Constraints on positron annihilation kinematics in the inner Galaxy
(2019-07-01)Context. The annihilation of cosmic positrons with electrons in the interstellar medium results in the strongest persistent γ-ray line signal in the sky. For the past 50 yr, this 511 keV emission - predominantly from the ... -
Constraints on rotational mixing from surface evolution of light elements in massive stars
(2010-11)Context. Light elements and nitrogen surface abundances together can constrain the mixing efficiencies in massive stars on the main sequence, because moderate mixing in the surface layers leads to depletion of light elements ... -
Constraints on star-forming galaxies at z≥ 6.5 from HAWK-I Y-band imaging of GOODS-South
(2010)We present the results of our search for high-redshift Lyman-break galaxies over the GOODS-South field. We use Hubble Space Telescope (HST)-ACS data in B, V, i' & z', Very Large Telescope (VLT)-ISAAC J and Ks, Spitzer–Infrared ... -
Constraints on the circumstellar dust around KIC 8462852
(2016-05-01)We present millimetre (SMA) and sub-millimetre (SCUBA-2) continuum observations of the peculiar star KIC 8462852 which displayed several deep and aperiodic dips in brightness during the Kepler mission. Our observations are ... -
Constraints on the formation of the galactic bulge from Na, Al, and heavy-element abundances in Plaut's field.
(2012-04-05)We report chemical abundances of Na, Al, Zr, La, Nd, and Eu for 39 red giant branch (RGB) stars and 23 potential inner disk red clump stars located in Plaut's low-extinction window. We also measure lithium for a super ... -
Constraints on the nearby exoplanet Eps Ind Ab from deep near/mid-infrared imaging limits
(2021-07-21)The past decade has seen increasing efforts in detecting and characterising exoplanets by high contrast imaging in the near/mid-infrared, which is the optimal wavelength domain for studying old, cold planets. In this work, ... -
Constraints on the nuclear emission of the Circinus galaxy : optical and near-IR spectropolarimetry
(2000)We present optical and, for the first time, K-band spectropolarimetry of the nuclear region of the Circinus galaxy. In the optical we confirm the previous discovery of polarized broad Hα. We have not detected polarized ... -
Constraints on the ubiquity of coronal X-ray cycles
(2012-11-10)Stellar activity cycles are known to be a widespread phenomenon amongst moderately active solar- and late-type stars from long-term periodic variations in chromospheric Ca II H and K emission lines, yet to date, only a ... -
The Construal of Romantic Relationships in Transgendered People: a Personal Construct Approach
(2012-01-27)National Health Service (NHS) statistics show that 4000 people in the United Kingdom are receiving help for gender concerns (DH, 2008). Research has highlighted the importance of romantic relationships during early adulthood ... -
The Construal Processes of Families Affected by Parental Acquired Brain Injury, and the Implications for Adjustment in Young People and Their Families
(2017-01-06)Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) has been associated with significant family disruption, yet few studies explore the experiences of child-relatives. This cross-sectional study sought to explore the experiences of young people ... -
Construct relationships, psychological disorder and therapeutic change
(1982)The problem of interpretation of construct relationships of abnormal content is considered in the context of the use of the repertory grid to assess therapeutic outcome in neurotics. With a view to providing a rationale ... -
Constructing adulthood in discussions about the futures of young people with moderate-profound intellectual disabilities
(2010-04-16)Background This study examines how those planning futures for young people with moderate-profound intellectual disabilities invoke, deploy and interpret contrasting definitions of adulthood and perceived capacity for ... -
Constructing Autism Inside and Outside the Clinic: Exploring Relationships Between Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists' and Activists' Discourses
(2020-04-23)This research investigated the construction of autism in clinical and social terrains. Study one drew from Critical Discursive Psychology (CDP) to examine the language of psychoanalytic psychotherapists in constructing the ... -
Constructing the 'New Australian Patient': Assimilation as preventative medicine in post-war Australia
(2019-05-01)This article brings together historical questions about the nature of assimilation and the medicalisation of migrants in the post-war era, with a focus on medical writings about migrant patients in Australia in the 1950s ... -
Constructing the Irish Presidency : the Early Incumbents, 1938-1973
(2012)Eamon de Valera's 1937 constitution created the office of President. Initially viewed with suspicion and interpreted by some as a step towards dictatorship, the presidency gradually came to be seen as a remote office and ... -
Construction and Analysis of Multi-Index Financial Model
(2023-03-23)This paper presents an empirical study of the expansion of the single-index model into a multi-index model with a careful selection of indices. A total of 91 multi-index models were built and tested using advanced statistical ...
