Specifier Reports: Photosensors (March 1998)

A photosensor is an electronic control device that adjusts the light output of a lighting system based on detected illuminance. While some photosensors simply switch lights on and off, Specifier Reports: Photosensors focuses on photosensors that are used with dimming electronic ballasts to adjust the light output of fluorescent lighting systems over a continuous range. These photosensors are mo...

Global Tectonic Regionalization for Seismological Data Analysis

A global tectonic regionalization, GTR1, has been constructed for use in seismological studies of aspherical heterogeneity. Three oceanic regions are defined by equal increments in the square root of crustal age (25and lO0-m.y. isochrons), and three continental regions are distinguished according to their generalized tectonic behavior during the Phanerozoic (Precambrian shields and platforms, P...

Op-brhe140373 1917..1919

In recent years the scientific community has shown renewed interest in DISH. The article by Yaniv et al. [1] in this issue of Rheumatology describes the natural evolution of DISH, providing important new insights into this condition. The article presents a study that used CT, a highly sensitive three-dimensional imaging modality for assessing new bone formation, to identify DISH patients and ex...
