The Galactic Disk Mass Function: Reconciliation of the [ITAL]Hubble Space Telescope[/ITAL] and Nearby Determinations

We derive and parametrize the Galactic mass function (MF) below 1 $\msol$ characteristic of both single objects and binary systems. We resolve the long standing discrepancy betw...

PROCEDURES FOR THE CHROMATOGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF AMINO ACIDS ON FOUR PER CENT CROSS-LINKED SULFONATED POLYSTYRENE RESINS

Simplified Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System

Objectives To validate a simplified version of the Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System, the TISS-28, and to determine the association of TISS-28 with the time spent on score...

Araldite as an Embedding Medium for Electron Microscopy

Epoxy resins are suitable media for embedding for electron microscopy, as they set uniformly with virtually no shrinkage. A mixture of araldite epoxy resins has been developed w...

Causal Parameters and Policy Analysis in Economics: A Twentieth Century Retrospective*

The major contributions of twentieth century econometrics to knowledge were the definition of causal parameters within well-defined economic models in which agents are constrain...

HealthMap: Global Infectious Disease Monitoring through Automated Classification and Visualization of Internet Media Reports

A new sensitive method for qualitative and quantitative assay of neomycin phosphotransferase in crude cell extracts

Advancing Knowledge about Co-Offending: Results from a Prospective Longitudinal Survey of London Males

Perhaps the most frequently documented conclusion about delinquent behavior is that most offenses are committed with others rather than by persons acting alone.Breckenridge and ...

Surveillance Sans Frontières: Internet-Based Emerging Infectious Disease Intelligence and the HealthMap Project

John Brownstein and colleagues discuss HealthMap, an automated real-time system that monitors and disseminates online information about emerging infectious diseases.

The Discovery of a Luminous [CLC][ITAL]z[/ITAL][/CLC] = 5.80 Quasar from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

We present observations of SDSSp J104433.04--012502.2, a luminous quasar at z=5.80 discovered from Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) multicolor imaging data. This object was selec...

Weak Lensing with Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data: The Galaxy-Mass Correlation Function to 1 [CLC][ITAL]h[/ITAL][/CLC][TSUP]−1[/TSUP] M[CLC]pc[/CLC]

(abridged) We present measurements of galaxy-galaxy weak lensing from early commissioning imaging data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We measure a mean tangential she...
