Superbubble dynamics in globular cluster infancy. I. How do globular clusters first lose their cold gas?
(2012-10-05)
The picture of the early evolution of globular clusters has been significantly revised in recent years. Current scenarios require at least two generations of stars of which the first generation (1G), and therefore also the ...
Small Change? : Emily Post’s Etiquette (1922-2011)
(Continuum, 2012-10-04)
In the contemporary book market, non-fiction genres such as biography and self-help command considerable sales, yet ‘bestseller’ is still a term primarily associated with fiction (the nature of that fiction is explored in ...
Neo-vascularization of the stroke cavity by implantation of human neural stem cells on VEGF-releasing PLGA microparticles
(2012-10)
Replacing the tissue lost after a stroke potentially provides a new neural substrate to promote recovery. However, significant neurobiological and biotechnological challenges need to be overcome to make this possibility ...
Nutritional and performance comparisons between British and American football players
(2012-10)
To date there are no published studies which have researched British American football athletes, nor are there any studies comparing them against National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) football athletes. PURPOSE: ...
The brightest pure-H ultracool white dwarf
(2012-10)
We report the identification of LSR J0745+2627 in the United Kingdom InfraRed Telescope Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS) as a cool white dwarf with kinematics and age compatible with the thick-disk/halo ...
Parenting self-efficacy, parenting stress and child behaviour before and after a parenting programme.
(2012-10)
Aim: To explore whether changes in parenting self-efficacy after attending a parenting programme are related to changes in parenting stress and child behaviour. Background: Adverse parenting is a risk factor in the development ...
Path description of type B q-characters
(2012-10)
We give a set of sufficient conditions for a Laurent polynomial to be the q-character of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of a quantum affine group. We use this result to obtain an explicit path description ...
Alleviating the non-ultralocality of the AdS5 ×S5 superstring
(2012-10)
We generalize the initial steps of the Faddeev-Reshetikhin procedure to the AdS5 ×S5 superstring theory. Specifically, we propose a modification of the Poisson bracket whose alleviated non-ultralocality enables to write ...
An Adaptive Access Control Model with Privileges Overriding and Behaviour Monitoring in Wireless Sensor Networks
(ACM Press, 2012-10)
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have attracted a lot of interest in the research community because of their wide range of applications. Due to the distributed nature of WSNs and their deployment in remote areas, these ...
Incidence of dsRNA mycoviruses in a collection of Aspergillus fumigatus isolates
(2012-10)
A collection of clinical and environmental isolates of the opportunistic human pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus, were screened for the presence of mycoviruses and 6.6 % of 366 isolates contained dsRNA segments ranging in ...
