A golden nearby SN sample from the Zwicky Transient Facility-II Survey (ZTF-II) – ZTF
Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) are the only cosmological probe able to map accurately the cosmic expansion and structure formation in the late Universe -- the other techniques (BAO, RSD) being cosmic variance limited at low redshifts. The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is the only instrument able to
Phosphoinositides, cytoskeleton and platelet activation – PHOSPHOINOPLAT
Platelets are critical for normal haemostasis but are also centrally involved in pathological processes like thrombosis and atherosclerosis. Their deregulation can lead to bleeding or to arterial thrombosis, a primary cause of heart attack and ischemic stroke. Recently, they have also been implicate
The properties and evolution of large and cold dust particles between the stars – Cold Dust
A major and long-standing puzzle in astrophysics is the exact nature of the large interstellar grains that contain the bulk of the dust mass. From the interstellar medium (ISM) in nearby star forming regions to the ISM in distant galaxies it is the observed Far-IR to mm wavelength (FIR-mm) thermal e
The Historical Geography of Upper Mesopotamia in the 2nd Mill. BC. An Interdisciplinary Research Project – HIGEOMES
The geo-strategical situation and the multifold conditions of the natural environment accounted massively for importance of Upper Mesopotamia within the history of the Ancient Near East. The concrete physical parameters of the region influenced the degree and forms of its socio-economic approriation
Composition of Low Albedo Solar System surfaces – CLASSY_Ukraine
Our Solar System is the only planetary system that can be thoroughly explored by spacecrafts and by the analysis of planetary samples in the laboratory. It provides a unique glance at the mechanisms leading to stars and planets formation, a vision that is complementary to that derived from remote ob
Extinction dynamics of endemic trees in exotic-dominated ecosystems – EDENE
Regional species assemblages have been shaped by colonization, speciation and extinction over millions of years. During the last centuries, humans have dissolved natural biogeographic barriers. The introduction of alien invasive species (IAS) and subsequent loss of native (often endemic) species is
