  • 4MOST : Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals
  • 2019

    • We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) at Paranal. Its key specifications are: a large field of view (FoV) of 4.2 square degrees and a high multiplex capability, with 1624 fibres feeding two low-resolution spectrographs (R = λ/Δλ ~ 6500), and 812 fibres transferring light to the high-resolution spectrograph (R ~ 20 000). After a description of the instrument and its expected performance, a short overview is given of its operational scheme and planned 4MOST Consortium science; these aspects are covered in more detail in other articles in this edition of The Messenger. Finally, the processes, schedules, and policies concerning the selection of ESO Community Surveys are presented, commencing with a singular opportunity to submit Letters of Intent for Public Surveys during the first five years of 4MOST operations.

  • Travel burden and clinical presentation of retinoblastoma: analysis of 1024 patients from 43 African countries and 518 patients from 40 European countries
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: The British journal of ophthalmology. - : BMJ. - 1468-2079 .- 0007-1161. ; 105:10, s. 1435-1443
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The travel distance from home to a treatment centre, which may impact the stage at diagnosis, has not been investigated for retinoblastoma, the most common childhood eye cancer. We aimed to investigate the travel burden and its impact on clinical presentation in a large sample of patients with retinoblastoma from Africa and Europe.MethodsA cross-sectional analysis including 518 treatment-naïve patients with retinoblastoma residing in 40 European countries and 1024 treatment-naïve patients with retinoblastoma residing in 43 African countries.ResultsCapture rate was 42.2% of expected patients from Africa and 108.8% from Europe. African patients were older (95% CI −12.4 to −5.4, p<0.001), had fewer cases of familial retinoblastoma (95% CI 2.0 to 5.3, p<0.001) and presented with more advanced disease (95% CI 6.0 to 9.8, p<0.001); 43.4% and 15.4% of Africans had extraocular retinoblastoma and distant metastasis at the time of diagnosis, respectively, compared to 2.9% and 1.0% of the Europeans. To reach a retinoblastoma centre, European patients travelled 421.8 km compared to Africans who travelled 185.7 km (p<0.001). On regression analysis, lower-national income level, African residence and older age (p<0.001), but not travel distance (p=0.19), were risk factors for advanced disease.ConclusionsFewer than half the expected number of patients with retinoblastoma presented to African referral centres in 2017, suggesting poor awareness or other barriers to access. Despite the relatively shorter distance travelled by African patients, they presented with later-stage disease. Health education about retinoblastoma is needed for carers and health workers in Africa in order to increase capture rate and promote early referral.

  • Hybrid Time/Frequency Domain Identification of Real Base-Isolated Structure
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Conference Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Mechanics Series. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 2191-5644 .- 2191-5652. - 9783319297514 ; 2, s. 303-311
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This paper presents a case study using hybrid time-and frequency-domain identifications in a synergistic manner to develop models of a full-scale experimental base-isolated structure. This four-story reinforced-concrete building on an isolation layer (of rubber bearings, elastic sliding bearings, passive metallic yielding dampers, and controllable oil dampers) was designed and constructed at the large-scale Japanese NIED E-Defense earthquake engineering laboratory. A variety of sensors, including accelerometers, were mounted within the structure to measure building response to shake table excitations. While the building was ultimately subjected to historical and synthetic ground motions, the recorded table and building accelerations during a number of random excitation tests are used to identify the structure's natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes. The substantial damping provided by the isolation layer necessitates adopting a hybrid time-and frequency-domain approach for identification. The modes of the structure are separated by frequency content wherein lower frequency modes are identified using time domain approaches from the subspace identification family of methods and higher frequency modes are identified using frequency response functions. Individually, neither approach is able to successfully identify all of the desired modes but, through their combination, the modal properties of the structure are successfully characterized.
