Propeller vs . Magnetar Concepts for SGR / AXPs Richard
Two lines of thought exist as to the nature of Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs) and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs). On the one hand, Duncan & Thompson (1992) and Thompson & Duncan (1995) propose neutron stars with super-critical (> 10 14 G) magnetic fields, which spin-down the stars and power the gamma-ray bursts. On the other hand, Perna & Hernquist 2001) propose neutron stars with typical puls...
متن کاملNew Evidence for Proton Cyclotron Resonance in a Magnetar Strength Field from Sgr 1806-20
A great deal of evidence has recently been gathered in favor of the picture that Soft Gamma Repeaters and Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars are powered by ultra-strong magnetic fields (B> 1014 G; i.e. magnetars). Nevertheless, present determination of the magnetic field in such magnetar candidates has been indirect and model dependent. A key prediction concerning magnetars is the detection of ion cyclotr...
متن کاملIs Timed Branching Bisimilarity a Congruence Indeed?
We show that timed branching bisimilarity as defined by Van der Zwaag [17] and Baeten and Middelburg [2] is not an equivalence relation, in case of a dense time domain. We propose an adaptation based on Van der Zwaag’s definition, and prove that the resulting timed branching bisimilarity is an equivalence indeed. Furthermore, we prove that in case of a discrete time domain, Van der Zwaag’s defi...
متن کاملMental illness is indeed a myth
This chapter offers a novel defence of Szasz’s claim that mental illness is a myth by bringing to bear a standard type of thought experiment used in philosophical discussions of the meaning of natural kind concepts. This makes it possible to accept Szasz’s conclusion that mental illness involves problems of living, some of which may be moral in nature, while bypassing the debate about the meani...
متن کاملSoftware Engineering is indeed in a crisis
The IEEE defines software engineering as, "The application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software; that is, the application of engineering to software." As software is the result of software engineering, if software is in crisis then software engineering itself is in crisis. We argue that software engineering is indeed in c...
