Generics favor stability

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.

First data of the Colombia Lightning Mapping Array - COLMA [PDF]

open access: yes
The first data set of VHF lightning mapping using a Lightning Mapping Array system - LMA in a tropical region is presented in this paper. Six sensors were installed at the north of Colombia near Santa Marta city. Since the installation of the LMA network

Laws and Reasons Why

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...

Evaluation of Geostationary Lightning Mapper performance using the Colombia-Lightning Mapping Array

open access: yes, 2022
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) on the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites - R (GOES-R) series satellites is the first operational lightning mapper flown in a geostationary orbit, which provides continuous observations of lightning.

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Using Houston Lightning Mapping Array Data to Diagnose Rapid Intensification and Weakening of Landfalling Texas Gulf Coast Tropical Cyclones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Lightning behavior within Tropical Cyclones (TCs) has been studied previously; however, there are notable gaps and contradictions in how changes in lightning activity specifically relates to intensification, weakening, and the storm track of the TC. This

Estimates of the Lightning NOx Profile in the Vicinity of the North Alabama Lightning Mapping Array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The NASA Marshall Space Flight Center Lightning Nitrogen Oxides Model (LNOM) is applied to August 2006 North Alabama Lightning Mapping Array (NALMA) data to estimate the (unmixed and otherwise environmentally unmodified) vertical source profile of ...

Dynamic Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering Platform With Multiscale Nanostructural Engineering and Programmable Surface Energy for Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Discrimination of Helicobacter pylori

open access: yesAdvanced Oncology, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
This study develops a dynamic surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (D‐SERS) platform integrating multiscale nanoparticle geometry, quantum dot coupling, surface‐energy programming, and a multilayer perceptron model for AI‐assisted classification. It enables ultrahigh sensitivity, noninvasive detection, and specific Helicobacter pylori identification.

Plasma Membrane Remodeling During Microglial Activation: A Hypothesis Linking Microglial Shape and Lipid Droplet Formation

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 8, August 2026.
Microglial morphology changes in response to damage by Aβ and aging result in significant reductions in cell surface area. Transcriptomic analyses suggest that fatty acid synthesis and triacylglycerol formation drive redistribution of surface membrane into intracellular lipid droplets.
