  • Special Presentation by Wassim Jabi, Quentin Jones, Katia
    Special Presentation by Wassim Jabi, Quentin Jones, Katia Passerini, Cristian Borcea, and Theodore Hall, “Fostering Creativity in Ubiquitous Social Computing through Casual and Formal Interactions in Interdisciplinary Design Studios”, Tables 1 This project aims to foster "CreativeIT": using information technology to enhance creativity in design, and applying creative design processes employed in disciplines such as architecture to enhance information technology. One aspect of this project is an interactive touch-screen poster display that enables two-way communication between designers, other team members, and the general public. Poster authors prepare their presentations in the form of web pages and submit the URIs to the display manager. The URIs are placed in an XML poster database on a networked server. The display kiosk software updates its poster list from the XML file periodically, displays the posters in sequence, and places thumbnails in a selection area. Viewers can give feedback on any poster that interests them through graffiti-style interaction with the touch-sensitive display, and e-mail the marked-up poster back to the author. This free-form feedback is a vital part of the creative process. Ikemefuna Chukwuemeka Agbanusi, Senior Student in Mathematics, “Dissecting the Phase Response Curve of a Bursting Neuron”, (advised by Amitabha Bose, advisors Amitabha Bose, Farzan Nadim and Jorge Golowasch), Table 52 We define and analyze the Phase Response Curve (PRC) of an endogenous neuronal oscillator. The PRC measures how an oscillator responds to the timing of stimulus. We utilize a Morris-Leccar type model to reproduce some of the phenomena observed in laboratory experiments on the PD neuron in the Stomatogastric Ganglion of the crab, Cancer borealis.

    TRANSIT The Newsletter of 05 July2007 Analemma over Ukraine Front page image: If you took a picture of the Sun at the same time each day, would it remain in the same position? The answer is no, and the shape traced out by the Sun over the course of a year is called an analemma. The Sun's apparent shift is caused by the Earth's motion around the Sun when combined with the tilt of the Earth's rotation axis. The Sun will appear at its highest point of the analemma during summer and at its lowest during winter. Vasilij Rumyantsev ( Crimean Astrophysical Obsevatory) Editorial Last meeting: 8 June 2007 - Keith Johnson delivered a talk on "Astrophotography" whilst seated in front of his computer. He walked us through the technique of using the free Registax software in processing AVIs obtained with a simple and inexpensive Webcam. His choice of subjects to work with were fascinating, an occultation of Saturn by the Moon and a series of Saturn captures. When first seen by non-astroimagers the processing seems hyper- technical but with a good guide through the process by an enthusiast like Keith showed it can be easily learned and that the software itself is very intuitive. The final results always justify the efforts involved judging from Keith’s completed images. Next meeting : Friday, September 14, 2007 subject and presenter to be announced by the Secretary in his Summer Newsletter. Location, Wynyard Planetarium Letters to the Editor : From John Crowther :- We had a 24 page Transit last month completing our 2006-2007 season before the summer break.

  • Medicine and Astronomy in Cheshire
    1 Dr. Harold Whichello: medicine and astronomy in Cheshire Jeremy Shears and Theresa Hull Abstract Dr. Harold Whichello (1870-1945) was a Cheshire General Practitioner and an enthusiastic amateur astronomer. He joined the British Astronomical Association in 1898 and undertook observations for its Lunar, Solar and Variable Star Sections using a 6-inch Wray refractor. He also contributed lunar occultation predictions and comet ephemerides to its Computing Section. Introduction In 1907 Paul Henri Stroobant (1868-1936) of the Royal Observatory of Belgium (ROB) (1) published what was effectively the first global astronomical directory, “Les Observatoires Astronomiques et les Astronomes” (2) (Figure 1a). This listed some 260 astronomical observatories, institutes and societies, together with the names of about 1,500 astronomers. The names were gleaned by ROB staff members from astronomical journals as well as publications of observatories and societies. In an attempt to identify the most active amateur observers, Stroobant and his colleagues also contacted officers of astronomical societies, including the Liverpool and Manchester Astronomical Societies, as well as BAA Section Directors (3). For each observatory, the place name and principal observers or researchers were given, along with a description of the instruments used and chief areas of research, supplemented in some cases with a few historical notes. As one might expect, the list was graced by the names of world famous research institutions like the Royal Observatories at Greenwich and Edinburgh, the Meudon Observatory in France and the US Observatories at Harvard, Lick and Yerkes. A number of private individuals were also listed, including Camille Flammarion (1842-1925) of Juvisy in France, W.F.
