New Galactic star clusters discovered in the disc area of the VVVX survey
(2018-12-11)
The "VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea eXtended (VVVX)" ESO Public Survey is a near-infrared photometric sky survey that covers nearly 1700 sq. deg towards the Galactic disk and bulge. It is well-suited to search for new ...
Tales of Brexits Past and Present : Understanding the Choices, Threats and Opportunities in Our Separation From the EU
(Emerald Publishing, 2018-12-11)
Brexit, which for some is a rebellion against globalism, European and domestic political orders and the establishment, is equally, for many a desire for a return to a world of certainties; whilst for others it’s an expression ...
Parallaxes of southern extremely cool objects III : 118 L and T dwarfs
(2018-12-11)
We present new results from the Parallaxes of Southern Extremely Cool dwarfs program to measure parallaxes, proper motions and multiepoch photometry of L and early T dwarfs. The observations were made on 108 nights over ...
Time Series Analysis using Embedding Dimension on Heart Rate Variability
(2018-12-11)
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the measurement sequence with one or more visible variables of an underlying dynamic system, whose state changes with time. In practice, it is difficult to know what variables determine the ...
Efficient Methods for Calculating Sample Entropy in Time Series Data Analysis
(2018-12-11)
Recently, different algorithms have been suggested to improve Sample Entropy (SE) performance. Although new methods for calculating SE have been proposed, so far improving the efficiency (computational time) of SE calculation ...
JINGLE, a JCMT legacy survey of dust and gas for galaxy evolution studies : I. Survey overview and first results
(2018-12-11)
JINGLE is a new JCMT legacy survey designed to systematically study the cold interstellar medium of galaxies in the local Universe. As part of the survey we perform 850 μm continuum measurements with SCUBA-2 for a ...
The Gaia/IPHAS and Gaia/KIS value-added catalogues
(2018-12-11)
We present a sub-arcsecond crossmatch of Gaia DR2 against the INT Photometric Ha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane Data Release 2 (IPHAS DR2) and the Kepler-INT Survey (KIS). The resulting value-added catalogues (VACs) ...
Enterprise Education Competitions: A Theoretically Flawed Intervention?
(Emerald Publishing, 2018-12-10)
The demand for including enterprise in the education system, at all levels and for all pupils is now a global phenomenon. Within this context, the use of competitions and competitive learning activities is presented as a ...
A journey through narrative inquiry to autoethnography
(Routledge, 2018-12-07)
This article describes my journey of analysing my doctoral data narratively. It starts with the use of narrative inquiry, a research methodology which studies experience as story, and moves to autoethnography, an ...
Probabilistic galactic dynamics I - the Sun and GJ 710 with Monte Carlo, linearised and unscented treatments
(2018-12-07)
Deterministic galactic dynamics is impossible due to the space-time randomness caused by gravitational waves. Instead of treating stellar orbits deterministically, we integrate not only the mean but also the covariance of ...
