Leadership preferences of mentally tough athletes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This study examined the leadership preferences of mentally tough athletes. A sample of 103 athletes (M age = 22.06 years, SD = 4.37) participated and ranged from club / university level to county standard in a variety of team sports.

A High-Resolution Global Moho Model from Combining Gravimetric and Seismic Data by Using Spectral Combination Methods

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The high-resolution Moho depth model is required in various geophysical studies. However, the available models’ resolutions could be improved for this purpose.

Crust-core coupling and r-mode damping in neutron stars: a toy model [PDF]

open access: yesMon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 324 (2001) 917, 2000
R-modes in neutron stars with crusts are damped by viscous friction at the crust-core boundary. The magnitude of this damping, evaluated by Bildsten and Ushomirsky (BU) under the assumption of a perfectly rigid crust, sets the maximum spin frequency for a neutron star spun up by accretion in a Low-Mass X-ray binary (LMXB).

Crust structure and thermal evolution of neutron stars in soft X-ray transients [PDF]

open access: yesA&A 645, A102 (2021), 2020
We study the effect of physics input on thermal evolution of neutron stars in soft X-ray transients (SXTs). In particular, we consider different modern models of the sources of deep crustal heating during accretion episodes and the effects brought about by impurities embedded in the crust during its formation.

Seismic anisotropy: an original tool to understand the geodynamic evolution of the Italian peninsula

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1997
Anisotropy is a common property of the Earth's crust and the upper mantle; it is related to the strain field of the medium and therefore to geodynamics. In this paper we describe the different possible origins of anisotropic behavior of the seismic waves

Timing of Svecofennian crustal growth and collisional tectonics in Åland, SW Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2004
In an effort to quantify the time parameter in the tectonomagmatic evolution of what has been called the Southern Svecofennian Arc Complex (SSAC) of SW Finland, advanced radiometric dating techniques have here been applied to rock groups of key ...

Thermodynamically consistent equation of state for an accreted neutron star crust [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 124, 191101 (2020), 2020
We study equation of state (EOS) of an accreting neutron star crust. Usually, such EOS is obtained assuming (implicitly) that the free (unbound) neutrons and nuclei in the inner crust move together. We argue, that this assumption violates the condition $\mu_n^\infty={\rm const}$, required for hydrostatic (and diffusion) equilibrium of unbound neutrons (

THE NITRIDING OF HIGH SPEED STEEL CUTTING TOOLS [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
There is an interest in industry in cost reduction. Tool wear constitutes an important element in the cost of many metal working processes, not only because of the cost of the tool, but also because of the cost of machine downtime. Saltbath nitriding

Distribution of the Elements in Some Major Units of the Earth's Crust

open access: yes, 1961
This paper presents a table of abundances of the elements in the various major units of the Earth's lithic crust with a documentation of the sources and a discussion of the choice of units and data.
