What is the Purpose of the Embryonic Heart Beat? or How Facts Can Ultimately Prevail over Physiological Dogma (open access)

What is the Purpose of the Embryonic Heart Beat? or How Facts Can Ultimately Prevail over Physiological Dogma

This invited perspectives article presents evidence in support of a morphogenic rational for prosynchronotropy (i.e., the heart starts to beat well before convective blood flow is needed for bulk transport).

Accelerator-based fusion with a low temperature target (open access)

Accelerator-based fusion with a low temperature target

This article reports a study of a cold target with a high Fermi energy in light of recent research that points to a new phase of hydrogen, which is hypothesized to be related to metallic hydrogen. It has been shown that if the energy transfer between injected ions and target electrons is sufficiently small, net energy gain can be achieved. As such, the target is considered to be composed of nuclei and delocalized electrons.

Dual levitated coils for antihydrogen production (open access)

Dual levitated coils for antihydrogen production

Article on theoretical and experimental efforts to use dual levitated coils to confine relatively large, cold, dense non-drifting recombining antihydrogen plasmas. The theoretical effort includes the development of a classical trajectory Monte Carlo simulation of confinement. The experimental effort includes levitation of a NdFeB permanent ring magnet, which produces a magnetic field that is qualitatively similar to the field that would be produced by the two coaxial superconducting magnetic coils.

Electrostatic storage ring with focusing provided by the space charge of an electron plasma (open access)

Electrostatic storage ring with focusing provided by the space charge of an electron plasma

Article describes an electronic storage ring that employs the space charge of an electron plasma for focusing. An advantage of the present concept is that slow ions, or even a stationary ion plasma, can be confined. The concept employs an artificially structured boundary, which is defined at present as one that produces a spatially periodic static field such that the spatial period and range of the field are much smaller than the dimensions of a plasma or charged-particle beam that is confined by the field.

Reduced Heart Rate and Cardiac Output Differentially Affect Angiogenesis, Growth, and Development in Early Chicken Embryos (Gallus domesticus) (open access)

Reduced Heart Rate and Cardiac Output Differentially Affect Angiogenesis, Growth, and Development in Early Chicken Embryos (Gallus domesticus)

This article demonstrates for the first time that different processes in the ontogeny of the early vertebrate embryo (i.e., hypertrophic growth vs. development) have differential sensitivities to altered convective blood flow.

Simulation Of An Antihydrogen Gravity Experiment Utilizing Multiple Apertures (open access)

Simulation Of An Antihydrogen Gravity Experiment Utilizing Multiple Apertures

The article presents an analytical model and a Monte Carlo simulation of an antihydrogen gravity experiment that would employ multiple apertures. The model was developed with the primary goal of reducing the experimental run time necessary to determine the direction of free fall acceleration for antimatter in the gravitational field of the Earth. The experiment would confine cryogenic antihydrogen plasma for producing antihydrogen (e.g., by three-body recombination).

A New Multiteam System (MTS) Effectiveness Model (open access)

A New Multiteam System (MTS) Effectiveness Model

The article focuses on a systematic review of current team effectiveness frameworks and models. A narrative-based method for theorizing was utilized to develop a new MTS team effectiveness framework. This research contributes to the MTS literature by providing a new formula for team effectiveness at both the team level (team effectiveness formula) and the MTS level (MTS team effectiveness formula).

Field Environmental Philosophy: A Biocultural Ethic Approach to Education and Ecotourism for Sustainability (open access)

Field Environmental Philosophy: A Biocultural Ethic Approach to Education and Ecotourism for Sustainability

This article proposes an educational methodology, called field environmental philosophy (FEP), which orients ecotourism practices to reconnect citizens and nature in order to contribute to local and global sustainability. FEP’s methodology is starting to be adapted in other world regions, such as Germany, Japan, and Mexico, to integrate education and ecotourism for sustainability.

Uncovering whiteness as discourse: A critical discourse analysis of the in-state resident tuition debate for undocumented students in Texas (open access)

Uncovering whiteness as discourse: A critical discourse analysis of the in-state resident tuition debate for undocumented students in Texas

This article addresses the in-state resident tuition (ISRT) debate for undocumented college students in Texas and analyzes the implicit and explicit messages communicated in the policy and surrounding policy discourse. It uses a conceptual framework grounded in three constructs of critical whiteness studies including ontological expansiveness, color evasiveness, and individualization.
