Will Your Project Get the Green Light? Predicting the Success of Crowdfunding Campaigns
Capital is always essential for a business project over times. After emerging in 2000, crowdfunding gradually becomes one of the most popular fundraising resources. However, the mechanism of crowdfunding significantly differs from traditional capital-collecting approaches. As long as the amount of pledged money reaches the goal in time, the project succeeds, its initiator receives the funds, th...
متن کاملGreen Bank Telescope Studies of Giant Pulses from Millisecond Pulsars
We have conducted a search for giant pulses from four millisecond pulsars using the 100m Green Bank Telescope. Coherently dedispersed time-series from PSR J0218+4232 were found to contain giant pulses of very short intrinsic duration whose energies follow power-law statistics. The giant pulses are in phase with the two minima of the radio integrated pulse profile but are phase aligned with the ...
متن کاملThings will get better: the anxiety-buffering qualities of progressive hope.
Terror management theory argues that people can cope with the psychological threat of their own death by bolstering faith in their cultural worldviews. Based on the notion that-since the Age of Enlightenment-belief or faith in progress has become one of the defining qualities of modern Western thinking, we expected that this belief serves as a buffer against mortality concerns. Three experiment...
متن کاملThe Green Bank Telescope
Following two months of very successful commissioning and the first science observations on the GBT (see the following articles), operation was suspended in early April, one month earlier than planned, to work on the azimuth track. As described in previous NRAO Newsletters, the azimuth track wear strips, on which the azimuth wheels roll, were shifting slightly in a circumferential direction as ...
متن کاملThe Giant Magellan Telescope Phasing System
The 25 m Giant Magellan Telescope consists of seven circular 8.4 m primary mirror segments with matching segmentation of the Gregorian secondary mirror. Achieving the diffraction limit in the adaptive optics observing modes will require equalizing the optical path between pairs of segments to a small fraction of the observing wavelength. This is complicated by the fact that primary mirror segme...
