Novel visual perceptual phenomenon in isoluminant bi-coloured square-wave gratings by Tan, Azaac Wei En

“…We document the physical characteristics of the stimuli that affect the strength of the illusion and the illusory colours perceived, and consider potential mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. In line with our hypotheses, the results reveal that the strength of the illusion varies with the spatial frequency of the grating, and that the illusory percept is motion-dependent. …”

Rethinking the role that the “step” in the load–displacement curves can play in measurement of fracture toughness for hard coatings by Zhang, Xiaomin, Zhang, Sam

“…This paper scrutinizes the “step” and finds that the “step” is a gap artificially bridged up with a straight line and that the “step” size corresponds with the thickness of the coating in testing. …”

Fraudulent mediums and miracle-mongers: illusion, concealment and revelation in the works of Crivelli, Greenberg and Houdini by David, Karen

“…This article aims to raise questions and comparisons between illusions found in pictorial language, magical apparatus and parafictions, illustrating the fine line between illusion and material, and concealment and revelation.…”

B-twisted Gaiotto–Witten theory and topological quantum field theory by Garner, N, Geer, N, Young, MB

“…Fundamental to our approach is the systematic incorporation of non-genuine line operators which source flat connections for the topological flavour symmetry of the theory.…”

Masdar City: ‘City of Possibilities’ by Griffiths, S

“…Partly due to the global financial crisis of 2008 and partly due to experience gained from continued assessments of the original concept, Masdar has scaled back the initial ambitions for the city’s carbon and waste targets, as well as the development approach and time-line for the entire city. This, however, may ultimately prove to be the best outcome for Masdar City if it is truly to become a model for sustainable cities of the future.…”

Recognising rotationally symmetric surfaces from their outlines by Forsyth, DA, Mundy, JL, Zisserman, A, Rothwell, CA

“…The results additionally yield techniques for identifying the line in the image plane corresponding to the axis of a rotationally symmetric surface, and for telling whether a surface is rotationally symmetric or not from its outline alone.…”

Swift: poetical repurposer by Cox, O

“…He did so ironically, however, by lifting a line from John Denham's On Mr Abraham Cowley and putting it into the mouth of a hypothetical, ignorant critic elegizing “Swift”: Denham's “what he wrote was all his own” becomes Swift's “what he writ was all his own” (1–2). …”

刘宗周《人谱》的改过思想及工夫论 = The idea of reform cultivation in Liu Zongzhou’s "Renpu" by 林彦慧 Lim, Dorothea Yan Hui

“…Hence, to correct late-Ming’s academic atmosphere, he created “Renpu”. “Ji Guo Ge” (〈纪过格〉), “Song Guo Fa” (〈讼过法〉) and “Gai Guo Shuo” (〈改过说〉) being the second part of “Renpu”, listed all kinds of wrong-doings and elaborated on the concise steps of reforming one’s wrongdoings. …”

Synthesis of Co-doped MoS2 monolayers with enhanced valley splitting by Zhou, Jiadong, Lin, Junhao, Sims, Hunter, Jiang, Chongyun, Cong, Chunxiao, Brehm, John A., Zhang, Zhaowei, Niu, Lin, Chen, Yu, Zhou, Yao, Wang, Yanlong, Liu, Fucai, Zhu, Chao, Yu, Ting, Suenaga, Kazu, Mishra, Rohan, Pantelides, Sokrates T., Zhu, Zhen-Gang, Gao, Weibo, Liu, Zheng, Zhou, Wu

“…Density functional theory (DFT) and model calculations reveal that the observed enhanced VZS arises from an internal magnetic field induced by the tridopant clusters, which couples to the spin, atomic orbital, and valley magnetic moment of carriers from the conduction and valence bands. …”

Nonlinear polariton parametric emission in an atomically thin semiconductor based microcavity by Zhao, Jiaxin, Fieramosca, Antonio, Bao, Ruiqi, Du, Wei, Dini, Kevin, Su, Rui, Feng, Jiangang, Luo, Yuan, Sanvitto, Daniele, Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Xiong, Qihua

“…Recently, two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted great attention in strong light–matter interactions due to robust excitonic transitions and unique spin-valley degrees of freedom. However, further progress is hindered by the lack of realizations of strong nonlinear effects in TMD polaritons. …”

Induction of z-conformation in ribosomal RNA by Z-DNA binding domain Zα of the human double-stranded RNA deaminase I (ADAR1) by Zhao, Jing

“…In order to provide theoretical foundations for the analysis of NMR spectral responses of ZαADAR1 to ribosomes we attempted to extend the conventional NMR relaxation theory to include a semi solid-state treatment of nuclear spin dynamics in large complexes. The main challenge to the classical NMR theory arises when one of the binding partners is so large that in the chemical shift time scale of solution NMR (milliseconds) it can be considered as practically static or solid-state-like. …”
