Direct evidence of magnetic reconnection onset via the tearing instability [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection is a sporadic process responsible for energy release in space and laboratory plasmas. It is believed that the tearing mode instability may be responsible for the onset of reconnection in the magnetotail. However, due to its elusive nature, there is an absence of in-situ observations of the tearing instability prior to magnetic ...

Qualitative assessment of tear dynamics with fluorescein profilometry [PDF]
Purpose: To describe a new methodology for tear-film dynamics assessment by observing fluorescein decay rate over time and to understand the relationship between the newly defined tear fluorescein washout rate (TFWR)and other measures of the tear film behaviour.

Taking stanza two of Andrew Marvell’s “Mourning” as its focus, this essay argues that, within the poem’s multiple and intermingled readings of the mourner’s weeping, her tears fall in and out of figuration.

Global Linear and Nonlinear Gyrokinetic Simulations of Tearing Modes [PDF]
To better understand the interaction of global tearing modes and microturbulence in the Madison Symmetric Torus (MST) reversed-field pinch (RFP), the global gyrokinetic code \textsc{Gene} is modified to describe global tearing mode instability via a shifted Maxwellian distribution consistent with experimental equilibria.

The physics of a small-scale tearing mode in collisionless slab plasmas [PDF]
Microtearing modes have been widely reported as a tearing parity electron temperature gradient driven plasma instability, which leads to fine scale tearing of the magnetic flux surfaces thereby resulting in reconnection of magnetic field lines and formation of magnetic islands.

Disc Tearing in a Be Star: Predicted 3D Observations [PDF]
We build on our previous work involving smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations of Be stars, by using the model that exhibited disc tearing as input into the three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer code HDUST to predict observables from a variety of viewing angles throughout the disc tearing process.

MicroRNA Profiling of the Tears of Children With Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis
Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic conjunctival inflammatory condition that typically affects children. Extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA molecules, the expression of which is reported to regulate cellular processes ...
