Cassini encounters with hot flow anomaly-like phenomena at Saturn's bow shock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The first observations of the kronian equivalent of hot flow anomalies (HFAs) are presented. Using magnetic field and plasma data we discuss two events that were observed upstream of Saturn's bow shock during the first two orbits of the Cassini ...

On Minimum Bow Force for Bowed Strings [PDF]

open access: yesActa Acustica united with Acustica, 2017
A famous theoretical prediction of the minimum bow force to maintain Helmholtz motion of a bowed string is re-examined to take account of effects associated with resonances of the instrument body. Starting from a more robust assumption of an ideal stick-slip velocity waveform at the bowing point rather than a perfect sawtoothshaped excitation force at ...

Singularities in mass-loaded MHD flow: The cometary bow shock [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We present a one-dimensional model of the mass-loading of the solar wind by cometary ions which predicts a singularity in the mass-loaded flow at M = 2. Further, a subshock occurs when the flow speed reaches M almost-equal-to 1.15.

Effect of Bow Camber and Mass Distribution on Violinists' Preferences and Performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Little is known about how bow mechanical characteristics objectively and quantitatively influence violinists' preferences and performance. Hypothesizing that the bow shape (i.e., camber) and mass distribution modifications would alter both violinists ...

The “Dew-bow.” [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1903
ON Wednesday and Thursday, November 4 and 5, fogs prevailed in this district and brought by mild winds great quantities of carbonaceous dust from over the town, which covered the surface of the top pond in Vernon Park with a dry film.
