As numerous movement options are available in reaching and grasping, of particular interest are what factors influence an individual's choice of action. In the current study a preferential reaching task was used to assess the propensity for right handers to select their preferred hand and grasp a coffee mug by the handle in both independent and joint action object manipulation contexts. Mug loc...

The δ Scuti star X Caeli has been the target of a simultaneous photometric (14 consecutive nights) and spectroscopic campaign (8 consecutive nights). From the analysis of light curves we were able to pick up 17 frequency components, most of which were already detected in two previous campaigns. The comparison with the results of the previous campaigns shows that while some terms are rather stab...

A Pick function of d variables is a holomorphic map from Πd to Π, where Π is the upper halfplane. Some Pick functions of one variable have an asymptotic expansion at infinity, a power series ∑∞ n=1 ρnz −n with real numbers ρn that gives an asymptotic expansion on non-tangential approach regions to infinity. In 1921 H. Hamburger characterized which sequences {ρn} can occur. We give an extension ...
