... We have observed and studied critical supercurrents, Ic, in cross-type Nb-Cu/Ni-Nb junctions with Josephson layers prepared from diluted ferromagnetic alloys. For suitable values of the exchange energy in the ferromagnet and the F-layer thickness we have observed Ic(T) oscillation with vanishing Ic for the definite values of T and dF. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the linear polarization of starlight due to extinction by aligned dust grains when the starlight traverses a medium with irregular magnetic fields. This medium is intended to represent the optically thick components of interstellar clouds which are observed to make little, if any, contribution to the polarization of starlight. ...

... Where we have just a single image we assume a probabilistic mode of source detection such that, at a given image pixel, if the probability that the observed value at that pixel could have arisen through statistical fluctuation of the background at that pixel lies below a certain limiting probability , the pixel is considered to contain a source. In XMM practice it is likelihood rather than itself which is employed; in this case the detection criterion is for to exceed the cutoff . ...
