The inner crust [of a neutron star] is where the nuclear pasta phase, a novel state of matter having nucleons arranged in a variety of complex shapes, is expected to appear. In the innermost layers near the crust/core boundary, because of the large effect of the Coulomb lattice energy, cylindrical and planar geometries can occur, both as nuclei and as bubbles. These phases are collectively named nuclear pasta (by analogy to the shape of spaghetti, maccaroni and lasagna).

It thus becomes an interesting empirical question to ask whether the “advanced” axonal projection of the muscomorphs co-evolved with the trapezoidal rhabdomere pattern, or whether it developed fully only at some later stage in dipteran phylogeny.

Finally I gave him a draught, and he sank into uneasy slumber.

Who is it, that is so bottomlesly ill, as to love vice, because it is vice? Yet we find, there are some so good, as to love goodness purely for goodness sake.
