    • Dynamics of \(OH(^{2}\Pi)–He\) Collisions in Combined Electric and Magnetic Fields 

      Tscherbul, Timur V.; Groenenboom, Gerrit C.; Krems, Roman V.; Dalgarno, Alexander (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2009)
      We use accurate quantum mechanical calculations to analyze the effects of parallel electric and magnetic fields on collision dynamics of \(OH(^{2}\Pi)\) molecules. It is demonstrated that spin relaxation in \(^{3}He–OH\) ...

    • Mass Nouns, Vagueness and Semantic Variation 

      Chierchia, Gennaro (Springer Verlag, 2009)
      The mass/count distinction attracts a lot of attention among cognitive scientists, possibly because it involves in fundamental ways the relation between language (i.e. grammar), thought (i.e. extralinguistic conceptual ...

    • Microvariations in Harmony and Value-Relativized Parametrization 

      Nevins, Andrew Ira (John Benjamins Publishing, 2005)
      This paper explores a parametric delimitation of the space of possible harmony patterns with respect to the class of feature-values that are visible. Extending the framework of Calabrese (1995), the proposal is that ...

    • Pirahã Exceptionality: A Reassessment 

      Nevins, Andrew Ira; Pesetsky, David; Rodrigues, Cilene (Linguistic Society of America, 2009)
      Everett (2005) has claimed that the grammar of Pirahã is exceptional in displaying 'inexplicable gaps', that these gaps follow from a cultural principle restricting communication to 'immediate experience', and that this ...
