Sentences with phrase «first observing run»

From the results of a first observing run, we show that the use of matched filtering improves our adaptive optics system performance, with increases in on - sky H - band Strehl measured up to about a factor of 1.1 with respect to a conventional centre of gravity approach.

Physicists think it must be a really heavy particle that requires a really powerful collision (that's why we didn't see it in the first LHC run) and that it weakly interacts with other particles (which is why we haven't been able to observe it).

If you're trying to win the Ironman Triathlon where contestants must first swim 3.86 kilometers, then bike 180.25 kilometers followed by a 42.20 kilometer run, here are some of the key ingredients you need: A long - term committed outlook, years of consistent and serious training, years of studying and observing other Ironman participants, a mentor, sound nutrition, physical & mental fitness and sleep.

In our present study, we used data from the first three longer CoRoT observing runs, on which a significant part of the candidate follow - up was completed, i.e. the «Initial Run» IRa01 (55 days in the anticenter direction) and the first two «Long Runs», lasting about 150 days each, which targeted the center and the anticenter (LRc01 and LRa01, respectiveruns, on which a significant part of the candidate follow - up was completed, i.e. the «Initial Run» IRa01 (55 days in the anticenter direction) and the first two «Long Runs», lasting about 150 days each, which targeted the center and the anticenter (LRc01 and LRa01, respectiveRuns», lasting about 150 days each, which targeted the center and the anticenter (LRc01 and LRa01, respectively).

In principle, if we run the clock backwards far enough, we could observe the very first stars, aka «Population III stars»: those formed from only those elements created in the first few minutes after the big bang.

The fact that Advanced LIGO detected an event even before the start of its first official observing run is certainly promising!

The first official observing run of Advanced LIGO began 18 September 2015, but the instruments were up and running in «engineering mode» several weeks before that.

I've known Turner for years and first met him when he was at Lotus (he had two stints at the Norfolk company), where he worked on the Corvette ZR1 engine, Lotus's own V8 and numerous skunkworks projects, including a test engine nicknamed Omnivore for its ability to run on virtually any fuel, and an optical engine that allowed the combustion process to be observed through a transparent cylinder.

To that end, an NSF - funded $ 21 million initiative called Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling (SOCCOM) run by Princeton University, and including Climate Central, MBARI, Scripps, University of Washington, University of Arizona and others, was launched in 2014 with the goal of deploying over a six - year period a fleet of autonomous, robotic floats, capable of observing the Southern Ocean (for the first time) year - round and across the entire expanse.

First, the computer climate models on which predictions of rapid warming from enhanced atmospheric greenhouse gas concentration are based «run hot,» simulating two to three times the warming actually observed over relevant periods — during which non-anthropogenic causes probably accounted for some and could have accounted for all the observed warming — and therefore provide no rational basis for predicting future GAT.

Also, we will observe in the next section that when the models with these feedbacks were first run against history, they produced far more warming than we have actually seen (remember the analysis we started this section with — post-industrial warming implies 1 - 1.5 degrees sensitivity, not four).

The Plaintiffs in turn argued that they had first observed cracks in the houses in December 2005 and that it was at this point that the clock started running for the purposes of the Statute of Limitations.
