چکیده
L aw enforcement officials have consistently ranked the development of remote weapons detection technology as a top priority. Thus when President Clinton read an article by the eminent public policy analyst James Q. Wilson on “What To Do About Crime” in Commentary magazine, he marked two key passages for review and action. Wilson pointed out that although firearms play a key role in rising violence in the Nation, he saw no politically or legally feasible way to reduce the number of guns enough to have a real impact on crime. However, Wilson noted that research was under way to develop technologies that would enable police and other law enforcement officials to detect concealed weapons from a distance, making it easier to identify those involved in criminal activity.

Binaural beat stimulation - a non-invasive method for inducing zebrafish growth
An initial experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effects of binaural beats on fish growth performance. A 90-day trial with four triplicate groups was conducted with 240 zebrafish, Danio rerio, under aquarium conditions. Binaural beat file complexes were played for each aquarium using computer controlled directional speakers for 0 min d-1(Control), 90 min d-1(Group 1), 180 min d-1 (Gr...
متن کاملSwimming in the sea hare Aplysia brasiliana: Cost of transport, parapodial morphometry, and swimming behavior
The energetics and behavior of the parapodial-swimming Aplysia brasiliana were investigated in order to compare net cost of transport (COTnet) between swimming and crawling, and to compare transport costs with other swimmers. Oxygen consumption (VO2) increased with increasing animal mass for resting, crawling, and swimming animals. Slopes of the regressions of log VO2 on log mass were 0.90, 0.9...

متن کاملTransient behavior of sea urchin sperm flagella following an abrupt change in beat frequency.
Within the approximate range of 30-80 Hz, the flagellar beat frequency of a sea urchin sperm held by its head in the tip of a micropipet is governed by the vibration frequency of the micropipet. We have imposed abrupt changes in flagellar beat frequency by changing the vibration frequency of the micropipet within this range and used a high-speed video system to analyze the flagellar wave parame...
