A Broader View of Musical Exoticism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Most previous writings on musical exoticism reflect the unspoken assumption that a work is perceived by the listener as exotic only if it incorporates distinctively foreign or otherwise highly unusual elements of musical style.

Spectroscopic Evidence of Edge‐Localized States in an Antiferromagnet Topological Insulator NdBi

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using spin‐polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in conjunction with quasiparticle interference, we successfully identify distinct signatures of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic terminations in NdBi, a rare‐earth monopnictide exhibiting non‐trivial topology and magnetism. We demonstrate that step edges on ferromagnetic surfaces host well‐

Jemaa El-Fna ou l’exotisme durable

open access: yesGéographie et Cultures, 2009
Exoticism has been proclaimed dead for more than a century. This paper argues that it did not disappear. Jemaa El-Fna Square (Marrakech) illustrates the sustainability of exoticism. The image of this square did not change much in Western literature since

Revising the Lessons of the Masters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Themes of authentication and displacement explored by Henry James in The Portrait of a Lady, a novel later refigured by W. Somerset Maugham in his The Razor’s Edge, have been adapted by V.S. Naipaul in Half a Life.

Large Room Temperature Anomalous Nernst Effect Coupled with Topological Nernst Effect from Incommensurate Spin Structure in a Kagome Antiferromagnet

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ErMn₆Sn₆, a kagome antiferromagnet hosting incommensurate spin textures, sustains finite scalar spin chirality that drives topological states. The anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) originates from the strong Berry curvature of Chern‐gapped Dirac fermions, while the topological Nernst effect (TNE) arises from emergent fields ...

Emerging of Anomalous Higher‐Order Topological Phases in Altermagnet/Topological Insulator Heterostructure by Floquet Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We combine altermagnet with topological insulators and subject the structure to Floquet driving. This breaks time‐reversal symmetry and creates a new type of higher‐order topological insulator. Its key feature is the emergence of programmable “0/π‐corner modes” that can be controlled by magnetic field direction, offering a novel dynamic platform for ...

Fe‐Based Nanocrystalline Magnetic Shielding Cylinder with Subfemtotesla‐Level Magnetic Noise

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Shields with low magnetic noise are achieved by integrating Fe‐based nanocrystalline magnetic shielding cylinders into shielding systems based on μ‐metal. Benefiting from high permeability and low loss factor, Fe‐based nanocrystalline magnetic shielding cylinders effectively suppress magnetic noise. Notably, the magnetic shielding cylinder with the ten‐

How to spice up a breakfast cereal or The translation of culturally bound referential items in “The bluest eye” by Toni Morrison and “Vineland” by Thomas Pynchon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This article will attempt to suggest translation procedures necessary to translate culturally bound items in the referential level of a literary work illustrated with examples from two novels: “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison and “Vineland” by Thomas ...

Representing camp: Constructing macaroni masculinity in eighteenth century visual satire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This article asks how ‘Camp,’ as defined in Sontag’s 1964 essay, ‘Notes on Camp,’ might provide a valuable framework for the analysis of late eighteenth-century satirical prints, specifically those featuring images of the so-called ‘macaroni.’ Discussing
