The Mt. Wilson synoptic program of solar magnetic observations carried out at the 150-foot tower scans the solar disk one to twenty times per day. As part of this program, the radius is determined as an average distance between the image center and the point where the intensity in the FeI line at 525:0nm drops to 25% of its value at disk center. This record extends back to 1967. We have carried...

The topic covered in this project is face detection in a single image, which means no temporal information can be utilized from consecutive frames in a video. The task of face detection in a single image is to detect the existence of human face in an arbitrary image and show the location if faces exist. This is nontrivial because there are several challenges associated with it. As many other ob...

A eletrodeposição de filmes finos de um derivado da indenodiona em eletrodo de carbono vítreo modificado por nanotubos de carbono de paredes múltiplas (ECV-NTCPM), mostra um par de picos com características de confinamento em superfície. O eletrodo de carbono vítreo modificado por NTCPM e pela indenodiona (ECV-NTCPMI) apresenta uma alta atividade catalítica para a eletro-oxidação de hidroxilami...

The present study examined the dose-dependent effect of vitamin E in reversing bone loss in ovariectomized (Ovx) rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were either Sham-operated (Sham) or Ovx and fed control diet for 120 days to lose bone. Subsequently, rats were divided into 5 groups (n = 12/group): Sham, Ovx-control, low dose (Ovx + 300 mg/kg diet; LD), medium dose (Ovx + 525 mg/kg diet; MD), and high dos...

This paper examined the e€ects of work and family stressors and con ̄icts on Air Force women's mental health and functioning. We analyzed data from a 1993 survey of representative strati®ed samples of 525 Air Force women from the active duty reserve and guard forces. The analyses of the data are guided by the comprehensive model of work±family con ̄ict that has been tested by Frone, Russell, and ...

Translucency of human dental enamel was determined by total transmittance of wavelengths from 400 to 700 nm. The transmission coefficient at 525 nm was 0.481 mm-1. Total transmission of light through human dental enamel increased with increasing wavelength. Human tooth enamel is more translucent at higher wavelengths. The translucency of wet human enamel and enamel after dehydration was also me...
