[1] We use the complete set of Ulysses solar wind data to conduct a comprehensive determination of the oxygen flux in relation to the proton flux in the solar wind during a wide range of solar activity levels. The data cover the heliosphere between 1.3 and 5.4 AU and, due to the unique orbit of Ulysses, all of the heliographic latitudes within ±80°. We find log‐normal distributions for O and H ...

Advance directives for psychiatric care are the subject of debate in a number of Western societies. By using psychiatric advance directives (or so-called "Ulysses contracts"), it would be possible for mentally ill persons who are competent and with their disease in remission, and who want timely intervention in case of future mental crisis, to give prior authorisation to treatment at a later ti...

We present the analysis of a large solar near-relativistic electron event observed by the Ulysses and the ACE spacecraft on 8 November 2000, when Ulysses was located at a heliocentric distance of 2.4 AU and at a heliographic latitude of ∼80° S. We use a particle propagation model to infer the local interplanetary transport conditions and the injection histories of the near-relativistic electron...

The final voyage of Ulysses, which is recounted by the Greek hero in the eighth bolgia of Dante’s Inferno, has given rise to much critical debate. An authoritative reading of the episode has been difficult to establish because Ulysses’ monologue appears detached from its context. This occurs as a result of the grandeur of the hero, but also because the voyage seems to have very little in common...

Observations of solar type III bursts, made at kilometric frequencies by the radio receiver of the Ulysses Unified Radio and Plasma Wave (URAP) investigation, are compared with simultaneous observations, made at decametric frequencies at the Nançay Radio Astronomy Station of the ParisMeudonObservatory, during the period following the spacecraft encounter with Jupiter until the south solar polar...

Halo electron velocity distributions have been surveyed during the first full Ulysses southern polar pass from January 1994 through April 1995. The data examined range from approximately 50◦ S heliolatitude to the maximum poleward extent of the Ulysses orbit, approximately 80◦ S, and then back through the solar equator to 35◦ N heliolatitude. During this traversal the radial distance of Ulysses...

Joyce's innovative experimentation in Ulysses has brought him into line with such important writers of the Modernist Movement as Ezra Pound, Virginia Woolf and D. H. Lawrence. As a modernist writer, James Joyce was greatly influenced by Symbolist writing techniques. By probing his use metaphors, one techniques Ulysses, readers may have better understanding connotations implied meanings created ...
