Extraction management optimisation with TLS and 3D modelling
The application of structural 3D modelling using TLS datasets improves the extraction management and allows operating companies to differentiate distinct parts of a mineral deposit to be extracted with respect to different products
Simulating magnetic fields in the Antennae galaxies
We present self-consistent high-resolution simulations of NGC4038/4039 (the
"Antennae galaxies") including star formation, supernova feedback and magnetic
fields performed with the N-body/SPH code Gadget, in which magnetohydrodynamics
are followed with the SPH method. We vary the initial magnetic field in the
progenitor disks from 1 nG to 100 muG. At the time of the best match with the
central region of the Antennae system the magnetic field has been amplified by
compression and shear flows to an equilibrium field of approximately 10 muG,
independent of the initial seed field. These simulations are a proof of the
principle that galaxy mergers are efficient drivers for the cosmic evolution of
magnetic fields. We present a detailed analysis of the magnetic field structure
in the central overlap region. Simulated radio and polarization maps are in
good morphological and quantitative agreement with the observations. In
particular, the two cores with the highest synchrotron intensity and ridges of
regular magnetic fields between the cores and at the root of the southern tidal
arm develop naturally in our simulations. This indicates that the simulations
are capable of realistically following the evolution of the magnetic fields in
a highly non-linear environment. We also discuss the relevance of the
amplification effect for present day magnetic fields in the context of
hierarchical structure formation.Comment: 18 pages, 14 figures, accepte
A proprietary alpha-amylase inhibitor from white bean (Phaseolus vulgaris): A review of clinical studies on weight loss and glycemic control
Obesity, and resultant health hazards which include diabetes, cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome, are worldwide medical problems. Control of diet and exercise are cornerstones of the management of excess weight. Foods with a low glycemic index may reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease as well as their complications. As an alternative to a low glycemic index diet, there is a growing body of research into products that slow the absorption of carbohydrates through the inhibition of enzymes responsible for their digestion. These products include alpha-amylase and glucosidase inhibitors. The common white bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) produces an alpha-amylase inhibitor, which has been characterized and tested in numerous clinical studies. A specific and proprietary product named Phase 2® Carb Controller (Pharmachem Laboratories, Kearny, NJ) has demonstrated the ability to cause weight loss with doses of 500 to 3000 mg per day, in either a single dose or in divided doses. Clinical studies also show that Phase 2 has the ability to reduce the post-prandial spike in blood glucose levels. Experiments conducted incorporating Phase 2 into food and beverage products have found that it can be integrated into various products without losing activity or altering the appearance, texture or taste of the food. There have been no serious side effects reported following consumption of Phase 2. Gastro-intestinal side effects are rare and diminish upon extended use of the product. In summary, Phase 2 has the potential to induce weight loss and reduce spikes in blood sugar caused by carbohydrates through its alpha-amylase inhibiting activity
Citizenship Norms in Eastern Europe
Research on Eastern Europe stresses the weakness of its civil society and the lack of political and social involvement, neglecting the question: What do people themselves think it means to be a good citizen? This study looks at citizens’ definitions of good citizenship in Poland, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Hungary, using 2002 European Social Survey data. We investigate mean levels of civic mindedness in these countries and perform regression analyses to investigate whether factors traditionally associated with civic and political participation are also correlated with citizenship norms across Eastern Europe. We show that mean levels of civic mindedness differ significantly across the four Eastern European countries. We find some support for theories on civic and political participation when explaining norms of citizenship, but also demonstrate that individual-level characteristics are differently related to citizenship norms across the countries of our study. Hence, our findings show that Eastern Europe is not a monolithic and homogeneous bloc, underscoring the importance of taking the specificities of countries into account
