Gas dynamics in tidal dwarf galaxies : disc formation at z=0
(2015-12)
Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are recycled objects that form within the collisional debris of interacting/merging galaxies. They are expected to be devoid of non-baryonic dark matter, since they can form only from dissipative ...
Experimental Study on a Coiled Tube Solar Receiver under Variable Solar Radiation Condition
(2015-12-01)
This article presents an experimental investigation of the heat transfer characteristics as well as energy and exergy performance for a coil type solar dish receiver under variable solar radiation conditions. During a 4.5 ...
Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions - II. The lifetimes of broad bridge features
(2015-12-01)
We investigate the longevity of broad bridge features in position–velocity diagrams that appear as a result of cloud–cloud collisions. Broad bridges will have a finite lifetime due to the action of feedback, conversion of ...
Squeezed between shells? The origin of the Lupus I molecular cloud. APEX/LABOCA, Herschel, and Planck observations
(2015-12-01)
Context. The Lupus I cloud is found between the Upper Scorpius (USco) and the Upper Centaurus-Lupus (UCL) subgroups of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association, where the expanding USco H I shell appears to interact with a ...
Protest and the Politics of Space and Place, 1789-1848
(Manchester University Press, 2015-12-01)
This book is a wide-ranging survey of the rise of mass movements for democracy and workers’ rights in northern England. It is a provocative narrative of the closing down of public space and dispossession from place. The ...
Evolution of star formation in the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey Field - II : Star formation as a function of stellar mass between z=1.46 and z=0.63
(2015-12-01)
We present new results on the evolution of the cosmic star formation rate as a function of stellar mass in the SXDS-UDS field. We make use of narrow-band selected emission line galaxies in four redshift slices between z = ...
The star formation history of BCGs to z = 1.8 from the SpARCS/SWIRE survey : evidence for significant in situ star formation at high redshift
(2015-12-01)
We present the results of an MIPS-24 μm study of the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) of 535 high-redshift galaxy clusters. The clusters are drawn from the Spitzer Adaptation of the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey, which ...
Mucoadhesion and mucosa-mimetic materials - a mini-review
(2015-11-30)
Mucoadhesion describes an attractive interaction between dosage form and mucosal membrane. The evaluation of mucoadhesive excipients often requires the use of ex vivo mucosal tissues taken from laboratory animals. These ...
