We have developed a new method for the fast computation of wavelengths and oscillator strengths for medium-Z atoms and ions, up to iron, at neutron star magnetic field strengths. The method is a parallelized Hartree-Fock approach in adiabatic approximation based on finite-element and B-spline techniques. It turns out that typically 15–20 finite elements are sufficient to calculate energies to w...

many health systems have traditionally adopted a view of mental disorders based on pathologies and the risk individuals have towards mental disorders. however, with this approach, mental disorders continue to cost billions a year for the healthcare system. this paper aimed to introduce and explore what the strengths-based approach is in the psychiatric arena. strengths-based approach moves the ...

Aims. This work reports radiative transition rates and electron impact excitation rate coefficients for levels of the n= 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 configurations of Ca ii. Methods. The radiative data were computed using the Thomas-Fermi-Dirac central potential method in the frozen core approximation and includes the polarization interaction between the valence electron and the core using a model potenti...

Abstract The network approach poses an alternative focus to understand psychological constructs as emerging from mutual interactions among indicators. Network psychometrics has been applied psychopathology unravel the connections between symptoms, but it can also be study of well-being. role character strengths in mental health is at forefront research attention. Previous findings suggest that ...

Extending from the organizing crime perspective, we study how legitimate world actors contribute to structuring a criminal network. This focus also underscores the facilitating role that some participants have in criminal settings. Based on a case study of an illegal drug importation network that was monitored by law-enforcement investigators over a two-year period, we find that although most l...

Inspired by a similar use in provability logic, formulas pÂB q and p <B q are introduced in the existing logical framework for discussing beliefs to express that the strength of belief in p is greater than (or equal to) that in q. This explicit mention of the comparison in the logical language aids in defining several other concepts in a uniform way, viz. older and rather clear concepts like th...

A large number of clinical research studies are conducted, including audits of patient data, observational studies, clinical trials and those based on laboratory analyses. While small studies can be published over a short time-frame, there needs to be a balance between those that can be performed quickly and those that should be based on more subjects and hence may take several years to complet...
