Measurement of the optical properties of lunar rocks in the transition zone, resulting from observations made by Lunokhod 2 [PDF]
Photometric measurements were carried out directly on the lunar surface with the aid of a calibration device, a plate with fields of different brightness, placed in the field of view of the panoramic telephotometers.

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

Cardiopulmonary function in special operations forces compared to conventional infantry soldiers
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Fitness is essential to military personnel in general, especially in the special operations forces (SOF), where the demanding tasks require a high level of physical fitness and mental robustness. However, little research has been done on SOF to characterise the putative underlying cardiopulmonary adaptations that distinguish them from ...

Multispectral mapping of the lunar surface using groundbased telescopes [PDF]
Images of the lunar surface were obtained at several wavelengths using a silicon vidicon imaging system and groundbased telescopes. These images were recorded and processed in digital form so that quantitative information is preserved.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Summary of the study design, metholodgy, results and conclusions. Abstract Due to a lack of technical capacity to directly visualise and quantify microvessels in the skin, little is known regarding regional and/or sex differences. We compared diameter, velocity, flow and density at four regional sites using a novel optical coherence tomography (OCT ...

The composition of lunar noble gases traped 2.5 AE and 3.5 AE ago [PDF]
The times when the soils 74001 and 73261 were exposed on the lunar surface were determined by the U-235 - Xe-136 dating method. The isotopic composition of the trapped noble gases in these two soils is compared with that of the surface correlated noble ...

Exercise during 14 days of head down tilt bedrest attenuates motor unit impairments in older humans
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Head‐down tilt bedrest (HDBR) models the effects of mechanical unloading on neuromuscular function. The efficacy of exercise in preserving motor unit (MU) function in older adults during HDBR remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of 14‐day HDBR on MU properties in older adults and the protective role of exercise.

Proceedings of a workshop on Lunar Volcanic Glasses: Scientific and Resource Potential [PDF]
This workshop on lunar mare volcanism was the first since 1975 to deal with the major scientific advances that have occurred in this general subject, and the first ever to deal specifically with volcanic glasses.
