Circular holonomy and clock effects in stationary axisymmetric spacetimes
(American Institute of Physics, 2001)
Stationary axisymmetric spacetimes containing a pair of oppositely rotating periodically intersecting circular geodesics allow us to study the various so-called 'clock effects' by comparing either observer or geodesic proper time periods of orbital...
Observable frequency shifts via spin-rotation coupling
(arXiv, 1998)
required. We draw attention to the relevance of a series of experiments establishing that circularly polarized light, upon passing through a rotating half-wave plate, is changed in frequency by twice the rotation rate. These experiments may be interpreted...
A Firework of H2 Knots in the planetary nebula NGC 7293 (The Helix Nebula)
(American Astronomical Society, 2009)
We present a deep and wide field-of-view (4 × 7 ) image of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula) in the 2.12 μm H2 v = 1 → 0 S(1) line. The excellent seeing (0. 4) at the Subaru Telescope, allows
the details of cometary knots...
Standard clocks, orbital precession and the cosmological constant
(American Institute of Physics, 2003)
We discuss the influence of the cosmological constant on the gravitomagnetic clock effect and the gravitational time delay of electromagnetic rays. Moreover, we consider the relative motion of a binary system to linear ...
The Multitude of Molecular Hydrogen Knots in the Helix Nebula
(Institute of Physics, 2005)
. The brightest H2 emission (~3 × 10-4 ergs s-1 cm-2 sr-1) may be enhanced by a larger than unity area filling factor of H2 knots or may be an individual H2 knot exposed to direct starlight, causing rapid photoevaporation compared with the more embedded knots...
Jainism and Jaina Bronzes
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Museum of Art and Archaeology, 1973)
The role of the digital economy, business synergy, and trade policies on global economic prosperity in India and China
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, 2023)
The necessity of addressing global economic prosperity has garnered significant attention from recent studies and policymakers. This article analyses the effects of the digital economy, business synergies, and trade policies ...
A catalog of Nearby Poor Clusters of Galaxies
(American Astronomical Society, 1999)
A catalog of 732 optically selected, nearby poor clusters of galaxies covering the entire sky north of [3¡ declination is presented. The poor clusters, called WBL clusters, were identified as concentrations of
three or ...
Measurement Theory and General Relativity
(arXiv, 2000)
The theory of measurement is employed to elucidate the physical basis of general relativity. For measurements involving phenomena with intrinsic length or time scales, such scales must in general be negligible compared to ...
Nonlocal Special Relativity
(arXiv, 2008)
In the special theory of relativity, Lorentz invariance is extended in Minkowski spacetime from ideal inertial observers to actual observers by means of the hypothesis of locality, which postulates that accelerated observers ...
Optical properties of dust
(arXiv, 2008)
Except in a few cases cosmic dust can be studied in situ or in terrestrial laboratories, essentially all of our information concerning the nature of cosmic dust depends upon its interaction with electromagnetic radiation. ...
Nonlocal Electrodynamics of Accelerated Systems
(arXiv, 2007)
Acceleration-induced nonlocality is discussed and a simple field theory of nonlocal electrodynamics is developed. The theory involves a pair of real parameters that are to be determined from observation. The implications ...
The SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program: The life-cycle of dust and gas in the Large Magellanic Cloud: Point source classification I.
(arXiv, 2010)
We present the classification of 197 point sources observed with the Infrared Spectrograph in the SAGE-Spec Legacy program on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We introduce a decision-tree method of object classification based ...
GIMI 2 : A Tool for Fast Estimation and Prediction of GMO Maize Contents in Real Coexistence Situations
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, 2014)
Coexistence of GM and conventional maize in locations where the two types of varieties are commercially grown would benefit from a tool to estimate and predict the GMO contents of conventional fields that are surrounded ...
Post-Newtonian Reference Frames for Advanced Theory of the Lunar Motion and a New Generation of Lunar Laser Ranging
(arXiv, 2009)
We construct a set of post-Newtonian reference frames for a comprehensive study of the orbital dynamics and rotational motion of Moon and Earth by means of lunar laser ranging (LLR) with the precision of one millimeter. ...
Horseman in Bronze : A Belt from Urartu
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Museum of Art and Archaeology, 2005)
A General Overview of Supervision
(1963)
The purpose of this paper is to define supervision in schools, its functions, and its role in the organizational structure.
Gamma oscillations in the basolateral amygdala : biophysical mechanisms and computational consequences
(Society for Neuroscience, 2019)
The basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BL) is thought to support numerous emotional behaviors through specific microcircuits. These are often thought to be comprised of feedforward networks of principal cells (PNs) and ...
The baths of Trajan Decius, or of Philip the Arab?
(2002)
In a recent publication Laetitia La Follette collected the evidence for the Baths of Trajan Decius, an important but little-known imperial monument of the mid-3rd c. in Rome. Bringing together the ancient literary and ...
Epic Splitting: An Arab Folk Gloss on the Meaning of the Hero Pattern
(1989-01)
"Epic narrative typically spells out departures and arrivals very clearly (see Bowra 1952:179 ff). The Arabic migration epic Sīrat Banī Hilāl, in its many different cultural transformations and retellings, has a structure based on geographic...
