Use of Landsat 5 for Change Detection at 1998 Indian and Pakistani Nuclear Test Sites
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2014 An underground nuclear explosion (UNE) can generate a shock wave that lofts surface material, resulting in surface changes that might be detectable. The Comprehensive Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) allows ground and airborne spectral and thermal imaging ...

Journal of Medical Ethics, 2005 The idea of passive euthanasia has recently been attacked in a particularly clear and explicit way by an “Ethics Task Force” established by the European Association of Palliative Care (EAPC) in February 2001. It claims that the expression “passive euthanasia” is a contradiction in terms and hence that there can be no such thing.

Study on Performance of Mesoscopic Impactor Filters for Aerosol Removal
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2019 The mesoscopic impactor filter is designed to filtrate aerosols in the containment, which has not only high collection efficiency but also small flow resistance. In this paper, the influence of structural parameters and working parameters of the inertial
