The philosophers versus the sponge: feeling early modern by Ibbett, K

“…It follows the flickering presence of gender in the exchanges between René Descartes and Elisabeth of Bohemia, and in Descartes’s work on the passions, before asking whether we might find better sources for a gendered affect in forms of religious writing addressed to women such as that of François de Sales. …”

Hawking radiation of extended objects by Johnson, G, March-Russell, J

“…We compute the effects on the temperature and precise spectrum of Hawking radiation from a Schwarzschild black hole when the emitted object is taken to be spatially extended. We find that in the low-momentum regime, the power emitted is exponentially suppressed for sufficiently large radiated objects, or sufficiently small black holes, though the temperature of emission is unchanged. …”

Isotopes as a Tool for Exploring Exoplanet Atmospheres by Glidden, Ana

Charge shielding effects of PEG bound to NH2-terminated PAMAM dendrimers – an experimental approach by Johnston, Brandon M, Grodzinsky, Alan J, Hammond, Paula T

“…These data, coupled with 1H-NMR, allows us to study more closely the non-covalent interactions between PEG and PAMAM. We find that increasing PEG chain length increases the number of non-covalent interactions. …”

Experimental Characterization of Iron-Sulfur Cluster Excited States and their Relevance to Electron Transfer Reactions by Skeel, Brighton A.

“…We find additionally that the primary coordination sphere has a strong influence on the topography of these excited state landscapes, in particular that the donor properties of the ligands binding an [Fe₄S₄]¹⁺ cluster determine its ground state valence electron distribution. …”

Carrier scattering mechanisms limiting mobility in hydrogen-doped indium oxide by Husein, Sebastian, Stuckelberger, Michael, West, Bradley, Ding, Laura, Dauzou, Fabien, Morales-Masis, Monica, Duchamp, Martial, Holman, Zachary, Bertoni, Mariana I.

“…We use the temperature-dependent Hall mobility from 5 to 300 K to determine the limiting electron scattering mechanisms for each film and identify the temperature ranges over which these remain significant. We find that at high hydrogen concentrations, the grain size is reduced, causing the onset of grain boundary scattering. …”
