Abstract

To date, investigations into cohesion in popular science do not appear to be numerous or extensive enough to allow us to draw final conclusions with respect to the cohesive devices used when science communication is not confined to the realm of experts but is ‘accommodated’ to reach and interact with the general public. This research concentrates on the use of logical links between sentences and clauses in a corpus of Scientific American feature articles on particle physics and their translation in the Italian Le scienze magazine.
