    • The Management of Innovation: the Innovator's Perception 

      Bevis, K.; Randle, K.R. (International Society for Professional Innovation, 2009-06)
      Much has been written about what innovation is, its purpose and how it is or should be managed. This paper investigates innovation from the bottom up, exploring the views and aspirations of a group of practitioners. Working ...

    • FUSE Observations of EC14026 Stars 

      Chayer, P.; Fontaine, G.; Fontaine, M.; Lamontagne, R.; Wesemael, F.; Dupuis, J.; Heber, U.; Napiwotzki, R.; Moehler, S. (2004)
      We present a FUSE abundance analysis of EC14026 stars. We compare the abundances of heavy elements in the atmospheres of EC14026 stars to non-pulsating stars with similar atmospheric parameters, and investigate whether ...

    • HS 2333 + 3927: a new sdB binary with a large reflection effect 

      Karl, C.; Heber, U.; Drechsel, H.; Napiwotzki, R.; Altmann, M.; Ostensen, R.; Folkes, S.; Solheim, J.E.; Cordes, O.; Voss, B.; Koester, D. (2004)
      We report the discovery of a binary, HS 2233 + 3927, consisting of an sdB star with a faint companion. From its lightcurve the orbital period of 14,844 s, the mass ratio, the inclination, and other system parameters are ...

    • Evolution and Mass Loss of AGB Stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud 

      Blommaert, J.A.D.L.; Trams, N.R.; Okumura, K.; Groenewegen, M.A.T.; van Loon, J.T.; Waters, L.B.F.M.; Cioni, M-R.L.; Habing, H.J.; Zijlstra, A.A.; Loup, C. (1997)

    • A Microwave Jet Inside the Rosette Nebula? 

      Tsivilev, A.P.; Cortiglioni, S.; Cioni, M-R.L.; Orsini, M.; Palazzi, E.; Palumbo, G.G.C. (1998)

    • Circumnuclear Star-forming Regions in barred Galaxies 

      Knapen, J.; Laine, S.; Relano, M. (1999)
      We present high-resolution Hα velocity fields and rotation curves of the circum nuclear star-forming regions of five barred galaxies. Two of the five objects show substantially smaller initial rises than the three others; ...

    • Circumnuclear Star Formation in M100 

      Ryder, S.D.; Knapen, J. (2001)
      Near-infrared (JHK) images of the nucleus of the barred spiral galaxy M100 (NGC 4321) have been obtained using a high-bandwidth tip-tilt secondary and fast guider system on the 3.8 m United Kingdom Infrared Telescope ...

    • Grand-design spirals in the core of NGC 5248 

      Laine, S.; Knapen, J.; Perez-Ramirez, D.; Doyon, R.; Nadeau, D. (2001)
      We report the detection of a bisymmetric nuclear spiral structure in the spiral galaxy NGC 5248.The two red spiral arms can be followed for about 3 arcsec, before they appear to end inside the radius of the circumnuclear ...

    • Arm and Interarm star formation in spiral galaxies 

      Stedman, S.; Knapen, J. (2001)
      We present an outline of our study of the effects of star formation on the different components of the interstellar medium in the discs of spiral galaxies, both globally and as a function of arm and interarm environment. ...

    • Circumnuclear Regions and their Barred Host Galaxies 

      Perez-Ramirez, D.; Knapen, J.; Laine, S. (2001)
      In this paper we present first results from an observational study of the connection between the global parameters of barred galaxies and the appearance of structures, such as dust lanes and star-forming rings in their ...

    • Gravitationally induced inflow in Starbursts and Agn 

      Knapen, J. (2005)
      There is considerable evidence that the circumnuclear regions of galaxies are intimately related to their host galaxies, most directly through their bars. There is also convincing evidence for relations between the properties ...

    • Stellar and Gas Kinematics in the core and bar regions of M100 

      Allard, E.L.; Peletier, R.F.; Knapen, J. (2005)
      Two-dimensional maps of the stellar and gas kinematics of the bar and starbursting circumnuclear region in the barred spiral galaxy M100 are presented. In this progress report, we present maps of the total intensity, mean ...

    • At least they're learning something : the hazy line between collusion and collaboration 

      Barrett, R.; Cox, A. (2005)
      This paper reports the results of a study which investigated whether there is a common understanding of the terms plagiarism and collusion between students and staff. Participants made judgements on scenarios describing ...

    • Barred galaxies : Stars and Bars 

      Knapen, J. (2005)
      Bars are prominent features that occur in most disc galaxies and have important dynamical effects on their hosts. This paper describes some of the known properties of bars, illustrating the discussion with images that show ...
