Judges in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada have ruled that witnesses may not wear the niqab-a type of face veil-when testifying, in part because they believed that it was necessary to see a person's face to detect deception (Muhammad v. Enterprise Rent-A-Car, 2006; R. v. N. S., 2010; The Queen v. D(R), 2013). In two studies, we used conventional research methods and safeguards ...

According to the no-signaling theorem, the nonlocal collapse of the wavefunction of an entangled particle by the measurement on its twin particle at a remote location cannot be used to send useful information. Given that experiments on nonlocal correlations continue to have loopholes, we propose the stronger principle that the nonlocality of quantum mechanics itself is veiled. In practical term...

It was disappointing to see the dismissal by the committee of much of the work published by the STRmix developers. They seem to be only aware of some of the published body of work [1-33] We feel that this dismissal is a veiled accusation of bias, which challenges both the our scientific integrity and the scientific journal review process. The committee probably have no way of knowing that the S...

Low energy properties of the S=1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with Fibonacci exchange modulation are studied using the real space renormalization group method for strong exchange modulation. Using the analytical solution of the recursion equation, the true asymptotic behavoir is revealed, which was veiled by the finite size effect in the previous numerical works. It is found that the g...
