Stinton's Repository Discovered

A Multi-Cultural Repository of Automatically Discovered Linguistic and Conceptual Metaphors

In this article, we present details about our ongoing work towards building a repository of Linguistic and Conceptual Metaphors. This resource is being developed as part of our research effort into the large-scale detection of metaphors from unrestricted text. We have stored a large amount of automatically extracted metaphors in American English, Mexican Spanish, Russian and Iranian Farsi in a ...

Incidentally Discovered Hepatic Lesions

Historically, unsuspected incidental solid tumors of the liver were encountered only at the time of laparotomy when biopsy and definitive histologic diagnosis were obtainable. However, as cross-sectional imaging studies have become widely available and increasingly applied, the identification of unsuspected liver lesions has become common, and the appropriate means to address these lesions is a...

Who discovered messenger RNA?

The announcement of the discovery of messenger RNA (mRNA) and the cracking of the genetic code took place within weeks of each other in a climax of scientific excitement during the summer of 1961. Although mRNA is of decisive importance to our understanding of gene function, no Nobel Prize was awarded for its discovery. The large number of people involved, the complex nature of the results, and...

Spontaneous Vortex Phase Discovered?

where $ B ­ = 3 $ A, $ M is magnetization and c is the superconducting order parameter. It was shown that a stable spiral phase, where superconductivity coexists with spiraling magnetization, or a spontaneous vortex phase, where magnetization is more or less uniform in the system but vortices are generated without an external magnetic field, may occur. Subsequently, the spiral phase was discove...
