Alan Pears originally trained as an engineer and educator. He was worked in the sustainable energy area since the late 1970s. During the 1980s, he worked for the Victorian government, implementing appliance energy labelling and dwelling insulation regulations, among many projects. Since 1991 he has been a consultant, and has been involved across the spectrum of energy efficiency issues, from de...

We show that Gentzen’s sequent calculus admits generalization of semi-terms of particularly simple form. This theorem extends one of the main results in [BS95] to languages L with functions of arbitrary arity and the central result in [KP88] to semi-terms.

Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive compounds that are prepared by a radiopharmasist and used in Nuclear Medicine departments for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes of human diseases. They are generally used i.v. so they have to be sterile and apyrogenic like other parenteral drugs. Effecting in a correct way and localising in the desired tissue with a sufficient amount, physicians and Nuclear...

We wish to respond to the commentary of de la Iglesia et al. [1]. Studies comparing sleep in different communities have different goals. One frequent goal has been to determine how sleep is affected by manipulating specific 'modern' conditions. Many studies have investigated the effect of artificial light and electronic entertainment. Such studies have clearly shown that light, particularly blu...

Why do we go to sleep late and struggle to wake up on time? Historically, light-dark cycles were dictated by the solar day, but now humans can extend light exposure by switching on artificial lights. We use a mathematical model incorporating effects of light, circadian rhythmicity and sleep homeostasis to provide a quantitative theoretical framework to understand effects of modern patterns of l...

It had been known that narcotics are more soluble in fats and oils than in water. With this in mind, yon Bibra and Hatless, 1 in 1847, carried on a series of experiments on rabbits. Half the animals were anesthetized, and the other half were used as controls. All the animals were killed and the fat content of the brains and livers was determined quantitatively by extraction with alcohol and eth...
