Improved Purification and Quantitative Kinetics Monitoring of Triatoma virus Infection of Rhodnius prolixus

Chagas disease control relies on chemical interventions, currently compromised by insecticide resistance. Triatoma virus (TrV) emerges as a biological candidate, requiring standardized methodologies to purify, quantify, and relate viral doses to biological effects in triatomines....

Spin Waves without Spin Waves: A Case for Soliton Propagation in Starling Flocks

Collective turns in starling flocks propagate linearly with negligible attenuation, indicating the existence of an underdamped sector in the dispersion relation. According to linear response theory, beside granting linear propagation of the phase perturbations, the real part of t...
