The perception of prominence: a Rapid Prosody Transcription study with Estonian listeners

open access: yesEesti ja Soome-ugri Keeleteaduse Ajakiri, 2019
This study investigates the effect of different prosodic variables (e.g., pitch, syllable duration, presence of pitch accent and intonation boundary) and non-prosodic variables (e.g., type of verbal argument, presence of clause boundary, part-of-speech ...

The incremental processing of focus, givenness and prosodic prominence

open access: yesGlossa, 2020
This study on German investigates the real-time comprehension of items in First Occurrence Focus (focused and new), Second Occurrence Focus (focused and given), Quasi Second Occurrence Focus (derogatory expressions that are referentially given and ...

Are tornado-like magnetic structures able to support solar prominence plasma? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Recent high-resolution and high-cadence observations have surprisingly suggested that prominence barbs exhibit apparent rotating motions suggestive of a tornado-like structure. Additional evidence has been provided by Doppler measurements.

Prominence plasma diagnostics through EUV absorption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we introduce a new diagnostic technique that uses prominence EUV and UV absorption to determine the prominence plasma electron temperature and column emission measure, as well as He/H relative abundance; if a realistic assumption on the ...

Multimodal Prominence Marking in Semi-Spontaneous YouTube Monologs: The Interaction of Intonation and Eyebrow Movements

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication, 2022
Both facial expressions like eyebrow movements and prosodic characteristics like pitch height and the position of the pitch accent relative to the prominent syllable play an important role in prominence marking, which in turn is used by YouTubers and ...

Stellar Prominences [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
I review recent observational and theoretical progress in the study of condensations of cool material trapped in the coronae of rapidly rotating stars. Such condensations were discovered over a decade ago, producing transient moving absorption features in the optical Balmerseries lines.

Phonetic encoding of coda voicing contrast under different focus conditions in L1 vs. L2 English

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
This study investigated how coda voicing contrast in English would be phonetically encoded in the temporal vs. spectral dimension of the preceding vowel (in vowel duration vs.

Parametric survey of longitudinal prominence oscillation simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is found that both microflare-sized impulsive heating at one leg of the loop and a suddenly imposed velocity perturbation can propel the prominence to oscillate along the magnetic dip.

Prominence Activation by Coronal Fast Mode Shock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An X5.4 class flare occurred in active region (AR) NOAA11429 on 2012 March 7. The flare was associated with very fast coronal mass ejection (CME) with its velocity of over 2500 km/s.

Dissipative instability in partially ionised prominence plasmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the nature of dissipative instability at the boundary (seen here as tangential discontinuity) between the viscous corona and the partially ionised prominence plasma in the incompressible limit.
