The mid-infrared environments of 6.7 GHz methanol masers from the Methanol Multi-Beam Survey
(2013-04-01)We present a study of the mid-infrared environments and association with star formation tracers of 6.7 GHz methanol masers taken from the Methanol Multi-Beam (MMB) survey. Our ultimate goal is to establish the mass of the ... -
A mid-infrared imaging catalogue of post-asymptotic giant branch stars
(2011-10-01)Post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) stars are key objects for the study of the dramatic morphological changes of low- to intermediate-mass stars on their evolution from the AGB towards the planetary nebula stage. There ... -
Mid-infrared imaging of the dust shell around the post-asymptotic giant branch star HD 161796
(2003)We present mid-infrared (IR) images of HD 161796 (IRAS 17436+5003), taken with the OSCIR imager on the Gemini North Telescope, that resolve for the first time the thermal emission structure of the dust shell around this ... -
Mid-infrared photometry of cold brown dwarfs : diversity in age, mass and metallicity
(2010)We present new Spitzer Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) photometry of 12 very late-type T dwarfs: nine have [3.6], [4.5], [5.8], and [8.0] photometry and three have [3.6] and [4.5] photometry only. Combining this with previously ... -
Mid-infrared polarimetry and magnetic fields : an observing strategy
(2004)Linear polarimetry in the mid-infrared can be used to obtain magnetic field directions in astronomical sources. However, since the polarization can arise from emission and/or absorption from aligned grains, care is needed ... -
Mid-infrared spectroscopy of candidate AGN-dominated submillimeter galaxies
(2010)Spitzer spectroscopy has revealed that ~80% of submm galaxies (SMGs) are starburst (SB) dominated in the mid-infrared. Here we focus on the remaining ~20% that show signs of harboring powerful active galactic nuclei (AGN). ... -
Mid-IR spectra of type Ia SN 2014J in M82 spanning the first 4 months
(2015-01-10)We present a time series of 8-13 μm spectra and photometry for SN 2014J obtained 57, 81, 108, and 137 days after the explosion using CanariCam on the Gran Telescopio Canarias. This is the first mid-IR time series ever ... -
Mid-Victorian Britain
(Shire, 2011)The middle years of Queen Victoria's reign saw huge social changes, with the rise of the middle classes, the introduction of compulsory education and the growth of the labour movement. The Great Exhibition brought a taste ... -
A Middle Manager's Response to Strategic Directives on Integrated Care in an NHS Organisation: Developing a Different Way of Thinking about Prejudice
(University of Hertfordshire, 2013-07-29)This thesis examines a middle manager’s response to strategic directives on integrated care in a National Health Service (NHS) organisation and the development of an awareness of prejudice that acknowledges its relationship ... -
Middle Pleistocene Till Lithostratigraphy in South Bedfordshire and the Hitchin Gap
(2009-08-05)A revised lithostratigraphy and glacial history of north Hertfordshire and south Bedfordshire is based upon detailed textural data in the clay to fine gravel fraction, carbonate content, small clast lithological data and ... -
'Middle-England diocese, Middle-England Catholicism' : the development of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nottingham 1850-1915
(University of Hertfordshire, 2004)The thesis aims to chart the development of the Diocese of Nottingham from 1850 to 1915, and through a comparison with the historiography of the period, to show how far it correlates with the accepted norms of nineteenth ... -
Midpoint ratings on personal constructs : constriction or the middle way?
(2010)Midpoint ratings of elements on personal constructs have been given various interpretations, and the placement of the ideal self at the midpoint of a construct has been viewed as violating Kelly's (1955) dichotomy and ... -

Midwives' perception of the intrapartum risk of healthy nulliparae in spontaneous labour in the Flanders, Belgium
(2007)To explore midwives perception of intrapartum risk for healthy nulliparous women in spontaneous labour at term of a healthy singleton pregnancy, in the Belgian Flanders, and compare these results with those of a previous ... -
MIGHTEE: Are giant radio galaxies more common than we thought?
(2020-12-14)We report the discovery of two new giant radio galaxies (GRGs) using the MeerKAT International GHz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE) survey. Both GRGs were found within a 1 deg^2 region inside the COSMOS field. ...
