The purpose of the two experiments reported here was to replicate previous research (Thomson, 1983) which suggests that visual information useful in the control of movement persists for up to 8 s after visual occlusion. Contrary to other findings (Thomson, 1980, 1983), little evidence was found for an 8-s visual representation of the environmental layout, indicating there is no substitute for c...

in this study, the possible infection of thomson navel, moro blood sweet orange, page mandarin and webber pomelo with citrus viroids was investigated. biological indexing was performed by grafting on etrog citron (c. medica) and maintained in temperature-controlled greenhouse. after inoculation, rna was extracted by sds– potassium acetate method. detection of citrus viroids was done reverse tra...

Thomson scattering of laser light is one of the most fundamental diagnostics of plasma density, temperature and magnetic fields. It relies on the assumption that the properties in the probed volume are homogeneous and constant during the probing time. On the other hand, laboratory plasmas are seldom uniform and homogeneous on the temporal and spatial dimensions over which data is collected. Thi...

The rapid deformation of liquid and solid materials usually results in temperature changes. This rapid deformation is considered to be a nearly adiabatic process where the heat generated during the deformation changes the temperature of the material. Early experiments showed that metals cooled down on sudden stretching and warmed up upon compression [1]. In 1805, Gough [2] observed that the tem...

In this study, in context of general relativity we consider Einstein, Bergmann-Thomson, Møller and Landau-Lifshitz energy momentum definitions and we compute the total energy distribution (due to matter and fields including gravitation) of the universe based on Szekeres class I and class II space-times. We show that Einstein and Bergmann-Thomson definitions of the energy-momentum complexes give...

We have carried out absolute calibrations of the LHD YAG Thomson scattering system by using Raman scattering and Rayleigh scattering in order to verify the applicability of Rayleigh calibration in the LHD Thomson scattering, and make a comparative study of Raman and Rayleigh calibrations. In the LHD Thomson scattering device, Rayleigh calibration is expected to give more reliable calibration fa...

In order to evaluate the energy distribution (due to matter and fields including gravitation) associated with a space-time model of Szekeres class I and II metrics, we consider the Einstein, Bergmann-Thomson and LandauLifshitz energy and/or momentum definitions in the tele-parallel gravity (the tetrad theory of gravitation). We find the same energy distribution using Einstein and Bergmann-Thoms...

Uniformly distributed point sets on the unit sphere with and without symmetry constraints have been found useful in many scientific and engineering applications. Here, a novel variant of the Thomson problem is proposed and formulated as an unconstrained optimization problem. While the goal of the Thomson problem is to find the minimum energy configuration of N electrons constrained on the surfa...

In this paper, the Joule-Thomson expansion of higher dimensional nonlinearly AdS black hole with power Maxwell invariant source is investigated. The results show coefficient has a zero point and divergent point, which are coincide inversion temperature $T_i$ Hawking temperature, respectively. increases monotonously pressure. For high-pressure region, decreases dimensionality $D$ nonlinearity pa...

I explained that Fleming and Thomson had served in the same Royal Army Medical Corps Research Unit in France in the 1914-18 war. They had become friends and their friendship continued after the war. WWD Thomson became Professor of Medicine in Queen’s University, Belfast. He became very ill and was treated in a Nursing Home in London. The Flemings befriended Mrs Thomson who, having gone to Londo...
