Judging Offenders With Intellectual Disabilities: Systematic Review of Criminal Justice System Professionals' Expressed Views and Attitudes Towards Offenders With Intellectual Disabilities

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of an intellectual disability is suggested to have particularly stigmatising connotations, particularly within the criminal justice system (CJS). This paper aims to synthesise qualitative studies investigating the attitudes of CJS professionals to people with intellectual disabilities (PWID), specifically offenders ...

White Dwarf Stars

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1980
The violated rule to which Professor Eddington referred was the mass­ luminosity relation for dwarf stars. The "strange objects" had the exceed­ ingly low luminosities of the faint red dwarfs, yet their colors were quite bluish. Thus, they came to be called white dwarfs.

White Dwarf Stars [PDF]

open access: possible, 1992
White dwarf stars represent the most common endpoint of stellar evolution. In fact, about 90% of all stars will end up as white dwarfs. Their high temperatures and low luminosities imply that they are small — only about the size of the Earth (R e = 0.009R⊙). The mean radius for white dwarfs is R = 0.01 R⊙ (see the first table).

Physics of white dwarf stars [PDF]

open access: possibleReports on Progress in Physics, 1990
White dwarf stars, compact objects with extremely high interior densities, are the most common end product in the evolution of stars. The authors review the history of their discovery, and of the realisation that their structure is determined by the physics of the degenerate electron gas.

The crystallization of white dwarf stars [PDF]

open access: possibleNature Astronomy, 2019
Recent observations with the Gaia satellite have confirmed that the cores of cooling white dwarf stars undergo crystallization, as predicted half a century ago.

White Dwarfs and Neutron Stars [PDF]

open access: possible, 2004
This chapter on the physics of compact objects begins with a section on white dwarfs. It will be shown that the famous Chandrasekhar equation is just the relativistic Thomas–Fermi equation. For white dwarfs the Thomas–Fermi approximation is ideally justified. For neutron stars the general relativistic stellar structure equations are needed.
