On the Tidal Capture of White Dwarfs by Intermediate-mass Black Holes in Dense Stellar Environments

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) are the missing link between stellar-mass and supermassive black holes, widely believed to reside in at least some dense star clusters, but not yet observed directly.

The Difficulty about Proof beyond Reasonable Doubt

, 1977
This chapter presents an elaboration on the difficulty about proof beyond reasonable doubt. It is more inclined to hold that a particular conclusion falls short of certainty because there is a particular, specifiable reason for doubting it, than to hold ...

Effects of Doping, Disorder, and Compensation on Electron Conduction in Si‐Doped k‐Ga2O3 Close to the Metal‐to‐Insulator Transition

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐compensation effects attributed to doping‐dependent shift‐defects at APBs Validation of Hall data for VRH transport near the MIT Persistence of VRH transport for any SiH4 flow in Si‐doped κ‐Ga2O3 due to high compensation coupling transport and EPR data as strategy to study electronic properties and doping T‐dependence of transport data agrees with

Taking the Evolution of the Standards of Proof for a Criminal Conviction Seriously

Quaestio Facti
The article offers a diachronic and comparative analysis of different standards of proof for a criminal conviction. The first part focuses on the attempt of medieval and early modern Roman-canon systems to clarify this type of rule through a network of ...

Justification, excuse, and proof beyond reasonable doubt

Philosophical Issues, 2021
AbstractThe law requires criminal guilt to be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. There are two different approaches to construing this legal rule. On an epistemic approach, the rule is construed in terms of justified belief or knowledge; on a probabilistic approach, the rule is construed in terms of satisfying a probabilistic threshold.

Certainty beyond a reasonable doubt. A pragmatist understanding of the criminal standard of proof

, 2023
The paper argues for a pragmatist understanding of the reasonable doubt standard in law. It builds on the idea that our dispositions to act signal the epistemic states we are in. This helps clarify the notion of a reasonable doubt and the idea of being

Deciphering Intricacies in Directional CO2 Conversion From Electrolysis to CO2 Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review will delve into the inherent connections and distinctions of CO2‐directed conversion in ECO2RR and CO2 batteries, in terms of product types, catalyst selection, catalytic mechanisms, and electrochemical performances, while proposing a benchmarking framework for the evaluation of CO2 batteries and innovative CO2 battery configurations for ...

The Essential Connection between Modern Science and Utopian Socialism [PDF]

Studia Gilsoniana, 2014
The chief aim of this paper is to demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt how, through an essential misunderstanding of the nature of philosophy, and science, over the past several centuries, the prevailing Western tendency to reduce the whole of science to ...

How to Statistically Show the Absence of an Effect

Psychologica Belgica, 2011
In experimental studies, the lack of statistical significance is often interpreted as the absence of an effect. Unfortunately, such a conclusion is often a serious misinterpretation. Indeed, non-significant results are just as often the consequence of an

Ether‐Based Electrolytes and the Solvation Structure in Sodium Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Ether electrolytes enable high‐performance sodium‐ion batteries through their unique physicochemical properties, particularly distinctive solvation structures and co‐intercalation behavior. However, the localized solvation structure and its dynamic evolution during electrochemical processes remain a “black box”.
