Radio Spectrum and Distance of the SNR HB9 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
New images are presented of the supernova remnant (SNR) HB9 based on 408 MHz and 1420 MHz continuum emission and HI-line emission data of the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS) by the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO).

Magnifying absolute instruments for optically homogeneous regions

open access: yes, 2011
We propose a class of magnifying absolute optical instruments with a positive isotropic refractive index. They create magnified stigmatic images, either virtual or real, of optically homogeneous three-dimensional spatial regions within geometrical optics.

The Marine Spatial Planning Index: a tool to guide and assess marine spatial planning

open access: yesnpj Ocean Sustainability, 2023
Marine spatial planning (MSP) has the potential to balance demands for ocean space with environmental protection and is increasingly considered crucial for achieving global ocean goals. In theory, MSP should adhere to six principles, being: (1) ecosystem-

Spbsampling: An R Package for Spatially Balanced Sampling

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2022
The basic idea underpinning the theory of spatially balanced sampling is that units closer to each other provide less information about a target of inference than units farther apart.

Characteristics of the Termination Shock: Insights from Voyager [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We examine the energy spectra obtained from the cosmic ray instrument on the Voyager 1 spacecraft during 2002/215 through 2005/60. We find that the energy spectra of protons below ~20 MeV often resemble two power laws with a relatively hard index at low ...

Slot index spatial join [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, 2003
Efficient processing of spatial joins is very important due to their high cost and frequent application in spatial databases and other areas involving multidimensional data. This paper proposes slot index spatial join (SISJ), an algorithm that joins a nonindexed data set with one indexed by an R-tree.

Integrating NoSQL, Hilbert Curve, and R*-Tree to Efficiently Manage Mobile LiDAR Point Cloud Data

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
The widespread use of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology has led to a surge in three-dimensional point cloud data; although, it also poses challenges in terms of data storage and indexing.

Realization of an all-dielectric zero-index optical metamaterial

open access: yes, 2013
Metamaterials offer unprecedented flexibility for manipulating the optical properties of matter, including the ability to access negative index, ultra-high index and chiral optical properties.

Spatial Indexicals

open access: yesReview of Philosophy and Psychology
Abstract This paper offers a theory of spatial indexicals like here and there on which such expressions are variables associated with presuppositional constraints on their values. I show how this view handles both referential and bound uses of these indexicals, and I propose an account of what counts as the location of the context on a given ...

SPAG: Index of spatial agglomeration

open access: yesPapers in Regional Science, 2019
The paper develops a spatial agglomeration index (SPAG) of the economic activity for the point geo‐localizations of firms. It includes the effects of location, the distance between firms and the overlapping impact of the firms' size. The SPAG builds a new class of measures of the spatial density of the economic activity inside the region, based on the ...
