Preliminary results of the 2001-2002 Gemini sodium monitoring campaign at Cerro Tololo, Chile

In the near future several astronomical observatories in Chile areplanning to use sodium laser guide stars to increase the sky coverageprovided by their adaptive optics facilities. Knowledge of themesospheric sodium layer behavior is crucial to predict the performanceof future laser guide star adaptive optics systems. Whereas the sodiumlayer has been observed quite extensively at several locations

Natural Lifetimes and Hyperfine Structure for K 39 in the 5p^(2)P_(3/2) and 6p^(2)P_(3/2) Levels of the K I Spectrum by Resonance Scattering of Light

The hyperfine coupling constants and the natural radiative lifetimes of the 5 p 2 P 3/2 and 6 p 2 P 3/2 levels of K 39 were determined in a level crossing experiment on an enriched K 39 sample in a sealed-off resonance cell. The following results were obtained: ----- -- a (5 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 1.973 (12) MHz -- a (6 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 0.886 (8) MHz ----- -- b (5 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 0.870 (18) MHz -- b (6 p 2 P 3/

‘The Catholic danger’ : Anti-Catholicism and the formation of Scandinavian national identity

In this paper, I discuss the significance of anti-Catholicism in the construction of Scandinavian identity in the first part of the 20th century, which expressions it took and how it changed over time. Crucial here is the relationship between the existence of a common body of European ideas and developments specific to the Nordic countries. I will show that anti-Catholicism played an important rol

Integrating Packaging and Logistics in Industrial Development

Global Enterprises today are dependent on performance within complex networks. To become effective and efficient, it is more important than ever to organize operations in order to capitalize on resources and to integrate different activities. This means that the supply chain and logistics have become core activities in international enterprises. Transportation has also become an issue based on the

Experimental test-bench development using force control with industrial robots for the analysis of the mechanical response in car seats

Modern safe and high-quality products not only need to have desired properties in terms of geometry, material, features, etc. from a position-interaction point of view. Also compliance, deflection, impact and safety features depending on force-interacting properties are of (increasing) importance. As a key such example, the mechanical response of car seats has been studied, including the contact f
