Young Offenders: Children in Need of Protection Raymond Arthur

The Institute of Public Policy Research recommended that the government in England and Wales should establish a unified youth justice system, based on the Scottish Reporter system, for assessing the nature of intervention needed by young offenders. This article examines the Scottish youth justice system, the French youth justice systems and the youth justice system in England and Wales. The art...

Hoyle–Lyttleton Accretion onto Accretion Disks

We investigate Hoyle–Lyttleton accretion for the case where the central source is a luminous accretion disk. In classical Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion onto a “spherical” source, accretion takes place in an axially symmetric manner around a so-called accretion axis. In the spherical case the accretion rate Ṁ is given as ṀHL(1− Γ), where ṀHL is the accretion rate of the classical Hoyle–Lyttleton acc...

Cclxii. the Significance of Phosphatase Estimations in the Adult Fowl. by Douglas William Auchinachie and Arthur Raymond Gordon Emslie

KAY [1930] showed that in certain bone diseases in man the plasma-phosphatase activity is considerably higher than normal. This served as an impetus for investigation into the activity of the enzyme in plasma and tissues under different conditions in man and experimental animals. The literature has been reviewed by Kay [1932] and by Robison [1932], and it is unnecessary to go into it in great d...

A Review of Bondi–Hoyle–Lyttleton Accretion

If a point mass moves through a uniform gas cloud, at what rate does it accrete material? This is the question studied by Bondi, Hoyle and Lyttleton. This paper draws together the work performed in this area since the problem was first studied. Time has shown that, despite the simplifications made, Bondi, Hoyle and Lyttleton made quite accurate predictions for the accretion rate. Bondi–Hoyle–Ly...
