... Z Machine Sets Unexpected Earth Temperature Record . ... Credit: Z Machine Collaboration , Sandia National Lab , Lockheed Martin , NNSA, DOE Explanation: Why is this plasma so hot? ... What is known for sure is that the Z Machine running at Sandia National Laboratories created a plasma that was unexpectedly hot. The plasma reached a temperature in excess of two billion Kelvin , making it the hottest thing ever in the history of the Earth and, for a brief time, hotter than the interiors of stars. ...

... These are ``quirks'' rather than ``bugs''. Below is a list of quirks. When loading a file and ``Reset Intensity Upon File Load'' is disabled, the intensity range of the previous image will be used. ... When moving between two images (such as when blinking, or when loading a new image), the display system attempts to retain the old image parameters (i.e. zoom box). What is retained are the corners of the zoom box measured in image pixel co-ordinates, not world co-ordinates. ...

... Predicting the 1999 Leonid Storm : David Asher also explained previous Leonid meteor storms (notably the great storms of 1833 and 1966), and together with Rob McNaught (Australian National University, Siding Spring Observatory) made accurate predictions for the times of the `normal' storm trails of the Leonids. The prediction for the 1999 storm (for November 18 02 08 ) turned out to be `spot-on', and made headlines around the world. ...

Perhaps the greatest theoretical achievement of physics in the 19th century was the discovery of electromagnetic waves. ... It is possible to use this to define a unit of electric charge, as the charge which repels a similar charge at a distance of, say, 1 meter, with a force of unit strength (actual formulas make this precise). ... But "field" originally only meant the force a magnet or an electric charge could expect at a point in space, if it were placed there. ...

One could then define the unit of current, as the current which, when flowing in a straight wire, attracts a similar current in a parallel wire 1 meter away with a force of unit strength, for every meter of the wires' length. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...
