We describe an L-band photometric survey of ∼ 0.5 deg2 of the Cha I dark cloud. The survey has a completeness limit of L < 11.0. Our survey detects 124 sources, including all known pre-main sequence stars with L ≤ 11. The fraction of sources with near-IR excess emission is 58% ± 4% for K = 9–11. Cha I sources have bluer H −K and K − L colors than pre-main sequence stars in Taurus-Auriga. These ...

nihāyatu’l- irab fi akhbare’l -fors va’l- arab is the name of a book whose author(s) and the authoring time are uncertain. in compiling this book, authors such as ’amer sha’bi , ayyoub ibn-i gherriyah, abdullah ibn-i moghafa’, asma’i and ab ol-bakhtary have contributed. there are three different speculations concerning the time of authorship: 1) 75 a.h. 2) before the year 142 a.h. 3) around 170...

Examples of non-local phonological processes that are bound by prosodic domains are expected in the world’s phonologies. In other words, we should anticipate cases where the metrical foot constrains vowel harmony. Intuitively, it seems like a natural interaction. However, the notion of vowel harmony bound by the metrical foot has only been sparsely proposed in the literature (Abu-Salim 1987, Hu...

The Melkites, Jacobites, and Nestorians were the main Christian communities under Muslim rule. Several pre-Islamic Arab Christian authors wrote treatises concerning their beliefs in Arabic, some of which date back to the early Islamic centuries. The multiplicity of such polemical works suggests an intellectually open society and a degree of tolerance shown by Muslim leaders. Abu Raʾita...

A high degree of diversity noted in the Neolithic mandibles from Abu Hureyra provided the opportunity to address the problem of the meaning and origin of variability in the population. Mandible morphology is approached bearing in mind cranio-facial interactions. Two morphological patterns were identified in the Abu Hureyra mandible sample. e ABU morph represents the majority, while the ABO mor...

In this note we prove, by using straightforward arguments, a stronger version of a well-known capacity result proved by Abu-Mostafa and St. Jacques. Our results states that no Hoppeld memory can have a \capacity" (in Abu-Mostafa and St. Jacques's sense) exceeding 1, thereby showing the inadequacy of their capacity notion.
