How Far Energy Efficiency?
Analysts agree about the need for developing both new and cleaner energy resources. At the same time, some argue that energy efficiency can provide only a minimal role in meeting future energy needs. Hence, energy supply is encouraged while energy efficiency is supported only minimally. Analysts Douglas Lightfoot and Christopher Green suggest in a series of papers, for example, that there are p...
متن کاملMammography screening: how far is too far?
INTRODUCTION This study answers the question: 'How far must a Canadian woman travel before the risk of a motor vehicle accident (MVA) outweighs the benefits of mammography screening?'. METHODS Numbers needed to screen and false positive rates were extracted from information in the breast screening guidelines from the Canadian Task Force on screening for breast cancer. Motor vehicle accidents ...
متن کاملColliding Black Holes: How Far Can the Close Approximation Go?
The head-on collision of two momentarily stationary black holes has become a classic problem in general relativity. This is in part due to the fact that it is simple, when compared to more generic collisions, yet can be used as a testbed for ideas that will later be applied in the astrophysically more relevant case of an inspiralling coalescence. The problem is far from academic. The near adven...
متن کاملWhy the Salpeter approximation is not valid in the Sun
We review the derivation of the electrostatic screening effect from first principles. We show that under the conditions prevailing in the Sun the number of particles in the Debye sphere is of the order of unity. Consequently, fluctuations play a dominant role in the screening process and lead to an energy exchange between the scattering particles and the surrounding plasma that depends on the e...
متن کاملHow valid is the tallquist method in screening pregnant women with anemia in poor rural settings of southwestern Nigeria?
Background: Diagnosis of anemia is challenging in resource-poor settings due to inadequate laboratory resources. This study assessed the validity of the Tallquist haemoglobinometer in assessing anemia among pregnant women in Osogbo, Southwestern Nigeria. Methods: This was a cross - sectional study, in which 200 pregnant women of reproductive age were selected using multist...
