Anisotropic Inflation With Derivative Couplings
(American Physical Society, 2018-05-29)
We study anisotropic power-law inflationary solutions when the inflaton and its derivative couple to a vector field. This type of coupling is motivated by D-brane inflationary models, in which the inflaton, and a vector ...
The Avoidance of the Little Sibling of the Big Rip Abrupt Event by a Quantum Approach
(MDPI, 2018-03)
We address the quantisation of a model that induces the Little Sibling of the Big Rip (LSBR) abrupt event, where the dark energy content is described by means of a phantom-like fluid or a phantom scalar field. The quantisation ...
Multidisciplinary approach to the study of the rock art: a case of study from Susa Valley, Italy
(Arkeogazte: Asociación de Jóvenes Investigadores en Arqueología Prehistórica e Histórica, 2012)
[EN] Throughout the last century the study of the rock art has changed significantly thanks to the contribution of cutting edge studies and it has come a long way since the first studies on rock art. This paper provides a ...
More on the holographic Ricci dark energy model: smoothing Rips through interaction effects?
(Springer, 2018-04-23)
The background cosmological dynamics of the late Universe is analysed on the framework of a dark energy model described by an holographic Ricci dark energy component. Several kind of interactions between the dark energy ...
Is speech recognition automatic? Lexical competition, but not initial lexical access, requires cognitive resources
(Journal of Memory and Language, 2018)
Current models of spoken word recognition suggest that multiple lexical candidates are activated in parallel upon hearing an utterance, with these lexical hypotheses competing with each other for recognition. The current ...
Linguistic entrenchment: Prior knowledge impacts statistical learning performance
(COGNITION, 2018)
Statistical Learning (SL) is typically considered to be a domain-general mechanism by which cognitive systems discover the underlying statistical regularities in the input. Recent findings, however, show clear differences ...
Martha A. Finemanand legal equality: Vulnerability vs. Subordiscrimination?
(Universidad de Valencia. Publicaciones, 2016-12-19)
This article analyzes (and argues) the American legal scholar Martha A. Fineman's thesis about vulnerability. It is divided into five sections in which Fineman's paradigm is successively contextualized, projected to the ...
Contextualizing action observation in the predictive brain: Causal contributions of prefrontal and middle temporal areas
(NeuroImage, 2018)
Context facilitates the recognition of forthcoming actions by pointing to which intention is likely to drive them. This intention is thought to be estimated in a ventral pathway linking MTG with frontal regions and to ...
Blue-Enriched Light Enhances Alertness but Impairs Accurate Performance in Evening Chronotypes Driving in the Morning
(Frontiers Psychology, 2018)
Attention maintenance is highly demanding and typically leads to vigilance decrement along time on task. Therefore, performance in tasks involving vigilance maintenance for long periods, such as driving, tends to deteriorate ...
Exploring Criticality as a Generic Adaptive Mechanism
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10-02)
The activity of many biological and cognitive systems is not poised deep within a specific regime of activity. Instead, they operate near points of critical behavior located at the boundary between different phases. Certain ...
