Regionalverkehr Bern-Solothurn
Regionalverkehr Bern-Solothurn RBS () is a Switzerland, Swiss public transport company. It operates train, tram, and bus lines between Bern, Solothurn and Worb. History There had been a desire for a direct connection between Solothurn and Bern since the middle of the nineteenth century, only partly satisfied by the opening of a standard gauge line between Solothurn and Burgdorf by the ''Emmental-Burgdorf-Thun Bahn, Emmentalbahn'' in 1876. A campaign for a line via Fraubrunnen finally resulted in a concession granted in 1912 for the ''Elektrische Solothurn-Bern-Bahn (ESB)'' to build a metre-gauge line between Solothurn and Zollikofen. Here it would connect with the ''Bern-Zollikofen-Bahn'', which had been opened in the same year. The full line was opened on 9 April 1916, but for the first eight years, passengers were obliged to change trains in Zollikofen. Public pressure led to the fusion of the two lines into the ''Solothurn-Zollikofen-Bahn (SZB)'' in 1922. The town of Worb ha ...

Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry
Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is an analytical technique used in materials science. Sometimes referred to as high-energy ion scattering (HEIS) spectrometry, RBS is used to determine the structure and composition of materials by measuring the backscattering of a beam of high energy ions (typically protons or alpha particles) impinging on a sample. Geiger–Marsden experiment Rutherford backscattering spectrometry is named after Lord Rutherford, a physicist sometimes referred to as the father of nuclear physics. Rutherford supervised a series of experiments carried out by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden between 1909 and 1914 studying the scattering of alpha particles through metal foils. While attempting to eliminate "stray particles" they believed to be caused by an imperfection in their alpha source, Rutherford suggested that Marsden attempt to measure backscattering from a gold foil sample. According to the then-dominant plum-pudding model of the atom, in w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Roberts Syndrome
Roberts syndrome, or sometimes called pseudothalidomide syndrome, is an extremely rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder that is characterized by mild to severe prenatal retardation or disruption of cell division, leading to malformation of the bones in the skull, face, arms, and legs. It is caused by a mutation in the ESCO2 gene. It is one of the rarest autosomal recessive disorders, affecting approximately 150 known individuals. The mutation causes cell division to occur slowly or unevenly, and the cells with abnormal genetic content die. Roberts syndrome can affect both males and females. Although the disorder is rare, the affected group is diverse. The mortality rate is high in severely affected individuals. The syndrome is named after American surgeon and physician John Bingham Roberts (1852–1924), who first described it in 1919. Symptoms and signs The following is a list of symptoms that have been associated with Roberts syndrome: * Bilateral symmetric tetraphocomeli ...

Risk Breakdown Structure
A Risk Breakdown Structure (RBS) within risk management is a hierarchically organised depiction of the identified project risks arranged by category. An Introduction to the Risk Breakdown Structure When planning a project to meet targets for cost, schedule, or quality, it is useful to identify likely risks to the success of the project. A risk is any possible situation that is not planned for, but that, if it occurs, is likely to divert the project from its planned result. For example, an established project team plans for the work to be done by its staff, but there is the risk that an employee may unexpectedly leave the team. In Project Management, the ''Risk Management Process'' has the objectives of identifying, assessing, and managing risks, both positive and negative. All too often, project managers focus only on negative risk, however, good things can happen in a project, "things" that were foreseen, but not expressly planned. The objective of Risk Management is to predi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
