Pulsar motions in our Galaxy from their birth until 2 Gyr are studied statistically via Monte-Carlo simulation of 2 × 10 pulsars with the best available representation of the Galactic potential. We find that the distribution of height above the Galactic plane for pulsars with characteristic ages less than about 8 Myr could be well fitted by a Gaussian function. For older pulsars, an extra expon...

The assessment of the powers of body measurements in the estimation of weights and the accuracies of body weights in the estimation of size among livestock species has been widely reported. Body weight is the commonly reported measure of size (Fitzhugh & Bradford, 1983). The reliability of single measurements such as wither height, body length, heart girth, rump height and width e.t.c. in the e...

OBJECTIVES Height is known as an index that reflects the environment of the fetal, childhood, and adolescent periods, which affect adult health. This study was conducted to elucidate whether height is associated with cognitive impairment in community-dwelling elders in Korea. METHODS The study subjects were recruited among community dwelling elderly individuals aged 65 or over who participate...

In this technical report we present an analysis of the complexity of a class of algorithms. These algorithms recursively explore a binary tree and need to make two recursive calls for one of the subtrees and only one for the other. We derive the complexity of these algorithms in the worst and in the best case and show the tree structures for which these cases happen. 1 The Problem Let us consid...

Let V be a non-singular surface defined over Q which is embedded in projective space P by means of anticanonical divisors, and let U be the open subset of V obtained by deleting the lines on V . For any point P in U(Q) denote by h(P ) the height of P . In this paper h will usually be the standard height h1(P ) = max(|x0|, . . . , |xn|) where P = (x0, . . . , xn) for integers xi with highest com...

Purpose: To assess the reliability of neurocognitive and functional performance tests in athletes with and without functional ankle instability (FAI). Methods: In this methodological study, 20 athletes with unilateral functional ankle instability (mean age [SD]: 23.40[2.58] y; mean height[SD]: 1.77[0.11] m; mean weight[SD]: 67.00[13.18] kg) and 20 uninjured athletes (mean age[SD]: 23.05[2.72] ...

OBJECTIVE Lung function tests have become an integral part of assessment of pulmonary disease. As few studies on pulmonary function tests have been carried out in young children in India, the study was carried out in normal urban and rural school children in Ludhiana district of North India to determine pulmonary functions in the age group 6-15 years and to find its correlation with regards to ...

Abstract The Cs 2 LiYCl 6 :Ce crystal (CLYC) is an inorganic scintillator which has been developed for the γ-ray and neutron measurement with high detection efficiency, resolution, no need unfolding technique. To enhance of fast neutron, CLYC 7 Li-enrichment (CLYC7) developed. In this work, response CLYC7 detector to obtained using 137 calibration source calculated Monte Carlo N-Particle transp...
