The rate of volcanism on Venus [PDF]

open access: yes
The maintenance of the global H2SO4 clouds on Venus requires volcanism to replenish the atmospheric SO2 which is continually being removed from the atmosphere by reaction with calcium minerals on the surface of Venus. The first laboratory measurements of

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.

I focus on Just Stop Oil's attack on van Gogh's Sunflowers.

Structural characterization of newt tendon regeneration after complete transection: In vivo two‐photon imaging and transmission electron microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The present study characterized newt digital flexor tendon regeneration structurally at both micro‐ and nanoscales following complete transection and suggested that the mechanism of tissue regeneration differs between the early phase (until 6 weeks) and the late phase (after 6 weeks). Tendon stubs remained separated for up to 2 weeks after transection,

The polysemy of “I”

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
Orthodoxy assumes that the first‐person thoughts of an individual are anchored to a stable object. I challenge this assumption by arguing that “I” is polysemous.
