Coronal Dynamic Activities in the Declining Phase of a Solar Cycle [PDF]
It has been known that some solar activity indicators show a double-peak feature in their evolution through a solar cycle, which is not conspicuous in sunspot number. In this letter, we investigate the high solar dynamic activity in the declining phase of the sunspot cycle by examining the evolution of polar and low latitude coronal hole areas and the ...

Nebraska’s Medico-Legal System: A Death Investigation Analysis [PDF]
A large part of the founding of the United States of America focused on the idea of state control over their internal affairs. For this reason, the United States is home to a largely decentralized medico-legal system.

The Cooling of Coronal Plasmas. iv: Catastrophic Cooling of Loops [PDF]
We examine the radiative cooling of coronal loops and demonstrate that the recently identified catastrophic cooling (Reale and Landi, 2012) is due to the inability of a loop to sustain radiative / enthalpy cooling below a critical temperature, which can be > 1 MK in flares, 0.5 - 1 MK in active regions and 0.1 MK in long tenuous loops.

Slice Imputation: Intermediate Slice Interpolation for Anisotropic 3D Medical Image Segmentation [PDF]
We introduce a novel frame-interpolation-based method for slice imputation to improve segmentation accuracy for anisotropic 3D medical images, in which the number of slices and their corresponding segmentation labels can be increased between two consecutive slices in anisotropic 3D medical volumes.
