Impulsively generated wave trains in coronal structures: II. Effects of transverse structuring on sausage waves in pressureless slabs [PDF]

, 2018
Impulsively generated sausage wave trains in coronal structures are important for interpreting a substantial number of observations of quasi-periodic signals with quasi-periods of order seconds. We have previously shown that the Morlet spectra of these wave trains in coronal tubes depend crucially on the dispersive properties of trapped sausage waves ...

Coronal lines and the warm X-ray absorber in Seyfert 1 Galaxies [PDF]

New Astron.Rev. 44 (2000) 547-549, 2000
The connection between the coronal lines and the warm absorber is examined systematically. In an earlier work it was found that the coronal line emitting plasma and the warm absorber gas share the same density and temperature. If there is a connection between the warm absorber gas and the forbidden high-ionization line (FHIL) plasma, one can use the ...

Trends in novel opioid use and detections in exposures and police drug seizures in New South Wales

Drug and Alcohol Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Novel opioids, including non‐medical and non‐opium‐based opioids such as fentanyl analogues and nitazenes, pose a significant risk of harm due to their high potency. There is little published data on novel opioid detections and harms in Australia, yet they are implicated in multiple deaths.
