Temperature and Transverse Expansion of Fireballs in Pb+Pb Collisions at the LHC

open access: yesCommunications, 2014
We analyze hadron transverse momentum spectra from Pb+Pb Collisions recorded by the LHC detector ALICE. As the theoretical model we use a Monte Carlo model which includes production and decays of resonances.

Captivated by Kinesin

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few proteins have inspired as much curiosity as kinesin. Since its discovery 40 years ago, kinesin has become one of the best understood molecular machines in biology, yet it continues to reveal new questions about how cells organize and move their contents.

Why a Hydrogen fireball should not be modelled as a BLEVE event

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
The rapid increasing interest in the usage of Hydrogen has obviously triggered a lot of safety related questions. Apart from non-trivial questions about failure frequencies and ignition probabilities, the consequence modelling of potential events also ...

Measurements of fireball onset

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2018
Laser-based measurements of the characteristic features of fireball onset and stabilization in response to a stepped voltage applied to an anode immersed in a low pressure (100 mTorr) helium afterglow are reported. These include spatial and temporal evolution of metastable species, electron density, and electric field magnitude as measured by planar ...

A Near-Earth Object Model Calibrated to Earth Impactors

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The population of Earth-impacting meteoroids and their size-dependent orbital elements are key to understanding the origin of meteorites and informing planetary defense efforts. Outstanding questions include the role of collisions in depleting meteoroids

Regulatory Convergence and Divergence in ESG Reporting in the Indo‐Pacific Region

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting has evolved significantly globally over the past few decades. Many countries are now signatories to international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, with increasing commitments to emissions reduction targets and the

Particular aspects of calculating affecting factors of fireballs emerging from aircraft crash

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The article reveals an algorithm of calculating the heat loads which emerge during fireball-involving accidents. By way of illustration it considers a situation when a heavy aircraft crashes in the vicinity of a typical reactor building of a nuclear ...

Evidence from spectra of bright fireballs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Spectral data with dispersions from 11 to 94 A/mm on 4 fireballs of actual brightness of -4 to -12 magnitude and with velocities of about 30 km/s at 70 to 80 km heights are used for studies of meteor radiation problems.
