Shifting the Level of Selection in Science
Perspectives on Psychological Science, 2021 Criteria for recognizing and rewarding scientists primarily focus on individual contributions. This creates a conflict between what is best for scientists’ careers and what is best for science. In this article, we show how the theory of multilevel selection provides conceptual tools for modifying incentives to better align individual and collective ...

Quantum Receiver for Phase-Shift Keying at the Single-Photon Level
PRX Quantum, 2021 Quantum enhanced receivers are endowed with resources to achieve higher sensitivities than conventional technologies. For application in optical communications, they provide improved discriminatory capabilities for multiple nonorthogonal quantum states ...

Distinguishing de Sitter universe from thermal Minkowski spacetime by Casimir-Polder-like force [PDF]
, 2014 We demonstrate that the static ground state atom, which interacts with a conformally coupled massless scalar field in the de Sitter invariant vacuum, can obtain a position-dependent energy-level shift and this shift could cause a Casimir-Polder-like ...

Charge transfer and Fermi level shift in p-doped single-walled carbon nanotubes [PDF]
, 2005 The electronic properties of p-doped single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bulk samples were studied by temperature-dependent resistivity and thermopower, optical reflectivity, and Raman spectroscopy.

Lamb shift of Unruh detector levels [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2006 We argue that the energy levels of an Unruh detector experience an effect similar to the Lamb shift in Quantum Electrodynamics. As a consequence, the spectrum of energy levels in a curved background is different from that in flat space. As examples, we consider a detector in an expanding Universe and in Rindler space, and for the latter case we suggest

Speech Level Shifts in Japanese Discourse: An Approach from Politeness Theory
Relacje Międzykulturowe, 2020 “Speech level shift” is a phenomenon in which formal speech is used in casual conversations. This paper aims to clarify when and why this temporary shift occurs and considers whether its functions are unique to the Japanese language by employing the ...

Characterization and Trading of Energy Level and Energy Shift Considering Virtual Power Plant
Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2022 The capability of shifting the electricity generation or consumption to proper time of the day, also defined as energy shift (ES), is the key factor to ensure the power balance, especially under high penetration of variable renewable energy (VRE ...

Isospin violation in low-energy charged pion-kaon scattering [PDF]
, 2001 We evaluate the isospin breaking corrections to the scattering amplitude \pi^- K^+ -> \pi^- K^+ at threshold in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. This channel is of particular interest for the strong 2S-2P energy level shift in pion-kaon bound

Speech level shifts in Japanese [PDF]
Pragmatics. Quarterly Publication of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA), 2022 The present paper analyses speech level shifts in Japanese from a different perspective. By applying Symbolic InteractionistRole Theory, speech level shifts are categorised as the linguistic realisation of aninteractional role, or ‘dissociative role’ Icall in this paper.
