Deep SAURON Spectral-Imaging of the diffuse Lyman-alpha halo LAB1 in SSA22
(2004-06)We have used the SAURON panoramic integral field spectrograph to study the structure of the Ly-alpha emission-line halo, LAB1, surrounding the sub-millimeter galaxy SMM J221726+0013. This emission-line halo was discovered ... -
Deep structure of the ocean-continent transition in the southern Iberia Abyssal Plain from seismic refraction profiles: Ocean Drilling Program (Legs 149 and 173) transect
(1999-04)We present a wide-angle seismic refraction study of an 80x40 km region of the southern Iberia Abyssal Plain, south of Galicia Bank. An intersecting grid of two E-W and four NS wide-angle reflection/refraction profiles is ... -
Deep structure of the ocean-continent transition in the southern Iberia Abyssal Plain from seismic refraction profiles: The IAM-9 transect at 40 degrees 20 ' N
(2000-03)We present a crust and mantle velocity structure for the West Iberia passive continental margin derived from a 320-km-long wide-angle seismic profile acquired in the southern Iberia Abyssal Plain. We observe a 170-km-wide ... -
A Deep WSRT 1.4 GHz Radio Survey of the Spitzer Space Telescope FLSv Region
(2004-09)The First Look Survey (FLS) is the first scientific product to emerge from the Spitzer Space Telescope. A small region of this field (the verification strip) has been imaged very deeply, permitting the detection of ... -
Deep-Sea Coral: Their Use As Climate Change Indicators
(2003-04-15)The need for accurate climate change models is a major issue with the increasing concern of global warming. Recently deep-sea corals have been calibrated for seawater temperatures using isotopic ratios since they record ... -
Deformation and metamorphism in the contact aureole of the S. Mt. Batholith, Bedford area
(1996-04-15)This study documents structures related to Halifax Pluton emplacement, in the Bedford area. Intrusion of the Devonian South Mountain Batholith caused both metamorphism and deformation of the Cambrian-Ordovician Meguma ... -
Demand or Supply for Schooling in Rural India?
(2012-11)Is the poor human capital investment by rural Indian families primarily a supply side or a demand side issue? We examine school attendance and total human capital investment time (time in school plus travel time plus in-home ... -
Demise of the garden of Acadia
(DVL Publishing Inc., Liverpool, Nova Scotia, 1981-07)In the late 1970s, plans were being developed for construction of a tidal power barrage at the mouth of the Annapolis River. Much of the land by the river in that area was dyked and was used by farmers for grazing and ... -
Demonstration of the deposition and modification of dietary fatty acids in pinniped blubber using radiolabelled precursors
(2004-07)Radioisotopes are commonly used to study the in vivo metabolism and deposition of dietary fatty acids in adipose tissue. The application of this approach to pinnipeds is problematic because of their large mass and blubber ... -
Density dependence of critical magnetic fields at the metal-insulator bifurcation in two dimensions
(APS through AIP, 2003-01/15)The density dependence of the critical in-plane magnetic field Bc at the bifurcation of the resistivity of two-dimensional electron systems with low levels of disorder is determined using the spin-polarization dependence ... -

Density Variations in the NW Star Stream of M31
(2011-02-17)The Pan Andromeda Archeological Survey (PAndAS) CFHT Megaprime survey of the M31-M33 system has found a star stream which extends about 120 kpc NW from the center of M31. The great length of the stream, and the likelihood ... -
A Density-Functional Benchmark of Vibrational Free-Energy Corrections for Molecular Crystal Polymorphism (Preprint)

Density-operator theory of orbital magnetic susceptibility in periodic insulators
(2011-08)The theoretical treatment of homogeneous static magnetic fields in periodic systems is challenging, as the corresponding vector potential breaks the translational invariance of the Hamiltonian. Based on density operators ... -

Depositional Analysis of a Section of the Lower Meguma (Lower Paleozoic), Ship Harbour, Nova Scotia
(1978-03-15)A section of the lower Meguma (Lower Paleozoic) near Ship Harbour, Nova Scotia, was examined in detail in terms of bed thickness, sedimentary structures and grain size. Interpretation of depositional processes and ... -
Depositional Analysis of the Upper Meguma (Halifax Formation) at Ovens Park, Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia
(1981-03-15)Two sections of the Halifax Formation, Meguma Group (Lower Paleozoic) at Ovens Park, Nova Scotia, were examined for sedimentary structures, grain size and facies associations. Interpretation of the depositional processes ...
