The maps presented in Paper I are here used to infer the variation of the column densities of HCO, DCO, N2H, and N2D as a function of distance from the dust peak. These results are interpreted with the aid of a crude chemical model which predicts the abundances of these species as a function of radius in a spherically symmetric model with radial density distribution inferred from the observatio...

Learning maps from sensor data has been addressed since more than two decades by Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems. Modern state-of-the-art SLAM approaches exhibit excellent performances and are able to cope with environments having the scale of a city. Usually these methods are entailed for on-line operation, requiring the data to be acquired in a single run, which is not al...

Marginal radial head fractures with displaced fragments are relatively common, especially when associated with a concomitant posterior elbow dislocation. The separated fragments are usually displaced forward and outward into the lateral part of the elbow or proximally in the elbow joint. Ulnar displacement of the separated fragments has been described in few cases, and in most of them treatment...

Given a Lie groupoid G over a manifold M , we show that multiplicative 2forms on G relatively closed with respect to a closed 3-form φ on M correspond to maps from the Lie algebroid of G into T ∗M satisfying an algebraic condition and a differential condition with respect to the φ-twisted Courant bracket. This correspondence describes, as a special case, the global objects associated to φ-twist...

Isopotential maps from 120 normal subjects were obtained from 192 simultaneously recorded electrocardiographic leads. Maps were plotted at 1 msec intervals during the QRS and 5 msec intervals during the ST-T deflection. Repetition of QRS features was evident during all but the first few msec of the initial half of serial T maps. This suggests similarities of the normal sequence of ventricular e...

Histological studies have suggested differing involvement of the hippocampal subfields in ageing and in Alzheimer's disease. The aim of this study was to assess in vivo local hippocampal changes in ageing and Alzheimer's disease based on high resolution MRI at 3 Tesla. T(1)-weighted images were acquired from 19 Alzheimer's disease patients [age 76 +/- 6 years, three males, Mini-Mental State Exa...

With the rapid development of urban transportation, people urgently need high-precision and up-to-date road maps. At the same time, people themselves are an important source of road information for detailed map construction, as they can detect real-world road surfaces with GPS devices in the course of their everyday life. Big trace data makes it possible and provides a great opportunity to extr...

We have observed that Vibroseis wavelets behave very much as if they are minimum phase. This was discovered by applying minimum-phase Wiener deconvolution to the separated vibroseis VSP downgoing waves and observing that the result is effectively a band-limited spike. Motivated by this finding, we simulated a synthetic nonstationary vibroseis wavelet in a constant-Q medium by nonstationary conv...
