Radial electron heat transport in a low-collisionality, current-carrying resistive plasma confined in an axisymmetric toroidal magnetic field is hypothesized to be caused by the paleoclassical collisional processes of parallel electron heat conduction and radial magnetic-field diffusion. The electron distribution is Maxwellianized and the electron temperature equilibrated over a long length L t...

We focus on the estimation of radial lens distortion utilizing vanishing points detected in single images. Recent methods for vanishing point detection either ignore radial distortion completely, or assume only weak distortion, which is accounted for after vanishing point estimation. Unfortunately, if strong radial distortion is present the effects are detrimental to the extraction of vanishing...

The ultrastructure of the radial neuromuscular system of the trachymedusa Liriope tetraphylla was examined to determine the morphological substrate underlying crumpling behavior--the folding of the margin into the subumbrellar cavity by radial muscle contraction. These contractions are produced by the four smooth muscle bands that run the length of the peduncle and extend over the subumbrellar ...

Introduction and Background: Radial grabens at Tharsis record crustal extension due to the load [1−3]. However their development and significance beyond 2-D strain estimates are largely unknown. For example, early Viking-based strain models required two separate phases of Tharsis loading to produce the “inner” and “outer” radial grabens [4,5]. In contrast, recent MGS-based stress models for Tha...

A linkage is a collection of line segments, called bars, possibly joined at their ends, called joints. We consider flattening a tree-like linkage, that is, a continuous motion of their bars from an initial configuration to a final configuration looking like a“straight line segment,” preserving the length of each bar and not crossing any two bars. In this paper, we introduce a new class of linka...

Results are presented from probe measurements at the outboard midplane scrapeoff layer region of TCV current scan experiments. It is shown that with decreasing plasma current, or increasing magnetic connection length, the radial particle density profile becomes broader and the fluctuation levels and turbulence driven radial transport increases. In the far scrape-off layer the fluctuations exhib...

We predict the loss of superfluidity in a Bose-Einstein condensate in an axially symmetric harmonic trap alone during resonant collective oscillations via a classical dynamical transition. The forced resonant oscillation can be initiated by (a) a periodic modulation of the atomic scattering length with a frequency that equals twice the radial trapping frequency or multiples thereof, or by (b) a...

Extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) sarcomere length was measured in seven patients using intraoperative laser diffraction. Sarcomere length was measured with the forearm in one of four positions: wrist in neutral with regard to radial-ulnar deviation and forearm in neutral rotation, wrist in ulnar deviation and forearm in neutral rotation, wrist in neutral and forearm in pronation, and wrist...
