Under certain conditions, high temperature electrons di€using across the separatrix near the midplane can propagate to the divertor without collision and produce a high energy tail in the electron distribution function near the separatrix. We evaluate a kinetic criterion along the ®eld using measurements from divertor Thomson scattering and compare temperature measurements from target plate Lan...

Although a fairly new topic in the context of cyber security, situation awareness (SA) has a far longer history of study and applications in such areas as control of complex enterprises and in conventional warfare. Far more is known about the SA in conventional military conflicts, or adversarial engagements, than in cyber ones. By exploring what is known about SA in conventional – also commonly...

introduction: nickel is found in varies industrial processes such as electroplating, leather tanning, cement preservations, paints and pigments, textile, steel fabrication and canning industries. it is proved that ni(ii) has several health hazards such as carcinogenic. the aim of this study was the evaluation of ni(ii)adsorption on apple peel granola from aqueous solution. material and methods:...

PURPOSE To determine diagnostic accuracy of kinetic visual field assessment by Octopus 900 perimetry compared with Goldmann perimetry. METHODS Prospective cross section evaluation of 40 control subjects with full visual fields and 50 patients with known visual field loss. Comparison of test duration and area measurement of isopters for Octopus 3, 5, and 10°/sec stimulus speeds. Comparison of ...

This paper presents region-based a ne motion parameter clustering methods by motion-vector and intensity matching to provide improved robustness and alignment of motion boundaries with real object boundaries. Regions may be formed as xedor variable-size rectangular blocks, triangular patches, or arbitrary-shaped areas de ned by color or texture uniformity. A particular combination of these a ne...

We prove the existence of a solution to the degenerate parabolic Cauchy problem with a possibly unbounded Radon measure as an initial data. To accomplish this, we establish a priori estimates and derive a compactness result. We also show that the result is optimal in the Euclidian setting.

I prove that the solutions of the phase-field equations, on a subsequence, converge to a weak solution of the Mullins-Sekerka problem with kinetic undercooling. The method is based on energy estimates, a monotonicity formula, and the equipartition of the energy at each time. I also show that for almost all t, the limiting interface is ( d 1)-rectifiable with a square-integrable mean-curvature v...

The Copernican principle remains largely unproven at Gpc radial scale and above. Generally, violations of this type cause a first-order anisotropic kinetic Sunyaev Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect. Here we show that, if large-scale radial inhomogeneities have amplitude large enough to explain the 'dark energy' phenomena, the induced kSZ power spectrum will be orders of magnitude larger than the Atacama ...
