Simultaneous ground and satellite observations of an isolated proton arc at subauroral latitudes
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2007)We observed an isolated proton arc at the Athabasca station MLAT: 62◦N) in Canada on 5 September, 2005, using a ground-based allsky imager at wavelengths of 557.7 nm, 630.0 nm, and 486.1 nm (Hβ). This arc is similar to ... -
Social Interaction in Self-paced Distance Education.
(Open Praxis, 2015)In this paper we present a case study of a self-paced university course that was originally designed to support independent, self-paced study at distance. We developed a social media intervention, in design-based research ... -

Space Physics: Aurora Borealis
(2007-08-13)Cluster data was used to examine the magnetospheric boundary and more particularly the tail. Harris sheet fits were done in a dynamic fashion that allows flapping to be quantified. -
STEP Forward 2007-2007 Space Science Enhancement Proposal to CSA
(2006-05-19)The most effective way to exploit Canada’s ideal position for auroral zone science is to emplace instruments with sufficient density for meaningful studies. Magnetometers are useful instruments for this since their cost ... -
Strategies of subcellular fractionation suitable for analysis of peroxisomes and microperoxisomes of animal tissues.
(International Journal of Biochemistry, 1983)Strategies of subcellular fractionation are reviewed from the perspective of their utility in the analysis of peroxisomes. The considerable potential inherant in the method of rate dependent banding In zonal rotors is ... -
Student and Faculty Outcomes of Undergraduate Science Research Projects by Geographically Dispersed Students
(International Review of Research in Open and Distance Education, 2013-12)Senior undergraduate research projects are important components of most undergraduate science degrees. The delivery of such projects in a distance education format is challenging. Athabasca University (AU) science project ... -
Subcellular localization of monoglyceride acyltransferase, xanthine oxidation, NADP: isocitrate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase in the mucosa of the guinea-pig small intestine.
(Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1980)1. Rate dependent and isopycnic banding in a zonal rotor were used to analyse the subcellular sites of enzymes in homogenates of guinea-pig small intestinal mucosa. 2, The results demonstrate the following localizations: ... -
Survey of nutrition knowledge of Canadian physicians
(Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 1999)Objectives: Previous reports have indicated that physicians generally have little training in nutrition and a poor knowledge of the subject. A survey was carried out to determine the nutrition knowledge of physicians working ... -

A Survey of Orbits of Co-orbitals of Jupiter
(2006-06-29)Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids fulfill the prediction of Lagrange that orbits can be stable when a small body orbits in specific locations relative to its ‘parent’ planet and the Sun. The first such Trojan asteroid was discovered ... -

(2006-05-25)Co- Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids fulfill the prediction of Lagrange that orbits can be stable when a small body orbits in specific locations relative to its ‘parent’ planet and the Sun. The first such Trojan was discovered ... -
Synthesis and structure of [[Cu2(6,6’-bis(2-(2pyridyl)ethylminomethyl)-2,2’-bipyridine)2][PF6]2
(Acta Crystallographica Section E, Crystal Structure Communications, 2006-10-12)In the structure of the title compound, [Cu2(C26H24N6)2]- (PF6)2, the Cu atoms of the cation are located on a twofold axis, and adopt a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. The terminal 2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl groups ... -
