Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

H+ irradiation of ordinary chondrites supporting observations of Torifune by Hayabusa2#
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. The Hayabusa2# mission has performed a flyby of the S-type asteroid Torifune, and thanks to the NIRS3 instrument, it has collected infrared spectra in the 3 μm region for the first time on such a small dry body. Aims.

A Mathematical Model for Simulating Meteor Showers
Trends in Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2019 This paper presents a mathematical model to simulate the trajectory of a meteor as seen by a single observer located anywhere on Earth. Our strategy is to define a new coordinate system, called Radiant Coordinate System, which is centered on the observer

Humidity‐driven shape morphing enhances fog harvesting in porous cactus spines
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Spine straightening and water collection during fog exposure in Turbinicarpus alonsoi. Summary Cacti develop spines instead of conventional leaves, which often serve as mechanical defence against herbivores. However, some cactus species grow porous and flexible spines, suggesting fundamentally different functions.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global warming challenges forest resilience on the Tibetan Plateau by disrupting tree's physiological adjustments. However, understanding the physiological adjustments between autotrophic and heterotrophic metabolism under shifting moisture regimes remains challenging.

, 1936 Energy changes that occur when a meteor strikes the surface of the earth or the moon, are difficult to determine. The velocity of meteors is so much greater than that of molar masses with which we are familiar, such as projectiles of high powered rifles,

Drought resistance is influenced by soil water uptake depth in dryland shrubs
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Higher drought resistance was associated with shifts from shallow to deep soil water uptake under drier conditions, with both covarying with functional traits in drylands. Abstract Climate change exacerbates aridity in dry shrublands leading to different responses of coexisting shrubs to drought, including different resistance (capacity to sustain ...
