چکیده

Claus, Meijer, Repp, and Krifka (2017) present novel experimental evidence concerning polarity particle responses in German, and discuss the challenges these findings raise for three approaches to such responses, namely the saliency account in Krifka (2013), the feature model in Roelofsen and Farkas (2015) (henceforth R&F), and the ellipsis approaches in Kramer and Rawlins (2012), Holmberg (2013), and Holmberg (2016). The authors then sketch a way to account for the data within the feature model, as well as a revised version of the saliency account. The first goal of this paper is to work out in full detail an account of the new German data in the feature model. In the process, we will clarify and better articulate those aspects of the feature model that are responsible for how preference patterns are to be explained. Our second goal is to deepen the comparison between this model and the saliency account by taking a wider cross-linguistic perspective. The structure of the paper is as follows. Section 2 summarizes the feature model, focusing both on relevant language particular analyses and general typological predictions. In Section 3 we turn to the findings in Claus et al. (2017) and develop an account of them within the feature model. To capture the new data, we refine our earlier account of German while leaving the overall framework intact. After summarizing the revised version of the saliency account presented in Claus et al. (2017), Section 4 compares it with the feature model from a wider cross-linguistic perspective, and Section 5 concludes.

Effect of Solvents on the Synthesis of SrAl2O4 Nanoparticles by Reverse Micelle Process

Three types of solvents with different polarity (cyclohexane, toluene and benzene), a nonionic surfactant Span 40 were used to prepare strontium aluminate (SrAl2O4) spinel nanoparticles by a reverse micelle method. The structure of SrAl2O4 nanoparticles was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology and size of the synthesized materials were studied using field emission scanning e...

Large amplitude dust ion acoustic solitons: considering dust polarity and nonextensive electrons

The characteristics of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs) are studied in unmagnetized dusty plasmas whose constituents are cold uid ions, nonextensive electrons and stationary negative/positive dust particles. The pseudopotential approach has been used to investigate the structure of localized waves. It is found that, solitary waves exist in a definite interval for th...

The RNA-binding protein Rrm4 is essential for polarity in Ustilago maydis and shuttles along microtubules.

Formation of polar-growing hyphae is essential for infection by the plant pathogen Ustilago maydis. Here we observe that loss of RNA-recognition motif protein Rrm4 caused formation of abnormal hyphae. The insertion of septa at the distal pole was abolished and a significantly increased number of hyphae grew bipolarly. UV-crosslinking experiments revealed that Rrm4 bound RNA via its N-terminal R...

Charge-to-mass Ratio of Saltating Particles in Wind-Blown Sand

The electrification of sand particles plays an important role in aeolian events. In this paper, the charge-to-mass ratio vertical profiles of saltating particles in wind-blown sand were measured by a field experiments. By combining the results of field measurements with our previous wind-tunnel measurements, we discussed the factors affecting the charge-to-mass ratio of saltating particles. It ...

Gravitomagnetic Separation of Bipolar Charged Martian Dust

The possible role of magnetic anomalies on Mars in gravitational enhancement of separation of charged dust is considered. It is known that charges become spatially separated by differential transport and gravitational sedimentation because the charge polarity of particles of dust depends on the particle size—where smaller particles are negatively charged and larger particles are positively char...
