On February 8, 2022, approximately 40 of the 49 Starlink satellites were reported to have lost altitude, leading to atmospheric re-entry. SpaceX reported that the orbital decay on Starlink satellites was considered to be linked to a geomagnetic storm tha
As long as you know your velocity—and your bullet’s ballistic coefficient—you can know your trajectory. Longer barrels are not more accurate. If anything, it’s quite the opposite. Shorter, stiffer barrels tend to vibrate more consistently and are probably more accurate on average. However,...
Figure 2 depicts the general hierarchical DDM. The Supplemental Material provides the JAGS code and the specifications of the priors used to estimate the model. The hierarchical structure means that each process parameter of the DDM had a higher order group-level prior. For example, the model ...
For much of the history of ecology, elemental movement processes such as ballistic and Brownian motion have been used to understand the consequences of animal movement. Key reasons for the ubiquity of these models include their analytical tractability, and the long-standing dearth of empirical data ...
This form of abuse controls or restricts your financial resources so that you are dependent on them for everything. Whether the control is over needs like food or wants like special gifts, they can all be used to assert power and control over you. ...
Thus, the limitations we identify with SDT’s account of the decision to shoot also apply to the process dissociation model. The noise in each sample is determined by the parameter σ 2 called the drift coefficient. For our purposes it is set to 1.0. This is because the drift coefficient ...
