Hydraulic characterization of Diesel and water emulsions using momentum flux
(2015-12-15)
Diesel and water emulsions have the potential to be used in compression ignition engines to control the emissions of NOx and PM. Very little is known about the influence emulsification will have on the fuel sprays formed ...
Guidance and tool to support farmers in taking aware decisions on Ecological Focus Areas : Final report for Project JRC/IPR/2014/H.4/0022/NC
(Joint Research Centre (JRC), European Commission, 2015-12-15)
Farming has a significant role to play in the delivery of a number of desirable outcomes, including ecosystem services and biodiversity. Regardless of past agri-environmental policy and its intentions, there are still ...
The transition experiences of an international postgraduate student: Her narrative
(2015-12-15)
In this article I focus on some of the educational transition experiences and consequent coping mechanisms of a former student of mine, Berenice. She was one of five Master’s students who participated in my doctoral research ...
Interventions that support the creation of dementia friendly environments in health care : protocol for a realist review
(2015-12-14)
Improving health-care outcomes for people living with dementia when they are admitted to hospital is a policy priority. Dementia friendly interventions in health care promote inclusion of patients and carers in decision-making ...
The VMC survey - XVIII : Radial dependence of the low-mass, 0.57-0.82 Msun stellar mass function in the galactic globular cluster 47 Tucanae
(2015-12-14)
We use near-infrared observations obtained as part of the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) Survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC), as well as two complementary Hubble Space Telescope (HST) data ...
Centaurus A: constraints on the nature of the giant lobe filaments from XMM-Newton observations
(2015-12-11)
We report on deep XMM-Newton observations of the vertex filament in the southern giant lobe of the Fanaroff-Riley class I radio galaxy Centaurus A. We find no X-ray excess from the filament region and place a 3 sigma upper ...
Extended H2 emission line sources from UWISH2
(2015-12-11)
We present the extended source catalogue for the UKIRT Wide Field Infrared Survey for H2 (UWISH2). The survey is unbiased along the inner Galactic Plane from l≈357deg to l≈65deg and |b| ≤ 1 ∘.5 and covers 209 deg2. A further ...
Finding the imprints of stellar encounters in long-period comets
(2015-12-11)
The Solar system's Oort cloud can be perturbed by the Galactic tide and by individual passing stars. These perturbations can inject Oort cloud objects into the inner parts of the Solar system, where they may be observed ...
