The vocabulary represents (non-rhotic) Australian English pronunciation, and although most of the words and minimal pairs will 'work' in other dialects of English you may need to discard some. For example, pairs like saw-shore, and spa-star are minimal pairs in Australian English and in ...
In non-rhotic accents, words like ‘near‘ and ‘fear‘ generally exhibit two pronunciation patterns: either a ‘centering’ diphthong (ɪə), which might crudely be transcribed ‘ih-uh;’ or as a monophthong, which is usually a lengthened version of the vowel in ‘kit‘ (ɪ:). But...
the systematic choice of interdental/non-sibilant realisations for minimal pairs: Casa : Caza [‘ka.θa]. The geographic distribution of this /θ/ = /s/ merger across the Spanish-speaking world is significant. In the Spanish of the Canary Islands and the Americas, seseo is more frequent ...
Ultra-sensitive devices that detect individual photons by measuring the disruption in the bias current, which arises when single photons absorbed by the superconducting nanowire break Cooper pairs.

A narrow bandgap of a sonosensitizer is a beneficial thermodynamic factor because minimal energy is required to drive the generation of electron−hole (e−–h+) pairs in low-intensity US settings6,16,17,18,19,20. The extended excited-state lifetime of a sonosensitizer is a favorable ...
The refractive index in the direction parallel to the nucleobase pairs is larger than that along the double helix axis due to the highly anisotropic polarizability of the π electrons in the nucleobases40. The birefringence of SF-DNA films could be attributed to the molecular-level anisotropy in ...
For an undirected edge-weighted graph G and a set R of pairs of vertices called pairs of terminals, a multicut is a set of edges such that removing these e... Cohen-Addad, Vincentde Verdiere, Eric Colinde Mesmay, Arnaud - 《Siam Journal on Computing》 被引量: 0发表: 2021年 Polyhe...
nitride domains. The distribution of the three components on the platform formed a Z-scheme type system that reduced the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. The gradually increasing photocurrent showed that the Z-scheme pathway efficiently promoted the photoelectric conversion efficiency ...
This paper presents the distributions of the positions of the Minimal Orbit Intersection Distances (MOID) among three subgroups of the Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs). This includes 683 Atens, 4185 Apollos and 3538 Amors which makes over 15 millions combinations of the pairs of orbits. The results ...
the interstitials can serve as pining sites for the kink-pairs, resulting in an increased activation energy required to overcome the saddle-point configuration for percolating dislocation motion. This pinning of the kink-pairs increases the friction stress for dislocation motion. The friction associated...
