(1) If the Bicep2 result stands, the observation will be touted as evidence for cosmic inflation, the rapid expansion of the universe around a trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second after the big bang.
(2) "The Lib Dems are either cosmically ill-informed or seeking to pull the wool over the eyes of many thousands whose jobs depend on a thriving shipyard," he said.
(3) Our planet, though tiny, could be cosmically important.
(4) The determination of permissible exposure to x-rays of our patients' during by diagnostic radiology was measured by ionometer, and compared with cosmic, natural and technical x-rays.
(5) This FAA- and NASA-sponsored study of cosmic radiation doses recieved by United States residents flying in commercial jet aircraft is the most extensive to date and combines computer calculations with experimental data.
(6) The discovery , which provides the first direct evidence of cosmic inflation – the long-held idea that in the fraction of a second after the big bang the universe underwent a massive growth spurt – was made by studying the polarisation pattern of the radiation left over from the universe's early years, the so-called cosmic microwave background (CMB).
(7) The conformer energies of both the free bases and the piperidinium salts can be quantitatively predicted by molecular mechanics calculations using the COSMIC force-field, in which the electrostatic interactions are calculated by a simple Coulombic model with the partial atomic charges in the molecules given by the CHARGE2 routine, and an effective dielectric constant of five.
(8) Scientists have found the first solid evidence for cosmic neutrinos, ghostly particles created in violent events in the far reaches of the universe.
(9) This paper deals with the changes in per capita and collective dose equivalent in Taiwan in the past three decades based on the measured terrestrial and cosmic radiation levels and the population distribution as well.
(10) These findings suggest a high biological effectiveness of heavy ions of galactic cosmic rays.
(11) 3M discs and the rough corundum discs caused significantly more surface roughness of the Cosmic surface.
(12) Researchers at Harvard University called a press conference in March to reveal that they had spotted the cosmic signature of ripples in space left over from the spectacular expansion of the early universe.
(13) Concentration of the radio nuclide beryllium-7, produced by cosmic rays, was measured in waters collected from both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
(14) The effect of cosmic radiation on air-dry lettuce (Lactuca sativa) seeds was investigated.
(15) Therapeutic 'dry' immersion (modified 'dry' immersion technique suggested earlier for simulation of the weightlessness state in cosmic research) was used in multiple-modality treatment of 15 patients with drug-resistant edematous syndrome of different origin.
(16) She's one of three immortal entities (together with Mrs Which and Mrs Whatsit) embroiled in a long struggle against the evil Black Thing, a cosmic cloud of darkness.
(17) Natural background radiation, from cosmic rays and sources in the air and rock, reaches 2 to 3 millisieverts per year.
(18) This is indicative of a significant contribution of galactic cosmic radiation to the radiobiological effect.
(19) He joined forces with two other teams with similar aims and in late 1982 Nasa agreed to go ahead with their plans, scheduling the collaboration's proposed cosmic background explorer (Cobe) satellite for launch in 1988 on a space shuttle.
(20) Nicholas Brady's text updated the science a bit, and Purcell created some gloriously crunchy dissonances resolving to broad, bright harmony as he praised Cecilia, the embodiment of music, and her role in creating cosmic harmony out of atomic chaos: "Soul of the World!
