NOTE ON HOT WATER BOTTLE LYSIMETER

Note on the irreducible triangulations of the Klein bottle

We give the complete list of the 29 irreducible triangulations of the Klein bottle. We show how the construction of Lawrencenko and Negami, which listed only 25 such irreducible triangulations, can be modified at two points to produce the 4 additional irreducible triangulations of the Klein bottle.

Evaluation of Macroscopic Root Water Uptake Models Using Lysimeter Data

Three macroscopic root water uptake models (Molz–Remson, Feddes, and Selim–Iskandar) have been widely used in modeling water flow in soil–plant systems. In this article, we use evapotranspiration data and soil water content data obtained from lysimeter measurements and root distribution data obtained in a nearby wheat field to evaluate the accuracy of these root water uptake models in predictin...

A Note on ‘Hot Spot’ Hunting in Deep-Inelastic Scattering

We consider the inclusive cross section for jet production with large transverse momentum in deep-inelastic scattering. This process has been proposed as a probe of small-x physics, particularly the measurement of ‘hot spots’ inside the proton. We present a numerical calculation of this process, taking into account a larger phase space. The theoretical reliability as well as phenomenological un...

Water Temperature From Hot Water Outlets in a Major Public Hospital: How Hot is Our Water?

OBJECTIVES To measure the water temperature issuing from a representative sample of patient-accessible outlets around the Royal Adelaide Hospital. To initiate an audit cycle in the event of unacceptably high water temperatures to ensure their reduction. METHODS Samples were taken of water issuing from hot taps, showers, and hand hygiene basins in patient areas throughout the hospital, encompa...
