I respond to the Bernard et al. comment on my letter “Chiral anomalies and rooted staggered fermions.” In their comment on my letter “Chiral anomalies and rooted staggered fermions,” [1] Bernard, Golterman, Shamir, and Sharpe [2] do not address the main point that the chiral symmetry group for the rooted theory has a higher rank than the target theory. This immediately calls into question wheth...

Replies to the Critics ∗

Menzel’s commentary is a tightly focused, extended argument and it may be summarized as follows: (a) though Zalta gathers a range of phenomena under a small set of concepts, unfortunately, the framework is a possibilist one; (b) Zalta justifies possibilism by arguing that it provides the simplest and most natural explanation and analysis of such phenomena as ordinary modal discourse; but (c) by...

Submersible Reference Electrodes Revisited, October 2007

Th is article examines the status of submersible reference electrodes and presents a new design concept for submersible copper/copper sulfate (Cu/CuSO4) electrodes (CSE). In the new concept, the half-cell potential is independent of the salinity (chlorinity) of the electrolyte, the electrode is not subject to contamination, and structure-to-electrolyte voltages do not require correction to the ...

Microfabricated Reference Electrodes and their Biosensing Applications

Over the past two decades, there has been an increasing trend towards miniaturization of both biological and chemical sensors and their integration with miniaturized sample pre-processing and analysis systems. These miniaturized lab-on-chip devices have several functional advantages including low cost, their ability to analyze smaller samples, faster analysis time, suitability for automation, a...
