Close encounters.
IN THE November issue of Nursing Management, airline pilot Chris Mann asked: 'Safety Culture? What safety culture?' ( Mann 2004 ). His paper summarises the training undertaken in the aviation industry particularly in relation to human factors, in recognition of their part in aviation safety. He posed the following questions of the NHS.
متن کاملMass of the Galaxy Inferred from Outer Rotation Curve
Using an outer rotation curve of the Galaxy, we explore the galactic constants and the mass of the Galaxy. We show that Θ0 of 200 km s −1 is more favorable than the IAU standard value of 220 km s, and also show that if Θ0 is smaller than 207 km s −1 the rotation curve beyond 2R0 is declining in Keplerian fashion. In the case of Θ0= 200 km s −1 and R0= 7.6 kpc, the total mass and the extent of t...
متن کاملClose encounters of black holes
This is an introduction into the problem of how to set up black hole initialdata for the matter-free field equations of General Relativity. The approach is semi-pedagogical and addresses a more general audience of astrophysicists and students with no specialized training in General Relativity beyond that of an introductory lecture.1
متن کامل0 Signatures of Galaxy - Cluster Interactions : Spiral Galaxy Rotation Curve Asymmetry , Shape , and Extent
The environmental dependencies of the characteristics of spiral galaxy rotation curves are studied in this work. We use our large, homogeneously collected sample of 510 cluster spiral galaxy rotation curves to test the claim that the shape of a galaxy’s rotation curve strongly depends on its location within the cluster, and thus presumably on the strength of the local intracluster medium and on...
متن کاملEntangled Histories and Close Encounters
AS WE REWRITE the history of the post-1945 years in the aftermath of the political upheavals of 1989, we are only now rediscovering what was amply obvious to contemporaries: that occupied Germany in the immedi ate postwar period was the unlikely, unloved, and reluctant host to hun dreds of thousands of its former victims, housed both inside and outside refugee camps mainly in the American zon...
