  • Reed, B. Cameron (American Association of Physics TeachersAmerican Institute of Physics, 1992-01)
    Corrected expressions for parameter variances in linear (straight‐line) least‐squares fits given in an earlier paper [B. C. Reed, Am. J. Phys. 5 7, 642–646 (1989)] are presented and discussed. In addition, some simplifications ...

  • Reed, B. Cameron (American Association of Physics TeachersAmerican Institute of Physics, 1989-07)
    York’s solution to the problem of linear least‐squares fits with errors in both coordinates [D. York, Can. J. Phys. 4 4, 1079 (1966)] is shown to be exact and not subject to the erroneous results that attempts to modify ...

  • Sun, Genlou; Ren, Xifeng; Nevo, Eviatar; Sun, Dongfa (Public Library of Science, 2013-05-03)
    The importance of wild barley from Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the origin and domestication of cultivated barley has long been underestimated. Population-based phylogenetic analyses were performed to study the origin and ...

  • Sarty, Adam James, 1965-; Pomerantz, I.; Ilieva, Y.; Gilman, R.; Higinbotham, D. W.; Piasetzky, E.; Strauch, S.; Adhikari, K. P.; Aghasyan, M.; Allada, K. (American Physical Society, 2013-06-14)
    We have measured cross sections for the [gamma][superscript 3]He [right-facing arrow] pd reaction at photon energies of 0.4–1.4 GeV and a center-of-mass angle of 90 [degrees symbol]. We observe dimensional scaling above ...

  • Deupree, Robert G. (Robert Gaston), 1946-; Geroux, Chris M. (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Science, 2013-07-10)
    We have developed a three-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics code to simulate the interaction of convection and radial pulsation in classical variable stars. One key goal is the ability to carry these simulations to full ...

  • Austin, Roby Anne Elizabeth, 1974-; Laffoley, A. T.; Svensson, C. E.; Andreoiu, C.; Ball, G. C.; Blank, B.; Bouzomita, H.; Cross, D. S.; Diaz Varela, A.; Dunlop, R. (American Physical Society, 2013-07)
    The half-life of the superallowed Fermi [beta][superscript +] emitter [superscript 14]O has been determined via simultaneous direct [beta] and [gamma] counting experiments at TRIUMF’s Isotope Separator and Accelerator ...

  • Guenther, David B.; Townsend, R. H. D.; Rivinius, Th.; Rowe, J. F.; Moffat, A. F. J.; Matthews, J. M.; Bohlender, D.; Neiner, C.; Telting, J. H.; Kallinger, T. (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Science, 2013-05-20)
    We present results from three weeks’ photometric monitoring of the magnetic helium-strong star [sigma] Ori E using the Microvariability and Oscillations of Stars microsatellite. The star’s light curve is dominated by ...

  • Henry, Eric S. (American Anthropological Association, 2013)
    Some of the most recognizable urban figures in China today are not even Chinese, but "foreigners.” Foreigners stand out from the crowd, not simply because of their perceived racial distinctiveness, but because they are ...

  • Charles, Anthony Trevor, 1956- (Springer, 2011)
    This paper provides a preliminary exploration of current debates over the nature and interaction of rights within small-scale fisheries, and the connection of these rights with issues of global trade, subsidies and food ...

  • Noerdlinger, Peter D. (American Institute of Physics, 2007-12)
    This article presents a letter to the editor regarding Barton Bernstein's book review from the May 2007 issue.

  • Butler, Malcolm; Malaney, R. A.; Starkman, G. D. (American Physical Society, 1994-06-01)
    Applying the phenomenon of neutrino lasing in the solar interior we show how the rate for the generic neutrino decay process [nu] [right arrow] fermion + boson can in principle be enhanced by many orders of magnitude over ...

  • McGee, Harold Franklin (Pacific Affairs, University of British Columbia, 1996)
    Reviews the book 'A Hidden Fire: Russian and Japanese Cultural Encounters 1868-1926,' by J. Thomas Rimer.

    The [beta] decay of [superscript 11]Li is studied at the TRIUMF Isotope Separation and Acceleration (ISAC) facility using the 8[pi] [gamma]-ray spectrometer coupled with an inner array of 20 plastic scintillators for [beta] ...

  • Gallo, Luigi C.; Miniutti, G.; Brandt, W. N.; Schneider, D. P.; Fabian, A. C.; Boller, Th. (Royal Astronomical SocietyOxford University Press, 2012)
    PHL 1092 is a z ∼ 0.4 high-luminosity counterpart of the class of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxies. In 2008, PHL 1092 was found to be in a remarkably low X-ray flux state during an XMM–Newton observation. Its 2 keV flux ...

  • Cone, David Knight; McClelland, Rosemary S.; Murphy, Donogh M. (American Society for Microbiology, 1997-11)
    The spores of Henneguya salminicola, a common tissue parasite of salmonid fishes in the northern hemisphere, were observed in stool specimens from two different patients with diarrhea. The spores’ superficial resemblance ...

  • Morgan, L. K.; Urquhart, J. S.; Thompson, M. A. (Royal Astronomical SocietyOxford University Press, 2009)
    Bright-rimmed clouds (BRCs) appear to be sites of triggered star formation induced through the propagation of shocks initiated by the expansion of nearby H II regions. Our main aim is to establish support for observations ...

    We report a dramatic variability event in the X-ray history of the narrow-line quasar PHL 1092 (z = 0.396). Our latest 2008 XMM-Newton observation reveals a flux drop of ∼200 with respect to the previous observation performed ...
