Abstract:

The article focuses on the problem of research methodology in linguistics and argues that motion pictures, or feature films, provide a good source of empirical data for a realistic investigation of language as a communicative behavior. Evidence from epistemology and philosophy of science shows that scriptism and rationalism as two dominating methodologies in traditional linguistics do not give a whole picture of language functionality because through them we cannot observe a human's communicative behavior in dynamics. The aim of the article is to offer an alternative understanding of the subje

Abstract:

This article proposes a reconceptualization of the term “actor” within motion pictures and presents the argument that “acting” is a matter of distributed agency performed by heterogeneous assemblages. What constitutes an actor is what I will label as a “cinematic actor assemblage,” a term that comprises what is commonly known as human actors as well as material entities that play an active part in motion picture images. The use of intra-diegetic cameras in contemporary found footage horror films constitutes a particular case of such cinematic actor assemblages. Through a dynamic relational per

Abstract:

We investigate the influence of oscillating normal force on the frictional sliding. Frictional sliding in the case of a simple mass-spring model of Burridge and Knopoff type demonstrates stick-slip even when the friction coefficient is constant. Oscillations of the normal force in this case do not produce noticeable changes in the stick-slip sliding mode. A completely different picture is observed when the oscillations of normal force are applied to the system, which is in the state of steady sliding. In this case the normal oscillations turn the steady sliding into stick slip. A special case

Abstract:

AbstractEinstein’s general theory of relativity from 19151 remains the most successful description of gravitation. From the 1919 solar eclipse2 to the observation of gravitational waves3, the theory has passed many crucial experimental tests. However, the evolving concepts of dark matter and dark energy illustrate that there is much to be learned about the gravitating content of the universe. Singularities in the general theory of relativity and the lack of a quantum theory of gravity suggest that our picture is incomplete. It is thus prudent to explore gravity in exotic physical systems.

Abstract:

AbstractHigh resolution HI observations of nearby dwarf galaxies (most of which are situated in the M81 group at a distance of about 3·2 Mpc) reveal that their neutral interstellar medium (ISM) is dominated by hole-like features most of which are expanding. A comparison of the physical properties of these holes with the ones found in more massive spiral galaxies (such as M31 and M33) shows that they tend to reach much larger sizes in dwarf galaxies. This can be understood in terms of the galaxy's gravitational potential. The origin of these features is still a matter of debate. In general, you

The theory of homogeneous barotropic beta-plane turbulence is here extended to include effects arising from spatial inhomogeneity in the form of a zonal shear flow. Attention is restricted to the geophysically important case of zonal flows that are barotropically stable and are of larger scale than the resulting transient eddy field.Because of the presumed scale separation, the disturbance enstrophy is approximately conserved in a fully nonlinear sense, and the (nonlinear) wave-mean-flow interaction may be characterized as a shear-induced spectral transfer of disturbance enstrophy along lines

Mirror mode turbulence is the lowest frequency perpendicular magnetic excitation in magnetized plasma proposed already about half a century ago by Rudakov and Sagdeev (1958) and Chandrasekhar et al.

It was early recognized that mirror modes for being excited require a transverse pressure (or temperature) anisotropy. In principle mirror modes are some version of slow mode waves. Fluid theory, however, does not give a correct physical picture of the mirror mode. The linear infinitesimally small amp

Abstract:

In the roadrunner cartoons, the unlucky coyote, in hot pursuit of the roadrunner, frequently finds himself running off the edge of a precipice. In sympathy with the coyote's plight, the laws of physics suspend their action. Gravity waits to exert its force until the coyote realizes his situation and resigns himself to the inevitable. Only then does the coyote fall, miraculously surviving the near-disaster without serious damage. What does this have to do with cell biology at the turn of the millennium? Blame it on JCS's Caveman or at least the infectiousness of the troglodyte's point of view.

The obtained results are compared to the case of a parabolic (standard) dispersion law of charge carriers. The possibility of the accidental exciton instability is revealed

We consider axisymmetric equilibrium of a tokamak plasma that includes current carried by relativistic runaway electrons (REs).

In a hot thermal plasma, none of the classical drifts of charged particles contribute to the net field-perpendicular current density, which is purely due to magnetization current. In the case of a runaway beam, however, the curvature drift of REs provides the Lorentz force needed to maintain the centripetal acceleration associated with the relativistic toroidal m
