Life expectancy, average age of death, and tempo-adjustment
The recent proposal by Bongaarts and Feeney for a tempo-adjustment to life expectancy is assessed using numerical techniques. I find that for a wide variety of situations no such adjustment is necessary provided mortality is observed in a given period. Bongaarts and Feeney assume the force of mortality affecting the mean age of death is not always observed. The present work brings into sharper ...
متن کاملAverage Age at Death of Scientists in Various Specialties
There are large differences in the average age at death of scientists in different specialties whose death-notices appeared in Science from 1958 to 1968. They range from 76.7 for archaeologists to 61.8 for men working with radiation. The average age at death for the entire sample of 2,224 men was 67.7; and 68.1 for the total sample of 93 women. The average age at death was appreciably higher fo...

متن کاملPrioritizing Child Health Interventions in Ethiopia: Modeling Impact on Child Mortality, Life Expectancy and Inequality in Age at Death
BACKGROUND The fourth Millennium Development Goal calls for a two-thirds reduction in under-5 mortality between 1990 and 2015. Under-5 mortality rate is declining, but many countries are still far from achieving the goal. Effective child health interventions that could reduce child mortality exist, but national decision-makers lack contextual information for priority setting in their respective...
متن کاملPulsar Death at an Advanced Age
I summarize the theory of acceleration of non-neutral particle beams by starvation electric fields along the polar magnetic field lines of rotation powered pulsars, including the effect of dragging of inertial frames which dominates the acceleration of a space charge limited beam. I apply these results to a new calculation of the radio pulsar death line, under the hypotheses that pulsar “death”...
