Middle atmospheric general circulation models (GCMs) must employ a parameterization for small-scale gravity waves (GWs). Such parameterizations typically make very simple assumptions about gravity wave sources, such as uniform distribution in space and time or an arbitrarily specified GW source function. The authors present a configuration of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM)...

When testing gravity in a model-independent way, one of the crucial tests is measuring the propagation speed of a gravitational wave (GW). In general relativity, a GW propagates with the speed of light, while in the alternative theories of gravity, the propagation speed could deviate from the speed of light due to the modification of gravity or spacetime structure at a quantum level. Previously...

The MICs of GW 773546, GW 708408, and telithromycin for 164 macrolide-susceptible and 161 macrolide-resistant pneumococci were low. The MICs of GW 773546, GW 708408, and telithromycin for macrolide-resistant strains were similar, irrespective of the resistance genotypes of the strains. Clindamycin was active against all macrolide-resistant strains except those with erm(B) and one strain with a ...

Detecting and estimating unmodeled transient gravitational wave (GW) signals in noisy data is a major challenge in GW data analysis. This paper explores a solution that combines spline based regression with Particle Swarm Optimization for knot placement and directional parameter estimation. First, the estimation of binary black hole merger signals in data from a single GW detector is used as a ...

This paper gives a new definition of general weighted (GW) fairness and shows how this can achieve various fairness definitions, such as those mentioned in the ATM Forum TM 4.0 specifications. The GW fairness can be achieved by calculating the ExcessFairshare (weighted fairshare of the left over bandwidth) for each VC. We show how a switch algorithm can be modified to support the GW fairness by...

We perform GW calculations on atoms and diatomic molecules at different levels of self-consistency and investigate the effects of self-consistency on total energies, ionization potentials, and particle number conservation. We further propose a partially self-consistent GW scheme in which we keep the correlation part of the self-energy fixed within the self-consistency cycle. This approximation ...

Stochastic gravitational waves (GW) associated with unresolved astrophysi-cal sources at frequency bands of the ongoing GW interferometers LIGO/VIRGO and LISA are studied. We show that GW noise from rotating galactic neutron stars with low magnetic fields may reach the advanced LIGO sensitivity level at frequency f ∼ 100 Hz. Within LISA frequency band (10 −4 − 10 −1 Hz), the GW background from ...

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this observational descriptive study of morphological research is to assess the nervous structures within the embryonic and early fetal brains not previously documented in literature by HDlive and Silhouette® modes. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 26 subjects were examined in vivo, i.e. 15 embryos and 11 fetuses in the first trimester of pregnancy (7 to 13 gestational weeks (GW)...

BACKGROUND This study focuses on long-term mortality, specifically brain cancer, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis (MS) of 621,902 veterans who served in the 1990-1991 Persian Gulf War (GW), and 746,248 non-GW veterans. METHODS Follow-up began with the date the veteran left the GW theater or May 1, 1991 and ended with the date of death or Decembe...

Power density producing damage at a probability of 0.5 (ie, damage threshold, DT-50) was determined for PMMA (with/without UV absorber) and Silicone intraocular lenses. Scattered light from a collinear diagnostic He:Ne beam was one of four damage monitors deployed to enhance the sensitivity of the system. In order of increasing laser resistance the following results were obtained: injection mol...
