We have mapped the [C i] P1– P0 emission at 492 GHz toward the supernova remnant Cas A. We detect [C i] emission from the periphery of the diffuse Photon Dominated Region (PDR) covering the disk of Cas A, as traced by the carbon recombination lines, as well as from the denser PDRs associated with the molecular clouds towards the south-east. [C i] emission is detected from both the Perseus and O...

The purpose of the present study was to create a methodology which can provide information about gaps in an opposing team’s defence. To illustrate the methodology, a defence was tracked during a game in the danish Superliga using ZXY radio tracking and analysed using the methodology. Results showed that at certain passing speeds, an opposing defence is well coordinated with no gaps, but if the ...

Recent evidence from economics and psychology highlights the importance of traits other than general intelligence for success in school and in life (Almlund, Duckworth, Heckman, & Kautz, 2011; Borghans, Duckworth, Heckman, & ter Weel, 2008; Moffitt et al., 2011). Disparities in so-called non-cognitive skills appear to contribute to the academic achievement gap separating wealthy from disadvanta...

Dead wood, in the form of coarse woody debris and standing dead wood, or snags, is an essential structural component of forest ecosystems. It plays a key role in nutrient cycling, ecosystem functions and provision of habitat for a wide variety of species. In order to manage dead wood in a temperate hardwood forest, an understanding of its availability and spatial distribution is important. This...

Should the IS field relinquish its identity and surrender to the social, political and economic forces that are placing IS scholars outside of traditional IS departments and programs? Should IS scholars mesh into competing departments (e.g., marketing and accounting) and schools (e.g., information studies and engineering) instead of seeking placement in a traditional IS department? By touting I...

in this article a graph theoretical approach is employed to study some specifications of dynamic systems with time delay in the inputs and states, such as structural controllability and observability. first, the zero and non-zero parameters of a proposed system have been determined, next the general structure of the system is presented by a graph which is constructed by non-zero parameters. the...

Although dead space is often increased in disease, it is not frequently measured in the clinic. This may reflect that an adequate method as well as reference values are missing. Healthy males and females, n=38, age 20-61 yrs, were connected to a pneumotachograph and a fast CO2 analyser after radial artery catheterization. The physiological dead space was partitioned into airway and alveolar dea...

The established view regarding 'brain death' in medicine and medical ethics is that patients determined to be dead by neurological criteria are dead in terms of a biological conception of death, not a philosophical conception of personhood, a social construction or a legal fiction. Although such individuals show apparent signs of being alive, in reality they are (biologically) dead, though this...

This paper presents some of our requirements for a Z type-checker: that the typechecker accept all well-typeable formulations, however contrived; that it gather information about uses of declarations as needed to support interactive browsing and formal reasoning; that it t the description given by draft standard Z; and that it be able to check some particular extensions to Z that are intended t...

World Population in 2300 (United Nations 2003b), reporting on the proceedings of a December 2003 expert group meeting on long-range population projections and presenting the results of a new set of United Nations population projections,* bears out Hajnal’s argument. Among his three propositions, the validity of the second is the most obvious. There has been a veritable outpouring of demographic...
