W96-1215. Staal, Harvey (1922-1999). Papers, 1938-1998. 12.00 linear ft.
Harvey Staal, RCA minister and missionary, graduated from Hope College (1943) and the Western Theological Seminary. Staal and his wife served in Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman and Lebanon. In 1966, they returned to the U. S.for two years while Staal worked toward his doctorate in Arabic at the University of Utah. In 1972, Staal became the first pastor of the Protestant Church in Muscat, Oman. Staal later became pastor to the English-speaking congregation of the Community Church of Beirut. His Utah doctoral theses, a modern Arabic translation of the Syriac text of Epistles and Acts, known as Mt. Sinai Arabia Codex 151, were later published as a scholarly book. The Staal collection is ripe with materials describing missionary efforts in the strife-torn Middle East, as well as four decades of photographic slides
Notas estadísticas relativas a las series históricas de los tipos de interés del Banco de España 1938-1998
Este documento es una recopilación de las notas estadísticas relativas a los tipos de interés del Banco de España, publicadas en el Boletín Estadístico del Banco de España y en sus suplementos de notas hasta 1998. Los datos publicados en las ediciones del Boletín Estadístico abarcan el período 1938-1998. En 1999, estos tipos de interés dejaron de difundirse, tras la cesión, el 1 de enero, de la política monetaria del Banco de España al Consejo de Gobierno del Banco Central Europeo

Time resolved fission in metal clusters
We explore from a theoretical point of view pump and probe (P&P) analysis for
fission of metal clusters where probe pulses are generalized to allow for
scanning various frequencies. We show that it is possible to measure the time
the system needs to develop to scission. This is achieved by a proper choice of
both delay and frequency of the probe pulse. A more detailed analysis even
allows to access the various intermediate stages of the fission process.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
W pierwszą rocznicę śmierci prof. dr hab. Jadwigi Włodek- Chronowskiej (1938-1998)
Prof. dr hab. Jadwiga Romualda Włodek-Chronowska urodziła się 25 września 1938 roku w Krakowie w rodzinie
inteligencji pracującej. Studia wyższe odbyła w latach 1960-1965, studiując psychologię rozwojowo-wychowawrczą oraz psychologię kliniczną na Wydziale Filozoficzno-Historycznym Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego i uzyskując stopień magistra psychologii po obronie pracy „Pozawerbalne formy kontaktów społecznych dziecka” napisanej pod kierunkiem prof. dr hab. Marii Przełącznikowej. Następnie w latach 1967-1969 studiowala pedagogikę eksperymentalną w Wyższej Szkole Pedagogicznej w Krakowie, uzyskując stopień magistra pedagogiki po przedłożeniu i obronie pracy napisanej pod kierunkiem prof. dr hab. Jana Konopnickiego pt. „Trafność oceny poziomu umysłowego uczniów przez nauczycieli”. Stopień naukowy doktora nauk humanistycznych nadała jej w 1977 roku Rada Wydziału Filozoflczno-Historycznego Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego na podstawie rozprawy doktorskiej pt. „Działalność poradni wychowawczo-zawodowej jako
instytucjonalnej determinanty orientacji zawodowej” (...)
Probing the momentum dependence of medium modifications of the nucleon-nucleon elastic cross sections
The momentum dependence of the medium modifications on nucleon-nucleon
elastic cross sections is discussed with microscopic transport theories and
numerically investigated with an updated UrQMD microscopic transport model. The
semi-peripheral Au+Au reaction at beam energy MeV is adopted as an
example. It is found that the uncertainties of the momentum dependence on
medium modifications of cross sections influence the yields of free nucleons
and their collective flows as functions of their transverse momentum and
rapidity. Among these observables, the elliptic flow is sensitively dependent
on detailed forms of the momentum dependence and more attention should be paid.
The elliptic flow is hardly influenced by the probable splitting effect of the
neutron-neutron and proton-proton cross sections so that one might pin down the
mass splitting effect of the mean-field level at high beam energies and high
nuclear densities by exploring the elliptic flow of nucleons or light clusters.Comment: 13 pages, 6 figures, 1 tabl
An oxygen isotope record of lacustrine opal from a European Maar indicates climatic stability during the Last Interglacial
The penultimate temperate period, 127–110 ka before present (BP), bracketed by abrupt shifts of the global climate system initiating and terminating it, is considered as an analogue of the Holocene because of a similar low global ice‐volume. Ice core records as well as continental and marine records exhibit conflicting evidence concerning the climate variability within this period, the Last Interglacial. We present, for the first time, a high‐resolution record of oxygen isotopes in diatom opal of the Last Interglacial obtained from the Ribains Maar in France (44°50′09″N 3°49′16″E). Our results indicate that the Last Interglacial in southwestern Europe was generally a period of climatic stability. The record shows that the temperate period was initiated by an abrupt warm event followed midway by a minor climatic transition to a colder climate. An abrupt isotopic depletion that occurs simultaneously with abrupt changes in pollen and diatom assemblages marks the end of the temperate period, and is correlative with the Melisey I stadial. Variations in the isotopic composition of lake‐water related to the isotopic composition of precipitation and evaporation dominate the biogenic opal oxygen isotope record
