FirstNuSTAR observations of MRK 501 within a radio to TeV multi-instrument campaign
(IOP Publishing, 2015-10-10)We report on simultaneous broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar Markarian 501 between 2013 April 1 and August 10, including the first detailed characterization of the synchrotron peak with Swift and NuSTAR. During ... -
Flicker-induced color and form: Interdependencies and relation to stimulation frequency and phase
(Elsevier, 2006-03)Our understanding of human visual perception generally rests on the assumption that conscious visual states represent the interaction of spatial structures in the environment and our nervous system. This assumption is ... -
A Flood of Light: Comments on the Interpretation Act 2005
(Judicial Studies Institute, 2006)The Interpretation Act 2005 consolidates previous legislation and contains some new provisions inspired by a Law Reform Commission report. These may bring about a subtle but significant change in the methods of statutory ... -
Flood risk management in Ireland: the role of public participation
(2014-10-17)While growing vulnerability to floods globally emphasizes the need to pursue research in this field, the relatively recent engagement in Ireland with this escalating social problem is notably found wanting in both the areas ... -
Fluid dynamics of gas exchange in high-frequency oscillatory ventilation: In vitro investigations in idealized and anatomically realistic airway bifurcation models
(Springer, 2008-11)The objective of this work is to develop understanding of the local fluid dynamic mechanisms that underpin gas exchange in high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV). The flow field during HFOV was investigated ... -
Fluid flow in the osteocyte mechanical environment: a fluid-structure interaction approach
(Springer Verlag, 2013-04-09)Osteocytes are believed to be the primary sensor of mechanical stimuli in bone, which orchestrate osteoblasts and osteoclasts to adapt bone structure and composition to meet physiological loading demands. Experimental ... -
A fluorescence anisotropy method for measuring protein concentration in complex cell culture media
(Elsevier, 2014-03-12)The rapid, quantitative analysis of the complex cell culture media used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing is of critical importance. Requirements for cell culture media composition profiling, or changes in specific analyte ... -
Fluorescence EEM Spectroscopy for Rapid Identification and Quality Evaluation of Cell Culture Media Components.
(Ingenta, 2011-11)The application of fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy to the quantitative analysis of complex, aqueous solutions of cell culture media components was investigated. These components, yeastolate, ... -
Fluorescence emission from petroleum; a valuable information source for petroleum analysis.
(EniTecnologie, 2004)Despite the fact that most crude oils are dark coloured liquids, many are observed to be strongly fluorescent when illuminated with UV light. This fluorescence, which originates from the presence of aromatic compounds, is ... -
Fluorescence lifetime based pH sensing using Resorufin
(2003)Accurate, non-contact pH sensing is of particular importance in the biological and clinical sciences. Fluorescence lifetime based pH sensing is potentially more useful than intensity based methods because of the reduced ... -
Fluorescence study of bovine serum albumin and Ti and Sn Oxide nanoparticles interactions.
(The Optical Society, 2007)Nanochemistry offers stimulating opportunities for a wide variety of applications in the biosciences. Understanding of the interaction of nanoparticles with biomolecules such as proteins is very important as it can help ... -
Fluorescent labeling of NASBA amplified tmRNA molecules for microarray applications
(2009)BACKGROUND: Here we present a novel promising microbial diagnostic method that combines the sensitivity of Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA) with the high information content of microarray technology for ... -
A Fluorescently Labeled, Hyperbranched Polymer Synthesized from DE-ATRP for the Detection of DNA Hybridization
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-01)The early detection of oligonucleotide biomarkers of disease, such as microRNAs, has been established as a fundamental factor in cancer diagnosis. As the levels of these small molecules (microRNAs) in blood have recently ... -
Flutes, pipes, or bagpipes? Observations on the terminology of woodwind instruments in Old and Middle Irish
(Brepols, 2015-01)Old and Middle Irish sources offer a rich array of terms referring to woodwind instruments. However, terms like buinne, cúisech, cuisle, fetán, pípa, etc. are variously translated as ‘flute’, ‘whistle’, ‘pipe’, ‘bagpipe’ ... -
Foinn, focail, féiniúlachtaí: claochlú cultúir sa Chlár 1850-1950

Follow flee: A contingent mobility strategy for the spatial prisoner's dilemma
(Springer Verlag, 2016-08-10)This paper presents results from a series of experimental simulations comparing the performances of mobile strategies of agents participating in the Spatial Prisoner's Dilemma game. The contingent movement strategies Walk ... -
Food consumption and dietary behaviour of children from the Traveller community: data from the 2006 Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) survey.
(Cambridge Journals Online / The Nutrition Society, 2008-06-20)The Travelling community are an indigenous ethnic group of Irish people with a distinct culture and history of nomadism. Travellers differ from the general population in many aspects, including their lifestyle, culture and ... -
