Precision radial velocities of 15 M5-M9 dwarfs
(2014-04-11)
We present radial velocity measurements of a sample ofM5V-M9Vstars from our Red-Optical Planet Survey, operating at 0.652-1.025 μm. Radial velocities for 15 stars, with rms precision down to 2.5m-1 over a week-long time-scale, ...
Measurement of the angular distribution of fission fragments using a PPAC assembly at CERN n-TOF
(2014-04-11)
A fission reaction chamber based on Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters (PPACs) was built for measuring angular distributions of fragments emitted in neutron-induced fission of actinides at the neutron beam available at the ...

This article provides an insight into the role of a full-time supervisor of midwives (SoM) at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT). The role was the first of its kind in London and was ...
Immersive clinical simulation in undergraduate health care interprofessional education : knowledge and perceptions
(2014-04-02)
Background: Interprofessional simulation at the undergraduate level has been tested but is still very scarcely used due to curriculum and logistical issues. Over a 3-year period we have conducted extracurricular immersive ...
The Radio Continuum-Star Formation Rate Relation in WSRT SINGS Galaxies
(2014-04-02)
We present a study of the spatially resolved radio continuum–star formation rate (RC–SFR) relation using stateof-the-art star formation tracers in a sample of 17 THINGS galaxies. We use SFR surface density (ΣSFR) maps ...
