The Wrongness of Sex with Animals
(2011-07)For sexual purposes, animals are off limits. But if we regard attributions of species membership as unimportant in familiar ethical contexts, then it may be difficult to explain why this is the case. Someone who is unimpressed ... -
WSClean : an implementation of a fast, generic wide-field imager for radio astronomy
(2014-10-11)Astronomical widefield imaging of interferometric radio data is computationally expensive, especially for the large data volumes created by modern non-coplanar many-element arrays. We present a new widefield interferometric ... -
Wurster fluidised bed coating of microparticles: Towards scalable production of oral sustained-release liquid medicines for patients with swallowing difficulties
(2019-11-11)Suspension of microparticles in an easy-to-swallow liquid is one approach to develop sustained-release formulations for children and patients with swallowing difficulties. However, to date production of sustained-release ... -

X-linked ichthyosis with hypogonadism : not always Kallmann's syndrome
(2006)We describe two males with congenital ichthyosis secondary to steroid sulphatase deficiency who also manifested delayed puberty with biochemical features of hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism. In the first patient a history ... -
X-Phi and the challenge from ad hoc concepts
(2023-05-03)Ad hoc concepts feature prominently in lexical pragmatics. A speaker can use a word or phrase to communicate an ad hoc concept that is different from the lexically encoded concept and the hearer can construct the intended ... -
X-ray absorption and reprocessing in the z ∼ 2.5 lensed quasar 2MASS J1042+1641
(2022-10-19)We present new broad-band X-ray observations of the z ∼ 2.5 lensed quasar 2MASS J1042+1641, combining XMM–Newton, Chandra, and NuSTAR to provide coverage of the X-ray spectrum over the 0.3–40 keV bandpass in the observed ... -
The X-ray cataclysmic variable 1E0643.0 −1648
(1981)We have used a new simultaneous IR/optical high-speed photometer on the UK IR telescope to study the recently discovered X-ray cataclysmic variable 1E0643.0−1648 (refs 1, 2). The light curve of this object obtained by the ... -
X-ray emission from an expanding supergiant shell in IC 2574
(1998)We present a multiwavelength study of a supergiant shell within the violent interstellar medium of the nearby dwarf galaxy IC 2574, which is a member of the M81 group of galaxies. Neutral hydrogen (H i) observations obtained ... -
X-ray emission from the extended emission-line region of the powerful radio galaxy 3C 171
(2010)We present Chandra X-ray observations of the powerful radio galaxy 3C 171, which reveal an extended region of X-ray emission spatially associated with the well-known 10-kpc scale optical emission-line region around the ... -
The X-ray Emission of Low-Power Radio Galaxies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2003)A low-power radio galaxy generally emits X-rays from a compact X-ray core, its brighter kpc-scale radio jet, and a galaxy atmosphere. The core emission is normally predominantly radio related. The kpc-scale jet emission ... -
X-ray flare candidates in short gamma-ray bursts
(2011-11-01)We present the first systematic study of X-ray flare candidates in short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) exploiting the large 6-year Swift data base with the aim to constrain the physical nature of such fluctuations. We find that ... -
X-ray groups and clusters of galaxies in the Subaru–XMM Deep Field
(2010)We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters in the Subaru–XMM Deep Field (SXDF). We reach a depth for a total cluster flux in the 0.5–2 keV band of 2 × 10−15 erg cm−2 s−1 over one of the widest XMM–Newton ...
