Rupture of the 1949 Khait Earthquake on a Cryptic Fault: Implications for Earthquake Hazard
Abstract The 1949 Mw 7.6 Khait earthquake, Tajikistan, was one of the most destructive of the Pamir—Tien Shan region, killing over 7,000 people by building collapse and landsliding. It occurred at the transition between the Pamir and Tien Shan mountain ranges, which converge along the narrow Vashkh river valley.

Three small systems showing probable room-temperature superconductivity
I shall discuss three small systems in which I think room-temperature superconductivity has been observed. These are: 1. Narrow channels through films of oxidised atactic polypropylene (OAPP) and other polymers. 2.

Integral measurement of the 12C(n, p)12B reaction up to 10 GeV [PDF]
The integral measurement of the 12C(n, p)12B reaction was performed at the neutron time-offlight facility n TOF at CERN. The total number of 12B nuclei produced per neutron pulse of the n TOF beam was determined using the activation technique in ...

ABSTRACT Science denialism is at the heart of many conspiracy theory beliefs. We propose that such beliefs are manifestations of a distal social process: spite. In three pre‐registered studies, we test the hypothesis that established predictors of these beliefs (epistemic, existential, and social motives) are specific cues of competitive disadvantage ...

Electron-spin-resonance in the doped spin-Peierls compound Cu(1-x)Ni(x)GeO3
ESR-study of the Ni-doped spin-Peierls compound CuGeO3 has been performed in the frequency range 9-75 GHz. At low temperatures the g-factor is smaller than the value expected for Cu- and Ni-ions.

Characterization of pinniped vibrissal type and number
Abstract Pinnipeds have vibrissae with which they can explore their environment. Two vibrissal parameters that differ in pinnipeds are shape and number. Regarding shape, most phocids have undulated vibrissae, whereas the vibrissae of a few phocids, all otariids and walruses are smooth.
