Injuries in sailboard enthusiasts.

This study was carried out to determine the rate and types of injuries experienced by boardsailors. Results derive from: (a) a review of hospital medical records for water sports injuries, and (b) a questionnaire-interview of 73 athletes windsurfing on waters in the Galveston area during a hurricane and in moderate and light wind conditions. Windsurfers reported 0.22 injuries per 1,000 particip...

Faddists and enthusiasts

This paper constructs a model of the recorded music market to investigate the consequences of local content requirements in broadcasting for the ‘internationalization’ of domestic music. We model the entry decisions of bands, the contracting decisions of record companies, the airplay decisions of radio stations and the radio listening and recording purchasing decisions of consumers. We show tha...

Stimulating News for Mea Enthusiasts

So far, we primarily used voltage-controlled stimuli of varying strength and duration. Experiments with current-controlled pulses are underway. It is worth noting that while modellers prefer current-controlled pulses because they are easier to interpret biophysically, some of the best results in the field have been achieved using voltage-controlled stimuli. Real-world stimulus waveforms are nev...

Antimonide-based pN terahertz mixer diodes

High frequency pN heterojunction diodes with cutoff frequencies over 1 THz have been fabricated using narrow bandgap high-mobility semiconductors. The pN heterojunction is composed of a 30 nm thick p-type In0.27Ga0.73Sb alloy and a 130 nm thick In0.69Al0.31As0.41Sb0.59 n-layer. A high-mobility n-type InAs0.66Sb0.34 contact layer is used to connect the mesa diode to a metal Ohmic contact. These ...
