Confinement and chiral symmetry breaking via a domainlike mean field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Singular gauge fields in the partition function for QCD can lead to a domain-like picture for the QCD vacuum by virtue of constraints on quantum fluctuations at the singularities.

The Generalization of Mands [PDF]

open access: yesThe Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2017
The mand is a type of verbal operant whose response form is under control of a motivating operation (MO). It is the first verbal operant to be acquired, directly benefits the speaker, leads to the development of other behaviors, and may serve to replace problem behavior.

Breeding ecology of the common myna Acridotheres tristis: rural nestlings exhibit enhanced growth compared to urban conspecifics

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Urbanization alters ecological conditions, yet its impacts on avian reproduction are not fully understood. In many bird species, nestlings growing up in cities tend to have slower growth rates and poorer body conditions than those in rural areas. Using nest boxes, we compared the breeding ecology and nestling growth of the common myna Acridotheres ...

African Lambdas II: Formal Semantics of African Languages—The Verbal and Clausal Domain

open access: yesLanguage and Linguistics Compass, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The formal semantic analysis of African languages is still a young subfield within theoretical linguistics. Starting with general overviews of the quantifier systems of individual African languages around two decades ago, there now exists a substantial body of fieldwork‐based and autochthonous formal semantic research conducted by both African

Using Out-of-Character Reasoning to Combine Storytelling and Education in a Serious Game [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To reconcile storytelling and educational meta-goals in the context of a serious game, we propose to make use of out-of-character reasoning in virtual agents.

Gravitational waves in $\alpha-$attractors

open access: yes, 2015
We study inflation in the $\alpha-$attractor model under a non-slow-roll dynamics with an ansatz proposed by Gong \& Sasaki \cite{Gong:2015ypa} of assuming $N=N\left(\phi\right)$.

Current Advances in i‐MAX Phases and their Two Dimensional Derivative i‐MXenes: Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, Volume 11, Issue 21, December 17, 2025.
This review presents a comprehensive overview of i‐MAX phases and their 2D derivatives, i‐MXenes. It highlights recent progress in experimental studies and theoretical modeling, while examining their electronic, optical, vibrational, mechanical, piezoelectric, magnetic, and electrochemical properties.

Don't You Know That I'm Toxic? Wild Birds Learn to Avoid a Novel Aposematic Warning Signal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
The foraging behaviours of predators towards aposematic prey have been studied extensively and there is much empirical evidence to support this theory. Often, studies involving wild species are relatively short‐term and so there is a possibility that any aversive behaviours exhibited by predators are merely neophobic. In this study, we ensure predators
