Iditarod Sled Dog Race
OnMarch 3rd, sixty-six teams from around the world will line up in Anchorage, Alaska to kick off the 40th Annual Iditarod Sled Dog Race. Each team is powered by 16 ‘‘Alaskan sled dogs’’ and one human ‘‘musher,’’ who leads the pack across 1,100 miles of Alaskan wilderness to the Bering Sea town of Nome. The race takes only 8–10 days to complete, with the dogs running 100 miles a day at speeds be...
متن کاملReputation with Opportunities for Coasting
Reputation concerns can discipline agents to take costly effort and generate good outcomes. But what if outcomes are not always observed? We consider a model of reputation with shifting observability, and ask how this affects agents’ incentives. We identify a novel and intuitive mechanism by which infrequent observation or inattention can actually strengthen reputation incentives and encourage ...
متن کاملPushing and coasting in dynamic goal pursuit: coasting is attenuated in bipolar disorder.
In an experience-sampling study, we tested the influence of goal progress on subsequent effort toward that goal among persons with bipolar disorder (BD) and among control subjects without BD. We hypothesized, overall, that unexpectedly low progress toward a goal would lead to an increase in subsequent effort toward that goal, and unexpectedly high progress would lead to a decrease in effort (pe...
متن کاملRecent Progress on Sled
From the following description, it will be seen that SLED raises the accelerator peak energy by 40% if the present 2.7 1s RF pulse length is used. The energy increase ” is 80% if the pulse length is extended to 5 ps. TO do this, however, changes have to be made in the modulators and trigger system, and the maximum repetition rate has to be halved to maintain the present average power level. In ...
متن کاملCoasting Cosmologies with Time Dependent Cosmological Constant
The effect of a time dependent cosmological constant is considered in a family of scalartensor theories. FriedmannRobertsonWalker cosmological models for vacuum and perfect fluid matter are found. They have a linear expansion factor, the so called coasting cosmology, the gravitational ”constant” decreases inversely with time; that is these models satisfy the Dirac Hypotheses. The cosmological ”...
