The advent of jets — particularly the 747 later on — would make long-haul flying affordable to millions of people, but cheap mass travel as we know it today was still decades away. The Boeing 737 still uses the same nose-section architecture of the 707. Those old-fashioned looking cock...
The prompt emission of most gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) typically exhibits a non-thermal Band component. The synchrotron radiation in the popular internal shock model is generally put forward to explain such a non-thermal component. However, the low-energy photon index 𝛼∼−1.5α∼−1.5 ...
(which became a hit in West Germany) and “Angkok-Angkok Bilis”. It is notable that The Swallows were always only a part-time band with its members holding fulltime day jobs while moonlighting as passionate musicians. They were the first and most successful Kugiran Melayu Pop Yeh Yeh in...
Physics objects (for example, electrons, photons, muons, quark or gluon jets, and so on) are identified by different combinations of the patterns of energy deposits and/or traces in these four layers. The defining choice and the central element of the CMS detector is the long (13 m), ...
For better or for worse, he will never come out from under the shadow of Zeppelin but surviving band members Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones carry the same burden too. Have a quick listen to Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” and you’ll see what all the fuss is about. ...
Follow NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers' comeback with the New York Jets and also his life off the field, including his advocacy for ayahuasca, a psychedelic brew. The series is co-directed by acclaimed sports filmmakers Gotham Chopra & Liam Hughes (of Destination NBA: A G League Odyssey). The...
By the mid-1970s, The Monkees' popularity had waned from the band's successful run during the 1960s. However, thanks to the group's campy television series now in syndication, a new generation of fans got to experience this underrated musical act that was essentially responsible for...
2 December 1955: The prototype de Havilland DH-106 Comet 3, G-ANLO, departed Hatfield Aerodrome, Hertfordshire, England, with Chief Test Pilot John Cunningham and Per Buggé in the cockpit. R.W. Chandler was the navigator/radio operator. Other crew members included Chief Flight Engineer E. ...
Today, The Waterboys’ eighth and ninth studio albums are released on vinyl for the first time. Universal Hall (2003), recorded in the basement studio of the hall of the same name, a theatre in Findhorn, Scotland, and containing the band's most spiritual and minimalistic music, is availabl...
Testing the distribution of these properties among long and short GRBs will reduce the ambiguity implied by the partial overlap of these classes and further characterize the jets produced in the two cases. In addition, the possibility to verify whether the early VHE emission is dominated by ...
