On the decidability of Presburger arithmetic expanded with powers by Karimov, T, Luca, F, Nieuwveld, J, Ouaknine, J, Worrell, J

“…<p>We prove that for any integers &alpha;, &beta; &gt; 1, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure ⟨Z; 0, 1, &lt;, +, &alpha;N, &beta;N⟩ is decidable (where &alpha; N is the set of positive integer powers of &alpha;, and likewise for &beta; N). …”

Enterovirus-like particles encapsidate RNA and exhibit decreased stability due to lack of maturation by Kuijpers, L, Giannopoulou, E, Feng, Y, van den Braak, W, Freydoonian, A, Ramlal, R, Meiring, H, Solano, B, Roos, WH, Jakobi, AJ, van der Pol, LA, Dekker, NH

“…In contrast to prior studies and prevailing hypotheses, we show that insect-cell produced enterovirus VLPs include encapsidated RNA fragments with viral protein coding sequences. Our integrated approach reveals that CVA6 VLPs do not undergo viral maturation, in contrast to virions; that they can encapsidate RNA fragments, similarly to virions; and that despite the latter, they are more brittle than virions. …”

Calcined bone provides a reliable substrate for strontium isotope ratios as shown by an enrichment experiment by Snoeck, C, Lee-Thorp, J, Schulting, R, de Jong, J, Debouge, W, Mattielli, N

“…After pre-treatment the enamel samples still contained significant amounts of 87Sr-enriched contamination while the calcined bone fragments did not. <p><b>Conclusions</b></p> The results of the artificial enrichment experiment demonstrate that calcined bone is more resistant to post-mortem exchange than tooth enamel, and that in vivo strontium isotopic ratios are retained in calcined bone. …”

Historicity and the contemporary theatre of Kuo Pao Kun and Krishen Jit by Wee, C. J. Wan-Ling

“…Historicity for Kuo and Jit is not the modernist desire to reconstruct the fragments of the past into a whole, and is not centrally about the representation of the past (though that occurs), but is in the first instance the need to capture the past’s fragments in order to conceive a fuller sense of the present’s multicultural opportunities.…”

Spooky action in the film/novel debate. by Lee, Tracy Marie Shiyin., Luo, Esmonde Jianwen., Wong, Kai Wing., Manoj Prabhoda Chandran., Chee, Kang Xiong.

“…The installation follows a Collector, Photographer, Writer and a Collective (a beer garden group that gathers at the local coffeeshop) in their daily life as they contemplate the curious events, and each other, in an attempt to cope with the boredom they face in the neighbourhood. Their fragmented stories take place over the week, where the action and interaction of the characters during the weekend are in the film components while snippets of their internal thought processes from the rest of the weekdays are expressed in prose passages.…”
