Associations between domains of physical literacy by weight status in 8- to 12-year-old Canadian children

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2018
Background The Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy (CAPL) is divided into four domains (Physical Competence, Daily Behaviour, Motivation and Confidence, and Knowledge and Understanding) and provides a robust and comprehensive assessment of physical ...

The floral smell of sanctity and the semiotics of the halo

open access: yesOcula, 2020
The hagiographic discourse often uses floral metaphors to describe spiritual qualities. This is the case for instance with Thérèse of Lisieux's autobiography, in which the saint compares herself to humble flowers, and in particular to the violet, which ...

A Halo Model with Environment Dependence: Theoretical Considerations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present a modification of the standard halo model with the goal of providing an improved description of galaxy clustering. Recent surveys, like the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Anglo-Australian Two-degree survey (2dF), have shown that there

Cosmological Simulation for Fuzzy Dark Matter Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM), motivated by string theory, has recently become a hot candidate for dark matter. The rest mass of FDM is believed to be ~10−22eV and the corresponding de-Broglie wave length is ~1kpc. Therefore, the quantum effect of FDM plays an

Core Deformation in the Two-Neutron Halo Nucleus, 11Li by Using Faddeev Equation [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة جامعة الانبار للعلوم الصرفة, 2017
The properties of the two-neutron halo nucleus 11Li are investigated. The calculations are performed using the Faddeev equation with core excitation and Woods-Saxon potential. The core has been deformed and allowed to be excited to first 2+ state.
