The last empress. Saint Richgard and the end of the Carolingian dynasty
(Informa UK Limited, 2020-03-16)The end of the Carolingian dynasty is often portrayed as the result of the weak reign of Emperor Charles III. His former wife Richgard, with whom he had not produced an heir, became a nun after their divorce. These events ... -
Last Glacial Maximum and deglacial abyssal seawater oxygen isotopic ratios
(Copernicus GmbH, 2016)An earlier analysis of pore-water salinity (chlorinity) in two deep-sea cores, using terminal constraint methods of control theory, concluded that although a salinity amplification in the abyss was possible during the LGM, ... -

The Late Bronze–Early Iron Transition: Changes in Warriors and Warfare and the Earliest Recorded Naval Battles
(2015)The tumultuous transition from the Late Bronze to the Early Iron Age in the Eastern Mediterranean was marked by a change in the iconography of warriors and warfare, particularly in Egypt and in the Aegean world. It is also ... -
Late Cambrian Radiolaria from Hunan, China
(Society of Economic Paleontologists and Mineralogists, 1997)Well-preserved polycystine radiolarians, representing a new species in the family Entactiniidae, were recovered from subtidal micrites and bioclastic micrites of the Upper Cambrian (<i>Glyptagnostus reticulatus</i> trilobite ... -
Late Ediacaran Redox Stability and Metazoan Evolution
(Elsevier, 2012)The Neoproterozoic arrival of animals fundamentally changed Earth's biological and geochemical trajectory. Since the early description of Ediacaran and Cambrian animal fossils, a vigorous debate has emerged about the drivers ... -
Late Oligocene and Early Miocene Muroidea of the Zinda Pir Dome
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)A series of Oligocene through Early Miocene terrestrial deposits preserved in the foothills of the Zinda Pir Dome of western Pakistan produce multiple, superposed fossil mammal localities. These include small mammal ... -
Late Pleistocene age and archaeological context for the hominin calvaria from GvJm-22 (Lukenya Hill, Kenya)
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015)The KNM-LH 1 Homo sapiens partial calvaria from site GvJm-22 at Lukenya Hill, Kenya, is a securely dated fossil hominin associated with Late Pleistocene-aged Later Stone Age archaeological deposits from eastern Africa, a ... -
The Late Soviet and Post-Soviet Ephemera Collection at Harvard Library
(Informa UK Limited, 2021-04-25)The Russian Ephemera Collection (late 1980s-1990s) at Harvard Library is a monumental primary source collection for the study of the late Soviet and post-Soviet era. It was acquired in the 1990s along with the collection ... -

Late-Stage Deoxyfluorination of Alcohols with PhenoFluor
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013)An operationally simple protocol for the selective deoxyfluorination of structurally complex alcohols is presented. Several fluorinated derivatives of natural products and pharmaceuticals have been prepared to showcase the ... -
Late-Stage Fluorination: From Fundamentals to Application
(American Chemical Society, 2014)In this brief account, we review work from our lab with a focus on late-stage introduction of fluorine and fluorinated functional groups into small molecules. We attempt to highlight practical developments, which we believe ... -
Late-Time Optical and Ultraviolet Spectra of SN 1979C and SN 1980K
(American Astronomical Society, 1999)A low-dispersion Keck I spectrum of SN 1980K taken in 1995 August (t = 14.8 yr after explosion) and a spectrum taken in 1997 November (t = 17.0 yr) at the MDM Observatory show broad 5500 km s(-1) emission lines of H alpha, ... -
Late-time Optical Emission From Core-collapse Supernovae
(American Astronomical Society, 2012)Ground-based optical spectra and Hubble Space Telescope images of 10 core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) obtained several years to decades after outburst are analyzed with the aim of understanding the general properties of ... -
Lateral chirality-sorting optical forces
(National Academy of Sciences, 2015)The transverse component of the spin angular momentum of evanescent waves gives rise to lateral optical forces on chiral particles, which have the unusual property of acting in a direction in which there is neither a field ... -
Lateral prefrontal cortex activity during cognitive control of emotion predicts response to social stress in schizophrenia
(Elsevier, 2014)LPFC dysfunction is a well-established neural impairment in schizophrenia and is associated with worse symptoms. However, how LPFC activation influences symptoms is unclear. Previous findings in healthy individuals demonstrate ... -

Lateral Templating of Self-Organized Ripple Morphologies During Focused Ion Beam Milling of Ge
(American Vacuum Society, 2005)We report the use of the boundary between ion irradiated and unirradiated regions to template the lateral self-organization of nanoscale ripplelike morphological features that spontaneously evolve during uniform ion ... -
Lateral Trends in Carbon Isotope Ratios Reveal a Miocene Vegetation Gradient in the Siwaliks of Pakistan
(Geological Society of America, 2009)Isotopic analyses of mammalian tooth enamel from a well-defined, laterally extensive 150 k.y. interval (9.15–9.30 Ma) reveal an ecological gradient in vegetation on the late Miocene sub-Himalayan alluvial plain. Two ... -
The Latest Buzz in Comparative Genomics
(BioMed Central, 2005)A second species of fruit fly has just been added to the growing list of organisms with complete and annotated genome sequences. The publication of the Drosophila pseudoobscura sequence provides a snapshot of how genomes ...
