Surveying abundance and stand type associations of Formica aquilonia and F. lugubris (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) nest mounds over an extensive area : Trialing a novel method
(2012-01-03) - Journal articleRed wood ants are ecologically important members of woodland communities, and some species are of conservation concern. They occur commonly only in certain habitats in Britain, but there is limited knowledge of their numbers ... -
Erwin Schrödinger and quantum wave mechanics
(2017-08-22) - Journal articleThe fathers of matrix quantum mechanics believed that the quantum particles are unanschaulich (unvisualizable) and that quantum particles pop into existence only when we measure them. Challenging the orthodoxy, in 1926 ... -
Spontaneous reconnection at a separator current layer : I. Nature of the reconnection
(2015-12) - Journal articleMagnetic separators, which lie on the boundary between four topologically-distinct flux domains, are prime locations in three-dimensional magnetic fields for reconnection, especially in the magnetosphere between the planetary ... -
Occurrence, distribution and abundance of cetaceans in Onslow Bay, North Carolina, USA
(2014) - Journal articleIn this paper the occurrence, distribution and abundance of cetaceans in offshore waters of Onslow Bay, North Carolina, USA is described. Between June 2007 and June 2010 monthly aerial and shipboard line-transect surveys ... -
Resistive magnetohydrodynamic reconnection : resolving long-term, chaotic dynamics
(2013-09-13) - Journal articleIn this paper, we address the long-term evolution of an idealised double current system entering reconnection regimes where chaotic behavior plays a prominent role. Our aim is to quantify the energetics in high magnetic ...
