Just as physics determines physically viable movements, the spatial distribution of input excitations allows the cerebellum to choose physiologically viable beams. Cerebellar–motor coherence implies that the ordering and modes of combination of cerebellar beams reflect (1) the way movement invariants are ordered and combined in movement and (2) the way physical principles are integrated in learning to move.

The physical principles giving rise to synchrotron radiation(SR), the facilities necessary to make use of this source of radiation and the way in which it can be used for x-ray diffraction experiments have been described in other parts of this proceedings. The use of synchrotron radiation as an excitation source for x-ray fluorescence takes advantage of many of its unique properties to provide the potential for an improved analytical capability, beyond that which can be realized with more conventional laboratory x-ray sources. Workers around the world are studying this application (as well as a wide variety of others) , to establish the potential of this technique. Table 1 lists some of the facilities where significant XRF effort is being expended. This list is not intended to be complete, but just to convey some idea of the magnitude of the research which is being carried out.

Limitations imposed by the geometry of Soller collimator systems on luminosity and resolution of neutron diffraction equipment are studied on the grounds of angular and spatial distribution of neutrons. Transmission functions for collimator systems of arbitrary complexity are derived. The influence of the mutual distances among the various components of the experimental set-up on the shape of transmission functions is given in evidence. Careful intensity measurements performed with well diversified arrangements of Soller collimators are in fair agreement with our theoretical results. The way to improve the performances of neutron diffraction equipment by a proper choice of all the geometrical parameters is shown.

An important aspect of preparing pre-service teachers is to develop their understanding of what constitutes meaningful learning in the study of Geography. This understanding is necessary for prospective and practising Social Science and Geography teachers to interpret existing and changing curricula as thinking professionals. This paper argues that there are several organising concepts that make classroom learning geographical in nature. These are place, spatial distribution, spatial processes, and human-environment interactions. The paper draws on the nature of geographical enquiry to consider what questions could steer classroom learning. This set of questions is then used as a lens to reflect on the way in which the current national curriculum (namely, CAPS) supports (and sometimes constrains) learners’ development of geographical thinking. To teach Geography effectively, Social Science teachers need to identify the central concepts they foreground in their lessons, as well as how to develop geographical thinking around those concepts. I suggest that teachers need to regard themselves first as subject experts, and then as interpreters of curricula, in order to be able to interpret the geographical nature of the content to be taught.

Abstract In the last few years, Romania’s forests have become one of the most interesting and most talked about topics for an increasing number of researchers from the most varied fields, both nationally and internationally. The present study aims at analyzing as accurately as possible the forests of Iasi County, especially forests with primary functions of protection, following the changes occurred after 1990 and the way these affected the functional framing of the forests and their state. This research has been accomplished based on precise statistical data collected from every region (or forestry district), these in turn being matched with maps, satellite images and aerial imagery.

This study includes the description of thirty three speleothem types, which were found in the Perama cave, Ioannina, NW Greece, according to the international literature, along with the interpretation of their formation, for the first time in Greece. The detailed study of these speleothems coupled with observations of the way of their formation and their spatial distribution enabled us to suggest that the Perama cave evolved through a sequence of episodes that include dissolution of the host Senonian limestone, collapse of its roof formations, as well as alternating events of formation of stalactitic- and stalagmitic-type speleothems with excess water flow and/or flooding, which resulted in the development of stream formations

This paper describes the salient features of the evolution of restaurants and bars in Vieux-Québec since 1900. Their spatial distribution has led to the creation of three distinct sectors within the historic district. The paper also focuses on how two different cultures, popular culture and "élite culture", are identifiable in the way proprietors describe their establishments.

AbstractThe problem of extended fusion and identification can be approached from a diachronic perspective. Based on our own research, as well as findings from the fields of social, political, and clinical psychology, we argue that the way contemporary emotional events shape local fusion is similar to the way in which historical experiences shape extended fusion. We propose a reciprocal process in which historical events shape contemporary identities, whereas contemporary identities shape interpretations of past traumas.

Ap stars are peculiar in many aspects. During this century astronomers have been trying to collect data about these and have found a confusing variety of peculiar behaviour even from star to star that Struve stated in 1942 that at least we know that these phenomena are not supernatural. A real push to start deeper theoretical work on Ap stars was given by an additional observational evidence, namely the discovery of magnetic fields on these stars by Babcock (1947). This originated the concept that magnetic fields are the cause for spectroscopic and photometric peculiarities. Great leaps for the astronomical mankind were the Oblique Rotator model by Stibbs (1950) and Deutsch (1954), which by the way provided mathematical tools for the later handling pulsar geometries, anti the discovery of phase coincidence of the extrema of magnetic field, spectrum and photometric variations (e.g. Jarzebowski, 1960).
