Common and distinct neural correlates of social interaction perception and theory of mind

Posted by dbos Hopkins, This Week: Neuroscience

Kavli Affiliate: Martin Lindquist | Authors: Zizhuang Miao, Heejung Jung, Philip A. Kragel, Ke Bo, Patrick Sadil, Martin A. Lindquist and Tor D. Wager | Summary: Social interaction perception and theory of mind (ToM) frequently co-occur, but their commonalities and distinctions at behavioral and neural levels remain unclear. Participants (N = 231) provided moment-by-moment ratings […]

Estimating Bolometric Luminosities of Type 1 Quasars with Self-Organizing Maps

Posted by dbos Peking, This Week: Astrophysics

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Jie Chen, Linhua Jiang, Shengxiu Sun, Zijian Zhang, Mouyuan Sun | Summary: We present a new method to calculate bolometric luminosities for unobscured, type 1 quasars with multi-band photometric data. Bolometric luminosity is a fundamental property to understand quasars and it is commonly estimated from monochromatic luminosities […]
