Characters as groups: a new approach to morphological characters in phylogenetic analysis

Morphological characters remain an essential tool for phylogenetic studies, even in the current age of molecular systematics (Scotland & al., 2003; Jenner, 2004; Wiens 2004; Smith & Turner, 2005; Lee, 2006). Consequently, the reliability and validity of the methods used to identify characters and define character states is highly relevant to systematics research. Although identifying appropriat...

How do dynamic heterogeneities evolve in time?

We present simulations of a hard disc system and analyze the time evolution of the dynamic heterogeneities. We characterize the time evolution of slow regions and slow particles individually. The motion of slow clusters turns out to be very restricted, i.e. a cluster is generated and annihilated in a spatial region four times the size of its maximum extent. The residual motion of the cluster ca...
