: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type

abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...

Applied Physics

A portable modular gas sensor for measuring the 13 C/ 12 C isotopic ratio in CO 2 with a precision of 0.8%o(±1σ) was developed for volcanic gas emission studies. This sensor employed a difference frequency generation (DFG)-based spectroscopic source operating at 4.35 µm (∼ 2300 cm −1) in combination with a dual-chamber gas absorption cell. Direct absorption spectroscopy using this specially des...

Statistical Methods Applied in Physics

Statistical methods are used in statistics physics, which is a momentous interdiscipline, to provide a conceptual link between the 'macroscopic world' and the 'microscopic world'. When studying gases, we can examine the statistical distribution of particle velocities and energies by using Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics, which can be solve as a problem of combination, to gain a comprehensive under...

Applied Physics Letters

A simple technique is explored to determine the temporal photo-response, s, of individual semiconducting SiC and Si nanowires (NWs), with a high time resolution. Laser-assisted field emission (LAFE) from the NWs is first shown to be highly sensitive to continuous laser illumination. Pulsed illumination is then combined with measurements of the total energy distributions to determine s which wer...
