Knowledge acquisition in science and the blurred boundary between perception and cognition
Abstract This paper provides a critical and detailed study of what researchers in the fields of contemporary cognition and neuroscience have revealed about the blurred boundary between perception and cognition. We set out the arguments with a view to what researchers and teachers should now consider regarding the subtleties of their interrelationship ...

Invisible Labor and the “Ghost Particle”: Underground Physics at the Kolar Gold Fields**
Abstract When cosmic rays—high‐energy particles from outer space—encounter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce particles called neutrinos. To detect them, physicists go underground inside deep mines where the overlying rock can filter out the cosmic‐ray background radiation.

Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Quantification of Palmar and Digital Epidermal Thickness and Sweat Duct Density
ABSTRACT Palmar digital skin, with its high density of epidermal sweat glands and unique stratum corneum, derives its autonomic innervation from peripheral nerves. Understanding the changes to these structures could serve as objective proxy markers following peripheral nerve injury and interventions to promote regeneration.

Synthesis of Nucleoside Derivatives by Biomimetic Ester Migration
In tRNA aminoacylated nucleosides represent the central transfer unit of amino acids. An occurring 2′‐3′‐transaminoacylation is biomimetically exploited to successfully synthesize nucleosidic acid esters. This approach can be further expanded on sulfonic acid esters, which has the potential of a broad range of stereo‐ and regio‐controlled modifications
