The spherical segmented Langmuir probe in a flowing thermal plasma: numerical model of the current collection [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2005
The segmented Langmuir probe (SLP) has been recently proposed by one of the authors (Lebreton, 2002) as an instrument to derive the bulk velocity of terrestrial or planetary plasmas, in addition to the electron density and temperature that are ...

City of God and the Duty of Just Memory

Modern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract In a recent essay, Richard Miller claims that Augustine presumes a duty to remember justly in his City of God. However, Miller's brief reference to a presumed duty of “just memory” does not fully explain how Augustine conceptualizes this duty or how it relates to his theological concerns.

Numerical simulation of a 3D unsteady two-phase flow in the filling cavity in oxygen of a cryogenic rocket-engine [PDF]

, 2012
The feeding of the LOX dome of a cryogenic rocket-engine is a decisive stage of the transient engine ignition. However flight conditions are difficult to reproduce by experimental ground tests. The work reported here is part of an ongoing research effort

Intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus and normal/equivocal preoperative upper gastrointestinal series in newborns: a case series

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports
Introduction: The upper gastrointestinal (UGI) series is the reference-standard imaging study for suspected malrotation in neonates, yet a falsely reassuring study is a recognized pitfall that can delay life-saving surgery.

The Pictures and the Frame: Banknote Iconography and Bottom‐Up Nationalism in Pre‐ and Post‐Revolutionary Tunisia

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘Bottom‐up nationalism’—the belief that the nation is of the people, by the people and for the people—can serve as a powerful collective action frame for mass mobilization. We study the evolution of Tunisian dinar banknote iconography as an indicator of the institutionalization of bottom‐up nationalism before and after the Jasmine Revolution ...

Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

Using Local Expert Knowledge to Measure Prices: Evidence From a Survey Experiment in Vietnam

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many countries lack spatially disaggregated consumer price data needed to estimate real inequality and spatial patterns of poverty. Such data are especially absent in poor countries where weak infrastructure and high transport costs create large price variation over space.
