‘He Describes What He Sees’: Byron’s Letters from Italy

What does he mean?

Empirical results on the meaning of accented pronouns often conflict. This is a problem for formal semantic models. In this paper, we intend to broaden the empirical basis of two of these models. First, in a corpus study, we checked whether properties of the antecedent influence whether a pronoun is be accented. We found that pronouns with NP antecedents are more likely to be accented than thos...

How George Soros Knows What He Knows

In its traditional formulation as an explanatory principle, reflexivity means that any object of thought contains in itself the thinking activity that generates it. Applying the concept of reflexivity to the question of financial markets valuation, Soros concludes that economic reality is actively shaped by the perceptions of market participants. This leads him to a theory of investment radical...

Calculations of the binding energies of weakly bound He–He–H, He–He–H− and He–H–H molecules

We searched for the existence of weakly bound He–He–H, He–He–H− and He–H– H molecules where the binding energies are expected to be of the order of degrees Kelvin. By employing the best empirical interaction between each pair of particles, we solved the Schrödinger equation for the triatomic systems using hyperspherical coordinates in the adiabatic approximation. We found no bound states for 4H...
