Degrés de subjectivisation dans la représentation linguistique de la perception : le cas de la perception directe dans les récits en anglais by Henry Wyld

“…Drawing on examples taken from narrative fiction in English, this article sets out to explore the grammar of the linguistic expression of perception from the standpoint of the degree of subjectivisation manifest in the percept’s mode of presentation – at one extreme, standard perceptual reports, by which, in association with a verb of perception, the speaker-narrator names or describes an object of perception whilst at the same time predicating it of an origin of perception figuring syntactically within the same utterance (domain of predicated perception); at the other extreme, markedly more subjectivised modes of expression via which, without recourse to a predicate of perception, the sensorial essence of the act of perception as it is experienced by the perceiving subject is given direct linguistic expression (domain of represented perception). …”

Large Geomagnetically Induced Currents at Equator Caused by an Interplanetary Magnetic Cloud by B. Nilam, S. Tulasi Ram

“…Abstract Here, we report a rare observation of an extremely large and rapid change of geomagnetic field (dB/dt), a proxy for the geomagnetically induced currents (GICs), at the equator caused by a sudden drop in solar wind density at the front boundary of a magnetic cloud (MC) during the great 31 March 2001 storm. …”

Relativistic Einstein rings of Reissner–Nordström black holes nonminimally coupled to electrodynamics by Rodrigo Maier

“…These patterns are not followed by nearly extremal configurations. In this case we show that there is an overlap domain so that the angular position and the corresponding coupling parameter do not allow one to differ extremal cases from complementary configurations which satisfy the cosmic censorship hypothesis.…”
