TL;DR: In this article, a comparison study for a set of benchmark problems which are relevant for convection in the Earth's mantle is carried out, which includes steady isoviscous convection, variable viscosity convection and time-dependent convection with internal heating.
Abstract: Summary
We have carried out a comparison study for a set of benchmark problems which are relevant for convection in the Earth's mantle The cases comprise steady isoviscous convection, variable viscosity convection and time-dependent convection with internal heating We compare Nusselt numbers, velocity, temperature, heat-flow, topography and geoid data Among the applied codes are finite-difference, finite-element and spectral methods In a synthesis we give best estimates of the ‘true’ solutions and ranges of uncertainty We recommend these data for the validation of convection codes in the future

TL;DR: Three sets of findings were consistent with the view that friendship provides protection against victimization, and a hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that a decrease in conflict and betrayal reported to characterize the participants' best friendship was associated with falls in victimization.

TL;DR: There is large variation in MIC values by the same method across studies and across different methods within studies, and it is unlikely that this variation can be explained by differences between disease groups, disease severity, or lengths of follow-up.

TL;DR: Either WASP-18 is in a rare, exceptionally short-lived state, or the tidal dissipation in this system (and possibly other hot-Jupiter systems) must be much weaker than in the Solar System.
Abstract: The 'hot Jupiters' that abound in lists of known extrasolar planets are thought to have formed far from their host stars, but migrate inwards through interactions with the proto-planetary disk from which they were born, or by an alternative mechanism such as planet-planet scattering. The hot Jupiters closest to their parent stars, at orbital distances of only approximately 0.02 astronomical units, have strong tidal interactions, and systems such as OGLE-TR-56 have been suggested as tests of tidal dissipation theory. Here we report the discovery of planet WASP-18b with an orbital period of 0.94 days and a mass of ten Jupiter masses (10 M(Jup)), resulting in a tidal interaction an order of magnitude stronger than that of planet OGLE-TR-56b. Under the assumption that the tidal-dissipation parameter Q of the host star is of the order of 10(6), as measured for Solar System bodies and binary stars and as often applied to extrasolar planets, WASP-18b will be spiralling inwards on a timescale less than a thousandth that of the lifetime of its host star. Therefore either WASP-18 is in a rare, exceptionally short-lived state, or the tidal dissipation in this system (and possibly other hot-Jupiter systems) must be much weaker than in the Solar System.
