4:44 Last Day on Earth: Directed by Abel Ferrara. With Shanyn Leigh, Willem Dafoe, Tony Redman, Pat Kiernan. A look at how a painter and a successful actor spend their last day together before the world comes to an end.
A third scenario consists of oligometastatic spread, where ablative doses of radiation may lead to durable local control and often long survival [1, 10]. Typically, hypofractionation or single doses are also administered to these patients. As a result of widespread availability of equipment and ...
Critics say potential shaking from nearby earthquake faults not recognized when the design was approved could damage equipment and release radiation. One fault was not discovered until 2008. PG&E has long said the plant is safe, an assessment the NRC has supported. The U.S. nuclear ...
Helga Tawil-Souri, for instance, has recently described how the creation of “smart borders” administered by “unmanned aerial reconnaissance and attack drones, remote-controlled machine guns, closed-circuit television, sonic imagery, gamma-radiation detectors, remote-controlled bulldozers and boats, ...
Intense debate persists about the timing and magnitude of the wet phases in the East Asia deserts since the late Pleistocene. Here we show reconstructions of the paleohydrology of the East Gobi Desert since the last interglacial using satellite images an
This enclosure allows for the simulation of dangerous or undesirable external factors, such as high pressures, extreme temperatures, radiation, vibration or shock, and more. Materials or components of a part are exposed to all these in order to test the material’s resistance to these conditions....
Snowpack duration is a matter of a complex combination of abiotic and biotic factors where the timing, magnitude and distribution of precipitation, local terrain, solar, thermal radiation and overwinter ablation, wind relocation and loading, snow features, interception of vegetation, timing and magnitude...
20. A Nuclear Reactor That’s Over-reacting! The threat of radiation poisoning in America. Headlines Received October, 2012 1. A Band of Brothers –“Rule 101″ = State’s Rights Governors United to Take a Stand. 2. The Mission Impossible Mission: Helping the Woes of the Euro. ...
a coherent radar signal to the surface and measures the backscattered radiation. The phase difference (position in the wave cycle) between the signals returning at two different times (time 1 in black and time 2 in red) can be used to estimate ground movement caused by a range of mechanisms...
XRD analyses were conducted on air-dried (<2 µm fraction) and ethylene-glycolated samples utilizing a Rigaku MiniFlex 600 with Cu-Kα radiation at 40 kV, 15 mA at the Pusan National University. The XRD profiles of the air-dried and glycolated clay samples were measured in the range ...
