Local, National and Global Citizenship
(2003)This paper puts local, national and global citizenship into context post 11.9.01 and pre Johannesburg Earth Summit 2002. It contextulises the strands of the Crick report (1998) and how these integrate with the national ... -
The Local, the ‘Indigenous’ and the Limits of Rethinking Peacebuilding
(2021-03-01)Recent critical perspectives on peacebuilding have sought to shed light on experiences so far marginalized by mainstream approaches. In particular, critics have pushed peacebuilding towards radically different ways of ... -
Localism: a planning panacea?
(2019-09-01)It has been observed that there is a 'global trend' towards devolution of power from national governments to regional and local authorities, and planning is one of the activities often devolved. In England, the UK government ... -
A localist implementation of the Primacy model of immediate serial recall
(Springer Nature, 1997)We present a localist, connectionist implementation of the Primacy model of immediate serial recall. We demonstrate a connectionist ordering mechanism which is localist and activation-based rather than based on association ... -
Localist models are compatible with information measures, sparseness indices and complementary learning systems in the brain
(2017-03-16)In this paper, I express continued support for localist modelling in psychology and critically evaluate previous studies that have sought to weaken the localist case in favour of models with thoroughgoing distributed ... -
Localized and non-contact mechanical stimulation of dorsal root ganglion sensory neurons using scanning ion conductance microscopy
(2007)Mechanosensitive ion channels convert external mechanical force into electrical and chemical signals in cells, but their physiological function in different tissues is not clearly understood. One reason for this is that ... -
A locally active discrete memristor model and its application in a hyperchaotic map
(2022-01-23)The continuous memristor is a popular topic of research in recent years, however, there is rare discussion about the discrete memristor model, especially the locally active discrete memristor model. This paper proposes a ... -
Locally working patents and the grant of compulsory licences : the need for stronger statutory provisions in Africa
(2014)According to a well-established legislative tradition of patent law, failure to work patents while exercising any rights over the patented inventions constitutes an abuse. Consequently, several countries impose affirmative ... -
Locating Beggars on the Streets of Eighteenth-Century London
(Centre for Reformation and Renaissance Studies, 2011) -
Locating London's Past
(2011-12)A website that allows you to search a wide body of digital resources relating to early modern and eighteenth-century London, and to map the results on to a fully GIS compliant version of John Rocque's 1746 map. -
Locating the local/mapping the network
(2011-11)Eric Gordon (2009) writes of “network locality – the experience of interacting with located data within the perceived infinity of global access” (p. 22). The smartphone, alongside the rise of digital mapping systems such ... -
Location of the 5′ termini of tobacco necrosis virus strain D subgenomic mRNAs
(1996-01)Northern blot analysis of double-stranded (ds) RNA from bean-leaf tissue infected with tobacco necrosis virus strain D (TNV-D) detected the 4 kb genomic RNA and two subgenomic RNAs of about 1.5 kb and 1.2 kb; RNA extracted ... -
Location, location, location : Collecting space and place in mobile media
(2011)Finding our way between places, through spaces, has been documented using various techniques of mapping. Maps are often thought of as products that allow us to find our way between places. However, they have various other ... -
Locations of Peculiar Supernovae as a Diagnostic of Their Origins
(2013-06-21)We put constraints on the properties of the progenitors of peculiar calcium-rich transients using the distribution of locations within their host galaxies. We confirm that this class of transients do not follow the galaxy ... -
Lockean Puzzles
(2007)In analytic moral philosophy it is normal to use thought experiments in order to try and settle moral disputes. The use of particularly unrealistic experiments is perhaps a bit disreputable but quite familiar. This paper ... -
The Lockman Hole project : LOFAR observations and spectral index properties of low-frequency radio sources
(2016-12-11)The Lockman Hole is a well-studied extragalactic field with extensive multi-band ancillary data covering a wide range in frequency, essential for characterising the physical and evolutionary properties of the various source ... -
LOFAR 144-MHz follow-up observations of GW170817
(2020-06-01)We present low-radio-frequency follow-up observations of AT 2017gfo, the electromagnetic counterpart of GW170817, which was the first binary neutron star merger to be detected by Advanced LIGO-Virgo. These data, with a ... -
LOFAR 150-MHz observations of the Boötes field: Catalogue and Source Counts
(2016-08-11)We present the first wide area (19 deg$^2$), deep ($\approx120-150$ {\mu}Jy beam$^{-1}$), high resolution ($5.6 \times 7.4$ arcsec) LOFAR High Band Antenna image of the Bo\"otes field made at 130-169 MHz. This image is at ... -
LOFAR and APERTIF Surveys of the Radio Sky : Probing Shocks and Magnetic Fields in Galaxy Clusters
(2011-12)At very low frequencies, the new pan-European radio telescope LOFAR is opening the last unexplored window of the electromagnetic spectrum for astrophysical studies. The revolutionary APERTIF-phased arrays that are about ...
