The outbursts and environments of novae
Classical and Recurrent novae (CNe/RNe) are interacting close binary systems in which mass is transferred from a donor star to the surface of an accreting compact companion resulting in an outburst. Their study is important for our understanding of several branches of modern day astrophysics. The …

Investigation of the Progenitors and Outbursts of Classical and Recurrent Novae
… novae (CNe) are interacting binary systems whose outbursts are powered by a thermonuclear runaway in accreted material on the surface of a white dwarf (WD). The secondary stars in such systems fill their Roche lobe and material is transferred onto the WD primary star via an accretion …

Public Elementary Teachers' Experiences With Explosive Student Outbursts: A Qualitative Phenomenological Study
… resulting from experiencing students’ explosive outbursts (Bostic et al., 2021). The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of public general education elementary teachers who experienced explosive student outbursts at school. Two research questions guided this study: How do …

Individual case study: verbalizing emotions to reduce aggressive outbursts in an autistic adult
The purposes of this individual case study were to (a) to decrease the maladaptive behaviors displayed by the participant and (b) have the participant verbalize his feelings before they build up to cause the maladaptive behavior. The study used positive reinforcement and rewards to reinforce the …

How circumstellar discs affect mass accretion in Be X-ray binaries
… radii affect mass accretion producing X-ray outbursts. Type I outbursts are seen to occur when the disc is truncated close to/beyond the mean critical Roche lobe radius at periastron passage of the neutron star, in agreement with model predictions. Type II outbursts, however, do not show any …

Frontal cortical asymmetry and impulsive aggression.
… individuals who display impulsive aggressive outbursts and measures resting frontal cortical activity. Impulsive aggression (IA) is described as a reactive or emotionally charged aggressive response characterized by a loss of behavioral control. Previous physiological studies have found IAs …

Sedimentology and Stratigraphy of Glacial Lake Souris, North Dakota: effects of a glacial-lake outburst
<p>Glacial-lake outbursts commonly occurred along the southern margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet as ice-marginal lakes suddenly drained. These outbursts released huge volumes of water with tremendous erosive potential, forming large trench-shape channels. Although glacial-lake spillways have been …

X-ray timing of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
… Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer covering 4 transient outbursts (1998-2005). Substantial pulse shape variability, both stochastic and systematic, was observed during each outburst. Analysis of the systematic pulse shape changes suggests that, as an outburst dims, the X-ray "hot spot" on the pulsar …

Vexatious Bodies in Modern Ireland
… within dominant structures. While periodic outbursts of the vexatious pressurised official structures, the hegemonic expansion and contraction of official discourses returned it to a space beyond the parameters of dominant discourses, illustrated through examples involving infanticide and …

The (Re)emergence of eco-fascism : white-nationalism, sacrifice, and proto-fascism in the circulation of digital rhetoric in the ecological far-right.
… and leftist politics. A recent uptick in violent outbursts by white nationalists espousing eco-fascist political beliefs indicates a troubling trend in environmental politics. Brenton Tarrant, the Christchurch shooter, and Patrick Crusius, the El Paso Shooter, explicitly utilized argumentative …

Analysis of Molecular Variability Due to Accretion Bursts in the Protoplanetary Disk of Ex Lup as Observed with the James Webb Space Telescope
… accretion variability, experiences burst and outbursts of high magnitude increases on short time scales (a few months to ~1yr). The 2008 outburst of EX Lup, observed with Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS), was analyzed in great detail to understand the mechanisms and effects of accretion …

Application of statistical analysis techniques to solar and stellar phenomena
… of this research is dedicated to recurrent nova outbursts. RS Ophiuehi is a nova produced by a white dwarf star and a red giant. In this case the white dwarf will steadily acerete gases on its surface from the red giant's outer atmosphere. About every twenty years, enough material will be …

The Relationship Between Episodes of Dissociative Amnesia, Symptomology of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Childhood Sexual Abuse
… and more likely to exhibit irritability and outbursts of anger. The data additionally suggest that certain PTSD symptoms predict dissociative amnesia. Subjects who experienced episodes of dissociative amnesia are more likely to have experienced traumatic events, more likely to experience …

The foundations of antisemitism in South Africa : images of the Jew c.1870-1930
… before 1930 and that the roots of anti-Jewish outbursts in the 1930s and early 1940s are to be found in a widely-shared negative stereotype of the Jew that had developed out of an ambivalent image dating back to the 1880s. By then two embryonic but nevertheless distinctive images of the Jew had …

Hydrodynamic and Magnetohydrodynamic Convection in Accretion Disks
… turbulent transport is weak) and MRI-dominated outbursts. During these outbursts angular momentum transport is enhanced by nearly an order of magnitude. Thus convection and the MRI do not generally interact in an additive manner, though they can certainly interact in non-trivial ways. In …
