The first spectropolarimetric monitoring of the peculiar O4Ief supergiant zeta Puppis

open access: yes, 2016
The origin of the magnetic field in massive O-type stars is still under debate. To model the physical processes responsible for the generation of O star magnetic fields, it is important to understand whether correlations between the presence of a ...

Partners Mirror Each Other's Informal Helping Behavior: Evidence From a Longitudinal Study

open access: yesJournal of Marriage and Family, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This paper examines to what extent partners' informal helping behaviors are related and to what extent this partner effect differs by gender. Differences in informal help given to kin and non‐kin are explored. Background Although prior research has suggested that partners influence each other's helping behavior, these mostly cross ...

Undercoverage and Nonresponse in a List-sampled Telephone Election Survey

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2015
For landline telephone surveys in particular, undercoverage has been a growing problem. However, research regarding the relative contributions of socio-demographic bias and other composition effects is scarce.

Spectroscopic follow up of arclets in AC114 with the VLT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present the first results on the VLT/FORS-1 spectroscopic survey of amplified sources and multiple images in the lensing cluster AC114. Background sources were selected in the cluster core, close to the critical lines, using photometric redshifts ...

The Relationship Between Global and Domain‐Specific Evaluations of Life Satisfaction: A Feedback Loop Theory

open access: yesJournal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Previous studies on the relationship between global (top‐down) and domain‐specific (bottom‐up) evaluations of life satisfaction have revealed mixed findings. The current study investigated the reciprocal relationship between top‐down and bottom‐up processes using two analytic methods to properly account for time‐varying predictors ...

TFAW: wavelet-based signal reconstruction to reduce photometric noise in time-domain surveys

open access: yes, 2018
There have been many efforts to correct systematic effects in astronomical light curves to improve the detection and characterization of planetary transits and astrophysical variability.

B fields in OB stars (BOB): The discovery of a magnetic field in a multiple system in the Trifid Nebula, one of the youngest star forming regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent magnetic field surveys in O- and B-type stars revealed that about 10% of the core-hydrogen-burning massive stars host large-scale magnetic fields. The physical origin of these fields is highly debated.

Old but Sold? Innovation Through Tradition Strategy for Export and the Role of Family Involvement

open access: yesJournal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the notable body of research, the family firm (FF) internationalization literature has overlooked the role of innovation strategies in explaining FFs' export performance. We focus on the innovation through tradition (ITT) strategy—specifically, the degree to which a firm leverages its firm‐specific, mature (i.e., past) knowledge in the

Sensor technology for advanced space missions [PDF]

open access: yes
The capability and applications of two sensors, Spatial, High-Accuracy, Position-Encoding Sensor (SHAPES) and Fiber Optics Rotation Sensor (FORS), for advanced missions are discussed. The multiple target, 3-D position sensing capability of SHAPES meets a
