Airplane radiation dose decrease during a strong Forbush decrease [PDF]

Space Weather, 2004
An important decrease of onboard air crew exposure level was registered at the Forbush decrease observed during the period of disturbed solar conditions at the end of October 2003. The onboard dosimetry and geophysical data are presented and compared. Comparable decrease is observed for onboard measurements and geographically nearby cosmic ray neutron ...

Starving for Data: Eating Disorders Prevalence and Research Gaps in Southern Africa

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Studies reporting prevalence estimates of eating disorders in Southern Africa are scarce. To fill this gap, the present Research Forum reviews existing literature on the prevalence of eating disorders, including as assessed by clinical interviews, screeners, and self‐reported behaviors, among individuals in Southern Africa.

Precursory Signs of Large Forbush Decreases in Relation to Cosmic Rays Equatorial Anisotropy Variation

Atmosphere
Forbush decreases are usually characterized by increased values of cosmic ray anisotropy. The precursory signs, i.e., pre-increases and especially pre-decreases of the cosmic ray intensity, are highly anisotropic phenomena that ordinarily forewarn of ...

Recurrent and sporadic Forbush decreases during solar cycles 23–24

Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2019
A comparison has been made between recurrent (associated with high-speed streams from coronal holes) and sporadic (caused by interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs)) Forbush decreases (FDs) in solar cycles 23 and 24 (as well as in the maxima of ...

Age‐Related Trends in Eating‐Pathology Symptoms Among Sexual Minority Adults

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine how eating‐disorder symptoms vary by chronological age and sexual orientation in sexual minority adults. Method Cross‐sectional data came from 2062 cisgender sexual minority participants (925 gay men, 573 lesbian women, 116 bi+ men, 448 bi+ women; age = 47.8 years, range = 18–96).

Magnetic Cloud and Its Interplanetary Shock Sheath as a Modulator of the Cosmic Ray Intensity [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008
Forbush Decreases (FDs) are representative events of abrupt decrease in galactic cosmic ray intensity. They are known to be strongly associated with solar wind events such as interplanetary shock (IP shock) and magnetic cloud (MC).

Forbush Decrease Prediction Based on Remote Solar Observations [PDF]

Solar Physics, 2015
We employ remote observations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and the associated solar flares to forecast the CME-related Forbush decreases, i.e., short-term depressions in the galactic cosmic-ray flux. The relationship between the Forbush effect at the Earth and remote observations of CMEs and associated solar flares is studied via a statistical ...

Establishing General and Context‐Specific Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE‐Q) Cut‐Off Scores for Anorexia Nervosa

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Our aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE‐Q) scores and establish general and context‐specific cut‐off points for anorexia nervosa (AN) in Australian women. Methods The sample included 67 women with AN, 41 women with a history of AN and restored weight, 100 women with self ...

Ionization effect of solar particle GLE events in low and\ middle atmosphere [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011
Using a new reconstruction of the solar proton energy spectra for Ground Level Enhancement (GLE) events, based on fits to measurements from ground-based and satellite-borne instruments covering a wide energy range, we quantitatively evaluate the possible

Shock drift mechanism for Forbush decreases

The Astrophysical Journal, 1990
Consideration is given to the way in which Forbush decreases can arise from variable drifts in nonuniform shocks, where the variation in shock strength along the shock front causes both the shock drift distance and the energy gain to become variable.
