'Introduction' to Sulayman Al Bassam, The Arab Shakespeare Trilogy
(Bloomsbury Academic, 2014-09-25)
Introduction to this collection of Sulayman Al-Bassam's adaptations of Shakespeare - Hamlet, Richard III, Twelfth Night - collectively known as the Arab Shakespeare Trilogy
A Visual History of The Future
(Government Office for Science, 2014-09-25)
This paper is concerned with how future cities have been visualised between 1900 and 2014, what these projections sought to communicate and why. The paper is organised into eight sections. Each of the first seven sections ...
A low H I column density filament in NGC 2403 : signature of interaction or accretion
(2014-09-25)
Observed H i accretion around nearby galaxies can only account for a fraction of the gas supply needed to sustain the currently observed star formation rates. It is possible that additional accretion occurs in the form of ...
Cross-section measurement of the Ba 130 (p,γ) La 131 reaction for γ -process nucleosynthesis
(2014-09-25)
Background: Deviations between experimental data of charged-particle-induced reactions and calculations within the statistical model are frequently found. An extended data base is needed to address the uncertainties regarding ...
Aerosol optical and microphysical retrievals from a hybrid multiwavelength lidar data set - DISCOVER-AQ 2011
(2014-09-24)
Retrievals of aerosol microphysical properties (effective radius, volume and surface-area concentrations) and aerosol optical properties (complex index of refraction and single-scattering albedo) were obtained from a hybrid ...
Are there any first-generation stars in globular clusters today?
(2014-09-22)
Context. Several models compete to explain the abundance properties of stellar populations in globular clusters. One of the main constraints is the present-day ratio of first- and second-generation stars that are currently ...
High proper motion objects from the UKIDSS Galactic plane survey
(2014-09-21)
The UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey (GPS) began in 2005 as a seven year effort to survey ~1800 deg2 of the northern Galactic plane in the J, H, and K passbands. The survey included a second epoch of K-band data, with a baseline ...
A relationship between specific star formation rate and metallicity gradient within z ~ 1 galaxies from KMOS-HiZELS
(2014-09-21)
We have observed a sample of typical z ~ 1 star-forming galaxies, selected from the HiZELS survey, with the new K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph (KMOS) near-infrared, multi-integral field unit instrument on the Very Large ...
A Submillimeter Galaxy Illuminating its Circumgalactic Medium : Ly-alpha Scattering in a Cold, Clumpy Outflow
(2014-09-20)
We report the detection at 850 μm of the central source in SSA22-LAB1, the archetypal "Lyman-α Blob" (LAB), a 100 kpc scale radio-quiet emission-line nebula at z = 3.1. The flux density of the source, S 850 = 4.6 ± 1.1 ...
Sudden traumatic death : the significant and unique contribution of emergency nurses
(2014-09-20)
When a person dies suddenly and in traumatic circumstances, emergency nurses are required to manage the aftermath of the event with competence and sensitivity. Yet minimal education and training exists to enable this ...
