HD185510 (=V1379 Aql) is an eclipsing double-lined RS CVn binary containing a K0 III/IV giant and a hot subluminous companion. An IUE ultraviolet light curve has been obtained through the eclipse of the companion with an average time resolution of one measurement every 19 minutes. This was suucient to resolve all four times of contact and, with data from previous work on this system, to derive ...

The Galileo spacecraft has detected diffuse optical emissions from Io in high-resolution images acquired while the satellite was eclipsed by Jupiter. Three distinct components make up Io's visible emissions. Bright blue glows of more than 300 kilorayleighs emanate from volcanic plumes, probably due to electron impact on molecular sulfur dioxide. Weaker red emissions, possibly due to atomic oxyg...

OBJECTIVE To examine the plausibility of health claims for Eclipse, a novel smoking article being marketed by the RJ Reynolds Tobacco Company (RJR) as potentially reducing the risk of cancer and other diseases compared to conventional cigarettes. DATA SOURCES A company product website (www.eclipse.rjrt.com) summarising scientific studies of various versions of Eclipse, and the published revie...

A total eclipse occurred on 11 August 1999 with its path of totality passing over central Europe in the latitude range 40–50 N. The ionospheric responses to this eclipse were measured by a wide ionosonde network. On the basis of the measurements of foE, foF1, and foF2 at sixteen ionosonde stations in Europe, we statistically analyze the variations of these parameters with a function of eclipse ...

Nine healthy volunteers were studied on the seventh day of dosing at 21:00 h with nizatidine 150 mg (N 150), nizatidine 300 mg (N 300), ranitidine 300 mg (R 300), or placebo, given in a predetermined random order. The double-blind 24 hour studies, using the Royal Free Hospital standard protocol, simultaneously measured intragastric acidity and plasma gastrin concentration. Compared with placebo...

Abstract We present new X-ray and UV observations of the Wolf–Rayet + black hole (BH) binary system NGC 300 X-1 with Chandra Observatory Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Origins Spectrograph. When combined archival observations, our sample entire orbit, providing clues to geometry interaction between BH accretion disk donor star wind. measure a orbital period 32.7921 ± 0.0003 hr, in agreement prev...

While many researchers have used Eclipse as a platform for developing software engineering and program analysis tools, Eclipse itself presents an excellent subject for analysis and study. Eclipse represents one of the biggest Java projects ever created. While surprisingly robust, Eclipse still suffers from serious bugs that lead to crashes and resource exhaustion. Eclipse is a collaborative dev...

Measurements of atmospheric temperature profiles in the troposphere and lower stratosphere were made over Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) (8.5 N, 76.9 E) during a partial solar eclipse (22 July 2009) and an annular solar eclipse (15 January 2010). It was observed that during the partial solar eclipse, the temperature decreased by 2–3 C in the vicinity of the tropopause and in...
