The spatial experiences of dwarfs within public spaces
Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research, 2015 Dwarfism is commonly defined as anyone 4ft 10? (147.32 cm) or below and whose short stature involves a medical condition [Adelson, M. B. 2005. 'The Lives of Dwarfs', xv. NJ: Rutgers University Press].

The Astrophysical JournalWe increase the spectroscopic completeness of the 100 pc white dwarf sample in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey footprint with 840 additional spectra. Our spectroscopy is 86% complete for white dwarfs hotter than T _eff = 5000 K, where H α remains visible ...

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This narrative literature review examines key issues surrounding psychosocial disability support in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). It highlights the NDIS's neoliberal approach to support, which has underpinned a lack of clarity around the conceptualisation of psychosocial disability and recovery.

Sub-stellar objects with habitable-zone temperatures: A new search for Y dwarfs in WISE
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 A method is defined for using the maximum sensitivity of WISE to find late T and Y dwarfs. This requires a WISE detection only in the W2-band and uses the statistical properties of the WISE multi-frame measurements and profile fit photometry to reject ...

The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Discovery of Four Field Methane (T-type) Dwarfs with 2MASS [PDF]
arXiv, 1999 We report the discovery of four field methane (T-type) brown dwarfs using 2MASS survey data. One additional methane dwarf, previously discovered by SDSS, was also identified. Near-infrared spectra clearly show the 1.6 and 2.2 um CH4 absorption bands characteristic of objects with T_eff < 1300 K, as well as broadened H2O bands at 1.4 and 1.9 um ...

The Astrophysical JournalWe present the most precise constraints to date for the mass and age distributions of single ultracool dwarfs in the solar neighborhood, based on an updated volume-limited sample of 504 L, T, and Y dwarfs within 25 pc.

The Astrophysical JournalDisequilibrium chemistry due to vertical mixing in the atmospheres of many brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets is well established. Atmosphere models for these objects typically parameterize mixing with the highly uncertain K _zz diffusion parameter.
