Elite athletes: why does the ‘fire’ burn so brightly?
Background and Purpose: What drives some athletes to achieve at the highest level whilst other athletes fail to achieve their physical potential? Why does the ‘fire’ burn so brightly for some elite athletes and not for others? A good understanding of an athlete’s motivation is critical to a coach designing an appropriate motivational climate to realize an athlete’s physical talent. This paper e...
متن کاملFiber laser systems shine brightly
In fact, the commercial potential of the EDFA is such that the telecommunications industry has invested enormous resources in doped-fiber amplifier development over the past ten years. As a result, steady advances have occurred in fiber fabrication and design as well as in the understanding of the spectroscopic properties of rare-earth ions in a glass matrix. This research has also driven devel...
متن کاملSymmetry as an Epistemic Notion (Twice Over)
Symmetries in physics are a guide to reality. That much is well known. But what is less well known is why symmetry is a guide to reality. What justifies inferences that draw conclusions about reality from premises about symmetries? I argue that answering this question reveals that symmetry is an epistemic notion twice over. First, these inferences must proceed via epistemic lemmas: premises abo...
متن کاملWhen Double is not Twice as Much
Gene and genome duplications provide a playground for various selective pressures and contribute significantly to genome complexity. It is assumed that the genomes of all major eukaryotic lineages possess duplicated regions that result from gene and genome duplication. There is evidence that the model plant Arabidopsis has been subjected to at least three whole-genome duplication events over th...
متن کاملPredicting Nearly As Well As the Optimal Twice Differentiable Regressor
We investigate the problem of sequential piecewise linear regression from a competitive framework. For an arbitrary and unknown data length n, we first introduce a method to partition the regressor space. Particularly, we present a recursive method that divides the regressor space into O(n) disjoint regions (partitions) that can result in approximately 1.5 different piecewise linear models on t...
