Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”

Unravelling the complex meanings and origins of zisha teapots in the Ming and Qing dynasties by Gao, X

“…The unglazed teapots, made from <em>zisha</em> clay using a slabbuilding technique, have been appreciated by tea consumers since the Late Ming dynasty onwards. The study employs a multidisciplinary approach, including ethnographic research, archaeological science, historical analysis, the concept of <em>chaîne opératoire</em>, and experimental archaeology, to examine various data sources and gain a comprehensive understanding of the origins and development of <em>zisha</em> teapots.…”

Soil-water characteristic curves of hydrophobic sand by Tan, Nicole Shi Qi
