The history of the cosmic supernova rate derived from the evolution of the host galaxies
(2000-08-10)Ne make a prediction of the cosmic supernova rate history as a composite of the supernova rates in spiral and elliptical galaxies. Ne include the metallicity effect on the evolution of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) progenitors ... -
A history of the gamma-ray burst flux at the Earth from Galactic globular clusters
(2013-06-11)Nearby gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are likely to have represented a significant threat to life on the Earth. Recent observations suggest that a significant source of such bursts is compact binary mergers in globular clusters. ... -
HIV-MSS: A user-friendly management support system for better planning of HIV care services
(2021-06-28)The advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed HIV infection from a deadly disease to a manageable chronic condition. The life expectancy of people living with HIV has been prolonged dramatically. Therefore, ... -
