Orbital Decay in M82 X-2
(2022-10-05)M82 X-2 is the first pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source discovered. The luminosity of these extreme pulsars, if isotropic, implies an extreme mass transfer rate. An alternative is to assume a much lower mass transfer ... -
The orbital period of V458 Vulpeculae, a post-double common-envelope nova
(2010)We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy of V458 Vulpeculae (Nova Vul 2007 No. 1) spread over a period of 15 months starting 301 d after its discovery. Our data reveal radial-velocity variations in the He II lambda ... -
Order or Disorder? Impaired Hebb Learning in Dyslexia
(2011-09)The present study offers an integrative account proposing that dyslexia and its various associated cognitive impairments reflect an underlying deficit in the long-term learning of serial-order information, here operationalized ... -

Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams, Pigeonhole Formulas and Beyond
(2010)Groote and Zantema proved that a particular OBDD computation of the pigeonhole formula has exponential size, and that limited OBDD derivations cannot simulate resolution polynomially. Here we show that an arbitrary OBDD ... -
OREGIN collection of oilseed rape fungal pathogen isolates managed by a relational database accessible to stakeholders via the Internet
(IOBC, 2006)One aim of the Defra-funded Oilseed Rape Genetic Improvement Network (OREGIN) is to establish, characterise and catalogue a collection of Leptosphaeria maculans (phoma stem canker) and Pyrenopeziza brassicae (light leaf ... -
Organic Chemical Characterization of Decomposing Plant Litter : A Comparison of Methods
(2013-12-16)There are two common methods to characterize organic chemical composition of decomposing plant litter, a forest products method and a forage fiber method. These methods divide litter into a few fractions based on extractions ... -
