A Cognitive Study of the Construction of Killing Scenes in Chinese TV Series
Killing scenes are bloody and can make people feel sick and uncomfortable. Therefore, they are usually partially presented in film and TV works. Yet the audience can still work out the whole killing scene. The underlying mechanism has been sparsely investigated. The current study explores the underlying mechanism by devising a model integrating the Killing Scenario and the concept of multimodal low-level situational metonymy. Through case studies of killing scenes in some Chinese TV series, the paper finds that multimodal situational metonymy is the underlying cognitive mechanism and can well explain how the audience construct the whole killing scenes on the basis of partial clues
Superconducting properties of novel BiSe-based layered LaOFBiSe single crystals
F-doped LaOBiSe superconducting single crystals with typical size of
240.2 mm are successfully grown by flux method and the
superconducting properties are studied. Both the superconducting transition
temperature and the shielding volume fraction are effectively improved with
fluorine doping. The LaOFBiSe sample exhibits
zero-resistivity at 3.7 K, which is higher than that of the
LaOFBiSe polycrystalline sample (2.4K). Bulk
superconductivity is confirmed by a clear specific-heat jump at the associated
temperature. The samples exhibit strong anisotropy and the anisotropy parameter
is about 30, as estimated by the upper critical field and effective mass modelComment: 5 pages, 5 figures, 2 tables, accepted for publication in Europhysics

A blow-up criterion for a 2D viscous liquid-gas two-phase flow model
AbstractIn this paper, we prove a blow-up criterion in terms of the upper bound of the liquid mass for the strong solution to the two-dimensional (2D) viscous liquid-gas two-phase flow model in a smooth bounded domain. The result also applies to three-dimensional (3D) case
