Evidence for montmorillonite or its compositional equivalent in Columbia Hills, Mars

2007

During its exploration of the Columbia Hills, the Mars Exploration Rover ‘‘Spirit’’ encountered several similar samples that are distinctly different from Martian meteorites and known Gusev crater soils, rocks, and sediments. Occurring in a variety of contexts and locations, these ‘‘Independence class’’ samples are rough-textured, iron-poor (equivalent FeO 4 wt%), have high Al/Si ratios, and often contain unexpectedly high concentrations of one or more minor or trace elements (including Cr, Ni, Cu, Sr, and Y). Apart from accessory minerals, the major component common to these samples has a compositional profile of major and minor elements whic…

Spirit Mars Rover Mission to the Columbia Hills, Gusev Crater: Mission overview and selected results from the Cumberland Ridge to Home Plate

2008

This paper summarizes the Spirit rover operations in the Columbia Hills of Gusev Crater from sols 513 to 1476 and provides an overview of selected findings that focus on synergistic use of the Athena Payload and comparisons to orbital data. Results include discovery of outcrops (Voltaire) on Husband Hill that are interpreted to be altered impact melt deposits that incorporated local materials during emplacement. Evidence for extensive volcanic activity and aqueous alteration in the Inner Basin is also detailed, including discovery and characterization of accretionary lapilli and formation of sulfate, silica, and hematite-rich deposits. Use of Spirit's data to understand the range of spectra…

Being popular in online social networks: How agentic, communal, and creativity traits relate to judgments of status and liking

2013

We investigated how personality affects both peer-perceived popularity (status) and sociometric popularity (liking) in online social networks (OSNs). Self-ratings of agentic (e.g., extraversion), communal (e.g., agreeableness), and creativity traits (e.g., openness) were collected from 103 OSN profile owners (targets). Unacquainted perceivers provided status and liking judgments based on either targets’ full OSN profiles or profile pictures. Independent coders assessed behavioral cues (e.g., attractiveness) from targets’ OSN profiles. Results showed that targets scoring high on agency were ascribed a high status (without necessarily being liked), whereas targets scoring high on creativity o…

Measurement of the lifetime of tau-lepton

1996

The tau lepton lifetime is measured with the L3 detector at LEP using the complete data taken at centre-of-mass energies around the Z pole resulting in tau_tau = 293.2 +/- 2.0 (stat) +/- 1.5 (syst) fs. The comparison of this result with the muon lifetime supports lepton universality of the weak charged current at the level of six per mille. Assuming lepton universality, the value of the strong coupling constant, alpha_s is found to be alpha_s(m_tau^2) = 0.319 +/- 0.015(exp.) +/- 0.014 (theory). The tau lepton lifetime is measured with the L3 detector at LEP using the complete data taken at centre-of-mass energies around the Z pole resulting in τ τ =293.2 ± 2.0 (stat) ± 1.5 (syst) fs . The c…

I VARI SISTEMI ADR. STUDIO SUGLI STRUMENTI DI RISOLUZIONE ALTERNATIVA DELLE CONTROVERSIE E SUI RAPPORTI CON IL PROCESSO GIURISDIZIONALE

2011

Lo scritto esamina la mediazione delle controversie come strumento di ADR (alternative duispute resolution) e segnala le notevoli differenze tra le disposizioni sulla mediazione e gli strumenti di ADR che sono vigenti in altri paesi. Vengono inotlre sollevati dubbi di legittimità costituzionale della recente disciplina introdotta in Italia dalle disposizioni in materia di mediazione.

Los argumentos de los discursos públicos en torno a la controversia de la vacuna contra el VPH

2014

En este capítulo describimos los distintos argumentos esgrimidos en torno a la controversia de la vacuna contra el VPH en los discursos públicos, desde su implantación hasta la actualidad. El principal objetivo de este trabajo ha consistido en sistematizar cuáles han sido los testimonios de quienes han estado a favor y en contra de la vacunación masiva. Hemos registrado los argumentos del discurso oficial de las sociedades científicas y de los expertos que avalaron la puesta en marcha de este programa de vacunación; y, paralelamente, hemos seleccionado los argumentos de los expertos en salud pública que se han posicionado en contra de la vacunación masiva, así como de los miembros de la Aso…

Coñece-lo mundo baixomedieval hispánico a través dos seus refráns: Los refranes que dizen las viejas tras el fuego

2011

O obxectivo do presente artigo é destacar brevemente algúns aspectos socioculturais, políticos e económicos da baixa Idade Media do reino de Castela (e, por extensión, nalgúns casos, dos restantes reinos cristiáns peninsulares), extraíbles da fosilización formal de enunciados pluriverbais que coñecemos como refráns. Baséase, primeiro, na consideración do refrán como reflexo, en maior ou menor medida, da sociedade do seu tempo (e tamén de épocas anteriores) e, segundo, como depositario non só do saber tradicional que se transmite de xeración en xeración, senón tamén da cultura socioeconómica, material e ambiental de épocas pretéritas. Para iso emprégase como corpus textual os Refranes que di…

Katecheza w szkole czy poza szkołą?

2012

In the contemporary religious education, a great amount of deliberations is devoted to the subject of religious education (by whom? to whom?), its contents (what?), aims (what for?), methods and means (how?), conditioning (where? when?), but only occasionally questions are raised about the need and justification for religious education. Meanwhile, the question of justification for religious education is gaining more and more importance in the situation of increasing secularization of social and personal life. It is important to go back and recall these arguments that justify religious education in various educational environments. The contemporary conditioning of catechesis is undergoing si…
