions during trials when hay or a preferred forage was available in both stables. This could indicate motivation to move between foraging locations irrespective of forage palatability and preference. Further study is required to determine whether these effects persist with larger sample sizes over longer periods. However, these preliminary trials suggest that motivation to move between foraging locations may persist in stabled horses
