Effect of wettability on vacuum-driven bubble nucleation
(MDPI AG, 2022-05-27)
Nucleation is the formation of a new phase that has the ability to irreversibly and spontaneously grow into a large-sized nucleus within the body of a metastable parent phase. In this experimental work, the effect of ...
From southern Africa and beyond: Historical biogeography of the Ledebouriinae (Scilloideae, Asparagaceae)
(2022-09-22)
Within sub-Saharan Africa, plants inhabiting more seasonal and arid landscapes showcase unique distributional patterns that hint at fascinating evolutionary histories. Research on plants in these habitats have highlighted ...
Judgments of economic fairness are based more on perceived economic mobility than perceived inequality
(SAGE Publications, 2022-09-29)
Are judgments of the fairness of the American economy based on perceptions of economic inequality, mobility, or both? In two experiments, the authors varied information on levels of U.S. inequality and mobility, measuring ...
Which kind of and how much disruption to the symmetry of double-slit is necessary to produce the fringe pattern changes as conjectured to have seemingly manifested psychophysical faculty?
(Society for Scientific Exploration, 2022-12-30)
Whether and how consciousness could affect a physical system is a fundamental question. Radin et al (Radin et al 2012, 2013) reported that consciousness could perturb the fringe pattern of the classical experiment of ...
Overview of meat processing in Africa
(AKADEMIYA2063 and International Food Policy Research Institute, 2022-10-25)
Relative to the literature on live animal production and trade, research on the meat processing sector in Africa is particularly sparse. This belies a sector that is increasingly dynamic, driven by changing demand patterns, ...
Locality and local gazetteers in the republic: a case for the continuity of spatial order
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2022-04-04)
The way late imperial political elites in China positioned themselves in the tianxia - their life world - can be described as a balance between polity and locality, which was often accompanied by an enduring sense of local ...
QTL mapping of yield components and kernel traits in wheat cultivars TAM 112 and Duster
(Frontiers, 2022-12-07)
In the Southern Great Plains, wheat cultivars have been selected for a combination of outstanding yield and drought tolerance as a long-term breeding goal. To understand the underlying genetic mechanisms, this study aimed ...
Semiautomatic algorithm to map tectonic faults and measure scarp height from topography applied to the Volcanic Tablelands and the Hurricane fault, western US
(GeoScienceWorld, 2022-02-23)
Observations of fault geometry and cumulative slip distribution serve as critical constraints on fault behavior over temporal scales ranging from a single earthquake to a fault's complete history. The increasing availability ...
