Two split-brain patients who differ in their right hemisphere language capacity were tested on a variety of simple cognitive tasks. Both isolated right hemispheres performed poorly on most tests. The results suggest that the presence of language in the right hemisphere, a brain system that ordinarily does not possess such competence, need not necessarily confer the full complement of cognitive ...

The effects of emotionality and length on lateralized lexical decision of abstract nouns were investigated in 41 normal and three commissurotomized subjects. Emotionality had the same effect in both visual fields: Emotional words were responded to more accurately than neutral words. Length had different effects in the two visual fields: The accuracy of lexical decisions in the left visual field...

We used the Fsp technique to quantify the influence of changing stages of consciousness on the signal-to-noise ratio of the middle latency response (MLR). The MLR and polysomnographic activity were obtained from 10 subjects during a continuous 6-hour period. The Fsp statistic was applied to the MLR data in order to determine the number of scores above a specified criterion in each stage of cons...

Vortices in topological superconductors are predicted to host Majorana bound states (MBSs) as exotic quasiparticles. In recent experiments, the spatially non-split zero-energy vortex state has been regarded an essential spectroscopic signature for observation of MBSs. Here, we report anisotropic a conventional elemental superconductor with topologically trivial band structure using scanning tun...

the set of all non-increasing non-negative integer sequences $pi=(d_1‎, ‎d_2,ldots,d_n)$ is denoted by $ns_n$‎. ‎a sequence $piin ns_{n}$ is said to be graphic if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph $g$ on $n$ vertices‎, ‎and such a graph $g$ is called a realization of $pi$‎. ‎the set of all graphic sequences in $ns_{n}$ is denoted by $gs_{n}$‎. ‎the complete product split graph on $l‎ ...
