TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present offshore seismic evidence from the Gulf of Lions and re-visited onshore data from Italy and Turkey that lead to a new concept of a two-step reflooding of the Mediterranean Basin after the Messinian Salinity crisis, where the refilling was first moderate and relatively slow accompanied by transgressive ravinement, and later on very rapid, preserving the subaerial Messinian Erosional Surface.
Abstract: The Messinian Salinity Crisis is well known to have resulted from a significant drop of the Mediterranean sea level. Considering both onshore and offshore observations, the subsequent reflooding is generally thought to have been very sudden. We present here offshore seismic evidence from the Gulf of Lions and re-visited onshore data from Italy and Turkey that lead to a new concept of a two-step reflooding of the Mediterranean Basin after the Messinian Salinity Crisis. The refilling was first moderate and relatively slow accompanied by transgressive ravinement, and later on very rapid, preserving the subaerial Messinian Erosional Surface. The amplitude of these two successive rises of sea level has been estimated at ≤500 m for the first rise and 600-900 m for the second rise. Evaporites from the central Mediterranean basins appear to have been deposited principally at the beginning of the first step of reflooding. After the second step, which preceeded the Zanclean Global Stratotype Section and Point, successive connections with the Paratethyan Dacic Basin, then the Adriatic foredeep, and finally the Euxinian Basin occurred, as a consequence of the continued global rise in sea level. A complex morphology with sills and sub-basins led to diachronous events such as the so-called 'Lago Mare'.This study helps to distinguish events that were synchronous over the entire Mediterranean realm, such as the two-step reflooding, from those that were more local and diachronous. In addition, the shoreline that marks the transition between these two steps of reflooding in the Provence Basin provides a remarkable palaeogeographical marker for subsidence studies.

TL;DR: In this article, a search for new physics was performed based on events with jets and a pair of isolated, same-sign leptons, and the results were obtained using a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb−1.
Abstract: A search for new physics is performed based on events with jets and a pair of isolated, same-sign leptons. The results are obtained using a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb−1. In order to be sensitive to a wide variety of possible signals beyond the standard model, multiple search regions defined by the missing transverse energy, the hadronic energy, the number of jets and b-quark jets, and the transverse momenta of the leptons in the events are considered. No excess above the standard model background expectation is observed and constraints are set on a number of models for new physics, as well as on the same-sign top-quark pair and quadruple-top-quark production cross sections. Information on event selection efficiencies is also provided, so that the results can be used to confront an even broader class of new physics models.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the production of carbonyl compounds and saturated volatile free fatty acids by pure cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and by starter cultures for Bulgarian yogurt during cultivation and cooling.
Abstract: The present work studied the production of carbonyl compounds and saturated volatile free fatty acids by pure cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and by starter cultures for Bulgarian yogurt during cultivation and cooling. The mixed cultures formed volatile aromatic compounds more actively than the pure cultures. A guiding factor in the preparation of the starter cultures was the biochemical activity of Lactobacillus bulgaricus in synthesizing the major carbonyl compounds, acetaldehyde, diacetyl and the volatile fatty acids C2–C10. The activity of the yogurt cultures in synthesizing carbonyl compounds was at its highest during milk coagulation and cooling, up to 7 h. However, maximum concentration was reached by 22–31 h. In the cooled 22–h starter cultures, acetaldehyde predominated (1415.0–1734.2 μg per 100 g) followed by diacetyl (165.0–202.0 μg per 100 g), acetoin (170.0–221.0 μg per 100 g), acetone (66.0–75.5 μg per 100 g), ethanol (58.0 μg per 100 g), and butanone-2 (3.6–3.8 μg per 100 g). The thermophilic streptococcus and lactobacillus cultures, and the starter cultures contained predominantly acetic, butyric and caproic acids.
