We carried out a masked priming lexical decision experiment to study whether visual letter similarity plays a role during the initial phases of word processing in young readers of Arabic (fifth graders). Arabic is ideally suited to test these effects because most Arabic letters share their basic shape with at least one other letter and differ only in the number/position of diacritical points (e...

We discuss our radio (Australia Telescope Compact Array and Australian Long Baseline Array) and X-ray (XMMNewton) monitoring observations of the unusual ultraluminous supernova SN 1978K inNGC 1313 at 25 yr after the explosion. SN 1978K is a rare example of a Type IIn supernova that has remained bright enough to have long-term X-ray and radio observations. The observations probe the dense medium...

Current oscillations at about 24 MHz were observed during electrotransformation (ET) of the thermophilic anaerobes Clostridium thermocellum ATCC 27405, C. thermocellum DSM 1313, and Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum YS 485, using a pulse gated by a square signal generated by a custom generator. In experiments in which only the field strength was varied, all three of these strains resulted i...

Abstract We present an extremely rare case of occult supraannular aortic root intimal tear in a patient presenting with acute severe regurgitation (AR) and previously undiagnosed bicuspid valve. A 41-year-old Africo-Carribean female presented to the emergency department pulmonary oedema increasing dyspnea on exertion. She had been treated empirically antibiotics for chest infection. Initial con...
