The Kondo Effect in the Unitary Limit
We observe a strong Kondo effect in a semiconductor quantum dot when a small magnetic field is applied. The Coulomb blockade for electron tunneling is overcome completely by the Kondo effect and the conductance reaches the unitary-limit value. We compare

Small arms, small data : small arms shooting accuracy and the small data problem
This paper explores how small-arms aiming errors appear to vary with range. In particular it investigates the question of whether a “proximity effect” exists, reducing accuracy at close range. Data on small-arms hitting rates is sparse. The paper analyses nineteen sources of data, giving 83 data points; combat data is augmented with data from police ...
