NUMBER FOUR. “In this paper we present the discovery and initial characterization of the most distant radio-loud quasar currently known, PSO J172.3556+18.7734 (hereafter P172+18) at z = 6.823, as measured from the Mg ii emission line.” https://lnkd.in/ds58Spd View in LinkedIn

THREE SO FAR. “The three z > 6 radio-loud quasars currently known, listed by increasing redshift, are: J0309+2717 at z = 6.10, J1427+3312 at z = 6.12, and J1429+5447 at z = 6.18.” https://lnkd.in/ds58Spd View in LinkedIn

FEW RADIO-LOUD QUASARS. “For the large majority of the remainder, the existing radio data are too shallow to robustly classify them as radio-quiet or radio-loud, although there are on-going efforts to obtain deeper radio observations of these objects.” https://lnkd.in/ds58Spd View in LinkedIn

GRAMMAR PROOFREADING. “We argue that grammar originated as a simplified rule system that evolved by natural selection to reduce mistakes in communication. Our theory provides a systematic approach for thinking about the origin and evolution of human language.” https://lnkd.in/d_bJcG9t View in LinkedIn

UNLIMITED COMBINATIONS. “The process of “word formation” enables a language to encode an essentially unlimited number of objects.” https://lnkd.in/d_bJcG9t View in LinkedIn

SMALL LEXICON KEY. “We model the probability of misunderstanding a signal and show that this limits the number of objects that can be described by a protolanguage. This “error limit” is not overcome by employing more sounds but by combining a small set of more easily distinguishable sounds into words.” https://lnkd.in/d_bJcG9t View in LinkedIn

MUDDY ORIGINS. “For many years the evolution of language has been seen as a disreputable topic, mired in fanciful ‘‘just so stories’’ about language origins.” https://lnkd.in/dTkGwcGB View in LinkedIn

SALTATION. “The emergence of language was a defining moment in the evolution of modern humans. It was an innovation that changed radically the character of human society.” https://lnkd.in/d_bJcG9t View in LinkedIn

THE WHY. “My own brain is to me the most unaccountable of machinery — always buzzing, humming, soaring roaring diving, and then buried in mud. And why? What’s this passion for?” (Virginia Woolf). https://lnkd.in/d58kyzRB View in LinkedIn
