Making Light Forces Smaller/More Dispersible Has Benefits But Makes Them More Vulnerable and Less Capable
IN CHAPTER THREE WE EXAMINED some relatively near-term upgrades to improve the capability of light forces when placed in rapid-reaction missions, working mostly with RFPI concepts and technologies within the context of ACTDs. But what would be the impact of changing concepts—for example, making light forces smaller and more dispersed? Given that the dramatic improvements in precision-guided and...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of microsatellite markers for the cleistogamous species Lamium amplexicaule (Lamiaceae)1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Lamium amplexicaule is a cleistogamous plant that produces both closed flowers (obligately self-pollinated) and open flowers (potentially outcrossed). The conditions for the maintenance of such a mating system depend on the outcrossing rate of the open flowers, which can be estimated using neutral microsatellite markers. • METHODS AND RESULTS Forty primer pa...
متن کاملWhy more hadronlike photons produce less particles on nuclear targets
In hadron-nucleus interactions, the stronger is nuclear shadowing in the total cross section the higher is the multiplicity of secondary hadrons. In deep inelastic scattering, nuclear shadowing at small x is associated with the hadronlike behaviour of photons as contrasted to the pointlike behaviour in the non-shadowing region of large x. In this paper we predict smaller mean multiplicity of se...
متن کاملA perspective on manufacturing strategy: Produce more with less
Over the last decade, the manufacturing landscape has changed worldwide. Parts of the traditional manufacturing activities havemoved toworld regions, away from the long-established industrial centres in Western Europe, North America and Japan. The demand for goods has been increased and so has the demand for natural resources and energy. However, since resources and energy are finite, new ways ...
متن کاملAdaptive Advantage of Myrmecochory in the Ant-Dispersed Herb Lamium amplexicaule (Lamiaceae): Predation Avoidance through the Deterrence of Post-Dispersal Seed Predators
Seed dispersal by ants (myrmecochory) is found worldwide, but the benefits that plants obtain from this mutualism remain uncertain. In the present study, we conducted laboratory experiments to demonstrate seed predator avoidance as a benefit of myrmecochory using the annual ant-dispersed herb Lamium amplexicaule, the disperser ant Tetramorium tsushimae, and the seed predatory burrower bug Adome...
