Self‐consistent electron acceleration due to inertial Alfvén wave pulsesournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 110(A10), [pp

Watt, Clare E. J., Wright, D. M. , Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Jonathan
We present self-consistent kinetic simulations of the electron response to finite duration shear Alfven wave pulses in a magnetized plasma. In Earth's magnetosphere, the evidence suggests that parallel electric fields in inertial scale shear Alfven waves can accelerate electrons in the...

Self‐consistent wave‐particle interactions in dispersive scale long‐period field‐line‐resonances

Rankin, Robert, Samson, John C., Watt, Clare E. J.
Using 1D Vlasov drift-kinetic computer simulations, it is shown that electron trapping in long period standing shear Alfvén waves (SAWs) provides an efficient energy sink for wave energy that is much more effective than Landau damping. It is also suggested that the plasma environment of low...

Two flybys of Mercury by the NASA MESSENGER spacecraft on January 14 and October 6, 2008 provide insight into the spatial distribution of the heavy ion exosphere around the planet. The relatively quiet solar wind conditions and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation allow us to compare...

Containerized software systems are becoming more popular and complex as they are one of the essential techniques that enable cloud computing. One of the enabling technologies for containerized software systems is the Docker framework. Docker is an open-source framework for deploying containers,...

SSHRC Awarded IG 2013: Our project examines the reconfiguration of feminist activism in and for the 21st century through digital technologies. We do so in a case study of German "popfeminist" protest and performance art culture. The objective is to interrogate how the "Do it Yourself" (DIY)...

SSHRC Awarded IDG 2011: Artistic practices form an essential component of Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). While important scholarly contributions have already examined the political and social contexts of reconciliation and redress, our proposed project will be the first of...

The Impact of Police Duty Ensemble on the Cardiopulmonary Response to Exercise and Simulated Work Performance
DownloadSpring 2019
This study, conducted in two-parts, examined the impact of general duty police ensemble on the cardiopulmonary response to graded exercise and on simulated work performance in 25 healthy male and female subjects. Part I consisted of randomly ordered treadmill tests in two experimental conditions:...

The influence of morphological variation on migration performance in a trans-hemispheric migratory songbird
Download2015-01-01
Lam, Lawrence, McKinnon, Emily A., Ray, James D., Pearman, Myrna, Hvenegaard, Glen T., Mejeur, James, Moscar, Lauren, Pearson, Mackenzie, Applegate, Kelly, Mammenga, Paul, Tautin, John, Fraser, Kevin C.
For long-distance migratory songbirds, morphological traits such as longer wings and a smaller body size are predicted to increase migration efficiency. Due to previous limitations in our ability to track the long-distance journeys of small-bodied birds, the relationship between morphology and...

This article is an introduction to an issue of Canadian Theatre Review dedicated to the topic of commemoration. This issue was assembled in late summer and early autumn 2017 as the majority of “celebrations” of Canada’s sesquicentennial just concluded. Canada’s 150th anniversary has been...
