Between-subject differences in the shape of the nasal visual field were assessed for 103 volunteers 21-85years of age and free of visual disorder. Perimetry was conducted with a stimulus for which contrast sensitivity is minimally affected by peripheral defocus and decreased retinal illumination. One eye each was tested for 103 volunteers free of eye disease in a multi-center prospective longit...

According to modern developments in turbulence theory, the ”dissipation” scales (u.v. cut-offs) η form a random field related to velocity increments δηu. In this work we, using Mellin’s transform combined with the Gaussain large -scale boundary condition, calculate probability densities (PDFs) of velocity increments P (δru, r) and the PDF of the dissipation scales Q(η,Re), where Re is the large...

An ever present goal of seismic processing and inversion is to extract meaningful geology information from seismic data. The simplest possibility is to invert for seismic impedances, or, considering density constant, invert for velocities. Here I use a micro genetic algorithm program to achieve this goal. I use a real sonic log to compute a synthetic seismic trace and then use that trace as inp...

We combine radial velocities, proper motions, and low resolution abundances for a sample of 315 K and M giants in the Baade’s Window (l, b) = (0.9◦,−4◦) Galactic bulge field. The velocity ellipsoid of stars with [Fe/H] > −0.5 dex shows a vertex deviation in the plot of radial versus transverse velocity, consistent with that expected from a population with orbits supporting a bar. We demonstrate...
