Radial-velocity fitting challenge : II. First results of the analysis of the data set
(2017-02-14)
Context. Radial-velocity (RV) signals arising from stellar photospheric phenomena are the main limitation for precise RV measurements. Those signals induce RV variations an order of magnitude larger than the signal created ...
Doctorateness: where should we look for evidence?
(Routledge, 2017-02-14)
This chapter considers the possibility of an “institutional theory of artistic research”. It proposes four distinct quadrants in which one might look for evidence for such a theory, which needs to have the capacity to ...
ECMO simulation and beyond
(2017-02-14)
The last couple of decades has brought a lot of changes in thoughts and technology in the domain of simulation-based healthcare education, ranging from emergency preparedness using screen-based technology to the practice ...
Design and implementation of a modular ECMO simulator
(2017-02-14)
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-complexity life-saving procedure riddled with mechanical complications that can place the patient in a critical state where fast and coordinated actions are required to ...
Using thermochromic ink for medical simulations
(2017-02-14)
Background: In medical simulation and training, blood is used to exhibit its different behaviors in context. In some cases, blood color differential is an imperative visual effect to ensure high-fidelity training and ...
Qatar welcomes the Extracorporeal Life Support Organisation South and West Asia Chapter 2017 Conference
(2017-02-14)
Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) is saving an increasing number of lives worldwide, 1 so it is a great pleasure to welcome for the first time in Qatar the South and West Asia Chapter (SWAC) of the Extracorporeal Life ...
ECMO transport simulation
(2017-02-14)
Transfer and retrieval of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) patients is an aspect of a severe respiratory failure (SRF) service, which has generally low volume and high risk thus necessitating attention to particular ...
Orion revisited III. The Orion Belt population
(2017-02-13)
This paper continues our study of the foreground population to the Orion molecular clouds. The goal is to characterize the foreground population north of NGC 1981 and to investigate the star formation history in the large ...
Transatlantic trade and investment partnership (TTIP) and the spill overs effects on the Gulf – cooperation council
(2017-02-13)
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the transatlantic trade and investment partnership (TTIP). The EU and the USA are negotiating the TTIP, a trade agreement that aims to remove trade barriers across different ...
Developing teachers as leaders of science in primary schools
(Association for Science Education (ASE), 2017-02-12)
Children’s experiences of science at primary school inform their decisions about studying science post-16, which impacts on the supply of STEM professionals. In England, the Primary Science Quality Mark (PSQM) award programme ...
