Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

Discourse structure and information structure : interfaces and prosodic realization [PDF]
, 2004 In this paper we review the current state of research on the issue of discourse structure (DS) / information structure (IS) interface. This field has received a lot of attention from discourse semanticists and pragmatists, and has made substantial ...

Resonant Domain Wall Dynamics in a Three‐Dimensional Magnetic Nano Double Helix
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.3D magnetic nanostructures promise exciting possibilities for magnetization dynamics. However, experimental realizations remain scarce. In nanoprinted cobalt double helices, time‐resolved X‐ray microscopy reveals harmonic domain wall dynamics. Simulations identify the mode and additional higher‐frequency resonances, revealing a rich dynamic landscape ...

German sentence accent revisited [PDF]
, 2004 Results of a production experiment on the placement of sentence accent in German are reported. The hypothesis that German fulfills some of the most widely accepted rules of accent assignment— predicting focus domain integration—was only partly confirmed.

Plasmonic Nanomachines: Creating Local Potential Gradients and Motions
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Plasmonic nanomachines can generate optical, thermal, and chemical potential gradients to drive directional rectilinear, rotational, and twisting motions at the nanometer scale. The integration of multimodal plasmonic forces with functional materials and programmed structural distortions enables precise spatiotemporal actuation, thereby providing a ...

Anuario del Seminario de Filología Vasca "Julio de Urquijo", 1989 In this article, the prosodic systems of a number of Biscayan Basque varieties are described and analyzed. It is argued that the detailed description of the facts must be previous to the formulation of generalizations, synchronic or diachronic, about ...

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

When Pitch Falls Short: Reinforcing Prosodic Boundaries to Signal Focus in Japanese
LanguagesThis production study examines how Japanese speakers mark information structure through an Edge-Reinforcing Strategy—a prosodic system that signals focus via boundary-based cues, independently of lexical pitch accent or phrasing constraints.

Syntactic and semantic contributions of pitch accents during sentence comprehension [PDF]
Syntactic, semantic, and prosodic cues all establish expectations that guide sentence comprehension. In the prosodic domain, pitch accents can assign contrastive focus and resolve a syntactically ambiguous phrase.
