Is mere exposure enough? The effects of bilingual environments on infant cognitive development.
Bilinguals purportedly outperform monolinguals in non-verbal tasks of cognitive control (the 'bilingual advantage'). The most common explanation is that managing two languages during language production constantly draws upon...

Early bilingual experience is associated with change detection ability in adults
Abstract: To adapt to their more varied and unpredictable (language) environments, infants from bilingual homes may gather more information (sample more of their environment) by shifting their visual attention more frequently....

Mechanisms of Choice in X-Chromosome Inactivation.
Early in development, placental and marsupial mammals harbouring at least two X chromosomes per nucleus are faced with a choice that affects the rest of their lives: which of those X chromosomes to transcriptionally inactivate....
Monovalent salt and pH-induced gelation of oxidized cellulose nanofibrils and starch networks
Zakir Hossain, Vincenzo Calabrese, Marcelo da Silva, Saffron Bryant, Julien Schmitt, Jennifer H. Ahn-Jarvis, Frederick J. Warren, Yaroslav Z. Khimyak, Janet L Scott, Karen Edler

Structural diversity and electronic properties of Cu(2)SnX(3) (X = S, Se)
The ternary semiconductors Cu(2)SnX(3) (X = S, Se) are found frequently as secondary phases in synthesized Cu(2)ZnSnS(4) and Cu(2)ZnSnSe(4) samples, but previous reports on their crystal structures and electronic band gaps are...

Criteria for Dynamical Timescale Mass Transfer of Metal-poor Intermediate-mass Stars
Abstract
The stability criteria of rapid mass transfer and common-envelope evolution are fundamental in binary star evolution. They determine the mass, mass ratio, and orbital...
Searching for axion-like particles with X-ray polarimeters
X-ray telescopes are an exceptional tool for searching for new fundamental physics. In particular, X-ray observations have already placed world-leading bounds on the interaction between photons and axion-like particles (ALPs)....
The hyperluminous X‐ray source population
We have recently published a catalog of 1843 candidate ultraluminous X‐ray sources (ULXs). This is the largest catalog of ULXs to date and was built by cross‐correlating recent serendipitous source catalogs from the XMM‐Newton...
