Microlensing optical depth as a function of source apparent magnitude

, 2007
Measurements of the microlensing optical depth, tau, towards the Galactic bulge appear to depend on the method used to obtain them. Those values based on the lensing of red clump giants (RCGs) appear to be significantly lower than those based on the ...

The EROS2 search for microlensing events towards the spiral arms: the complete seven season results [PDF]

, 2009
The EROS-2 project has been designed to search for microlensing events towards any dense stellar field. The densest parts of the Galactic spiral arms have been monitored to maximize the microlensing signal expected from the stars of the Galactic disk and

Emission Reduction Targets Between Strategy and Executive Compensation: Evidence on Symbolic and Substantive Adoption From German Listed Firms

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms increasingly commit to climate targets yet doubts remain about whether such pledges translate into substantive corporate governance or remain symbolic. The study examines how emission reduction targets (ERTs) in sustainability strategies are reflected in compensation among German listed firms.

Dusty ERO Search behind Two Massive Clusters

, 2002
We performed deep K'-band imaging observations of 2 massive clusters, MS 0451.6-0305 at z = 0.55 and MS 0440.5+0204 at z = 0.19, for searching counterparts of the faint sub-mm sources behind these clusters, which would provide one of the deepest ...

All the bedrooms a stage: Reconceptualizing sex as “performance” to sex as “rehearsal”

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the United States, sex is often spoken about in terms of performance, and naturally invokes language of theatricality. Sexual performance has been used as an umbrella term to refer to sexual satisfaction, behavior, embodiment, and also pathology in terms of conditions such as erectile dysfunction.
