Could the GRB-Supernovae GRB 031203 and XRF 060218 be Cosmic Twins? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The gamma-ray burst (GRB) / X-ray flash (XRF) events GRB 031203, discovered by INTEGRAL, and XRF 060218, discovered by Swift, represent two of only five GRB-SNe with optical spectroscopic confirmation of their SN components.

A comparative assessment of different deviation strategies for dangerous NEO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper a number of deviation strategies for dangerous Near Earth Objects (NEO) have been compared. For each strategy (i.e. Solar Collector, Nuclear Blast, Kinetic Impactor, Low-thrust Propulsion, Mass Driver) a multi criteria optimisation method ...

Measuring star formation in high-z massive galaxies: A mid-infrared to submillimeter study of the GOODS NICMOS Survey sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present measurements of the mean mid-infrared-to-submillimeter flux densities of massive (M\ast \approx 2 \times 10^11 Msun) galaxies at redshifts 1.7 < z < 2.9, obtained by stacking positions of known objects taken from the GOODS NICMOS Survey (GNS ...

Experimental and numerical investigations of glass curtain walls subjected to low- level blast loads [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements, 2015
A series of three full-scale, nearly-conventional, curtain wall specimens were blast tested in the open arena of the Infrastructure Security and Emergency Responder Research and Training (ISERRT) Facility in Gastonia, NC. The specimens were subjected to low-level blast loads produced from the detonation of high explosives.

DNA Methylation Patterns of Chronic Explosive Breaching in U.S. Military Warfighters

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Background: Injuries from exposure to explosions rose dramatically during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, which motivated investigation of blast-related neurotrauma.

Effects of repetitive low-level blast exposure on visual system and ocular structures

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Research and Development, 2015
The purpose of this study was to determine whether repetitive exposure to low-level blasts during military breacher training produces acute and cumulative damage to the ocular tissues or visual system. The effects of low-level blast exposure on high-contrast visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, oculomotor function, color vision, visual field (VF ...

Lensing Magnification: Implications for Counts of Submillimeter Galaxies and SZ Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study lensing magnification of source galaxies by intervening galaxy groups and clusters using a halo model. Halos are modeled with truncated NFW profiles with ellipticity added to their lensing potential and propagated to observable lensing ...

Mechanisms and pathophysiology of the low-level blast brain injury in animal models

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2011
The symptoms of primary blast-induced mTBI, posttraumatic stress disorder and depression overlap. Evidence of an organic basis for these entities has been scarce and controversial. We present a review of animal studies demonstrating that low-level blast causes pathophysiological and functional changes in the brain. We monitor a time period from minutes
