Modeling Nomad-settlement Interactions
نویسنده
چکیده
It is widely assumed that there was a certain degree of economic interdependency between nomadic and sedentary groups in the Bronze Age Near East. Unfortunately, the archaeological and historical evidence for nomadic groups is patchy and incomplete and seldom permits any secure conclusions regarding the nature and consequences of economic interaction between nomadic and sedentary groups. Ethnographic analogy can be carefully employed to fill in some of the missing details, but the effects of long-term economic exchange between these groups remain inadequately understood.

Measurement of the Polarization in Charged Current Interactions in the Nomad Experiment Nomad Collaboration
2 We present a measurement of the polarization of hyperons produced in charged current interactions. The full data sample from the NOMAD experiment has been analyzed using the same V 0 identiication procedure and analysis method reported in a previous paper 1] for the case of hyperons. The polarization has been measured for the rst time in a neutrino experiment. The polarization vector is found...
متن کاملFirst Results from the Nomad Experiment at Cern
NOMAD is a neutrino oscillation experiment designed to search for appearance in the CERN-SPS wide band predominantly beam. Signal detection is based on the identiication of charged current interactions with the help of kinematic criteria. After the completion of the detector in August, 1995 the experiment has been successfully taking data till the end of 1995 and during 1996. The detector perfo...
متن کاملDetermination of settlement trough width and optimization of soil behavior parameters based on the design of experiment method (DOE)
The expansion of the settlement trough is an important factor in the risk assessment of the tunneling induced settlement. The increase of settlement trough requires buildings to be included in the impact zone, which causes damages. This paper conducts estimation of the settlement trough width (STW) using empirical approaches, field measurement data and numerical solutions. The credibility of th...
متن کاملThe MASON HouseholdsWorld Model of Pastoral Nomad Societies
Computational modeling of pastoralist societies that range as nomads over diverse environmental zones poses interesting challenges beyond those posed by sedentary societies. We present HouseholdsWorld, a new agentbased model of agro-pastoralists in a natural habitat that includes deserts, grasslands, and mountains. This is the paper-of-record for the HouseholdsWorld model as part of a broader i...
متن کاملCross-section measurements in the NOMAD experiment
The NOMAD experiment was designed to search for ντ appearance from neutrino oscillations in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam produced by the 450 GeV proton synchrotron. The single-particle reconstruction and lepton identification capability of the NOMAD detector allowed the search for ντ appearance in most of the leptonic and hadronic τ decay channels [1] and also to look for νμ → νe oscillatio...
