We present the first measurement of planet frequency beyond "snow line," for planet-to-star mass-ratio interval −4.5 < log q −2, corresponding to range ice giants gas giants. find at mean mass ratio = 5 × 10−4 with no discernible deviation from a flat (Öpik's law) distribution in log-projected separation s. The determination is based on sample six planets detected intensive follow-up observations high-magnification (A>200) microlensing events during 2005–2008. sampled host stars have typical...
Aims. We report the discovery of a planet with high planet-to-star mass ratio in microlensing event MOA-2009-BLG-387, which exhibited pronounced deviations over 12-day interval, one longest for any planetary event. The host is an M dwarf, range 0.07 M⊙ < Mhost 0.49 at 90% confidence. planet-star q = 0.0132 ± 0.003 has been measured extremely well, so best-estimated mass, mp 2.6 Jupiter masses median 0.19 M⊙.
Stress influences numerous psychological and physiological processes, its effects have practical implications in a variety of professions real-world activities. However, few studies concurrently assessed multiple behavioral, hormonal, nutritional heart-rate responses humans to acute, severe stress. This investigation simultaneously cognitive, affective, induced by an intensely stressful environment designed simulate wartime captivity. Sixty males were evaluated during immediately following...
Pilot fatigue poses a serious threat to operational safety, but understanding the nature of problem and times at which pilots are most risk will facilitate operationally relevant fatigue-management strategies. This investigation sought address these issues in controlled impact sustained wakefulness on Air Force aviators. Ten current qualified F-117 completed Multi-At-tribute Task Battery (MATB), Profile Mood States (POMS), resting eyes-open eyes-closed EEG, standardized flight evaluation an...
Abstract Dunican, IC, Martin, DT, Halson, SL, Reale, RJ, Dawson, BT, Caldwell, JA, Jones, MJ, and Eastwood, PR. The effects of the removal electronic devices for 48 hours on sleep in elite judo athletes. J Strength Cond Res 31(10): 2832–2839, 2017—This study examined evening use (i.e., smartphones, etc.) quality next-day athletic cognitive performance Over 6 consecutive days nights, 23 Australian athletes were monitored while attending a camp at Institute Sport (AIS). In 14 athletes, all...
Recent evidence suggests that underlying patterns of cortical activation may partially account for individual differences in susceptibility to the effects sleep deprivation. Here, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used examine military pilots whose sleep-deprivation vulnerability previously quantified. A Sternberg Working Memory Task (SWMT; S. Sternberg, 1966) completed alternately with a control task during 13-min blood oxygen level-dependent fMRI scan. Examination activated...
Summary Neonatal behaviour in a group of infants whose mothers received pethidine during labour was assessed at delivery and the first six weeks life by means Brazelton Behavioural Assessment Scale. The influence total maternal dose umbilical cord blood concentration drug on such has been examined with confounding effects all other variables controlled. Higher levels were associated babies who more prone to respiratory difficulties, drowsy unresponsive immediately after delivery. Throughout...
This study evaluated oculometrics as a detector of fatigue in Air Force-relevant tasks after sleep deprivation. Using the metrics total eye closure duration (PERCLOS) and approximate entropy (ApEn), relation between these fatigue-induced performance decrements was investigated.One damaging effect to successful outcome operational military missions is that attributed deprivation-induced fatigue. Consequently, there interest development reliable monitoring devices can assess when an operator...
Recent events have highlighted the importance of pilot fatigue in aviation operations. Because demanding flight schedules, crew members often suffer disrupted sleep and desynchronized circadian rhythms, combination which threatens alertness performance. Unfortunately, market requirements for transcontinental transoceanic routes, as well nighttime departures early-morning arrivals, continue to pose challenges human vigilance flight. However, regulatory attention physiological causes fatigue,...
To examine the relationship between regular game-related caffeine consumption on sleep after an evening Super Rugby game.Twenty elite rugby union players wore a wrist-activity monitor to measure for three days before, and night of game (19:00-21:00). Players ingested as they would normally (i.e. before sometimes during game) saliva samples were collected (17:00) (21:30) concentration.Compared nights leading up game, went bed 3 h later (23:08 ± 66 min vs 02:11 114 min; p < .001) had 1:30...
Abstract Since 2001, the United States has been engaged in longest and most expensive overseas conflict its history. Sleep disorders, especially insomnia obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are common service members appear related to deployment combat exposure, but this not systematically examined. Therefore, incidence of clinically diagnosed OSA from 1997 2011 entire population US Army soldiers was determined associations these disorders with exposure This observational retrospective cohort...
Summary Sleep disorders are a critical issue for the military, as they impact operational readiness, personnel health, wellbeing and health‐care costs. The incidence of insomnia obstructive sleep apnea ( OSA ) increasing in United States civilian population, rates military exceed those civilians. Using comprehensive database, medical encounters were investigated their associations with various demographic factors examined total US population [1,381,406 ± 25,123, mean standard deviation SD...
