Rotation and the AdS-CFT correspondence

SW Hawking, CJ Hunter, MM Taylor-Robinson - Physical Review D, 1999 - APS
In asymptotically flat space a rotating black hole cannot be in thermodynamic equilibrium
because the thermal radiation would have to be corotating faster than light far from the black …

On the need to re‐conceptualise sustainable tourism development

CJ Hunter - Journal of sustainable tourism, 1995 - Taylor & Francis
<p>Recent years have witnessed the emergence of a dominant paradigm of sustainable
tourism development, one which appears to chart a responsible course, balancing the …

Nitrite infusion in humans and nonhuman primates: endocrine effects, pharmacokinetics, and tolerance formation

A Dejam, CJ Hunter, C Tremonti, RM Pluta, YY Hon… - Circulation, 2007 - Am Heart Assoc
Background— The recent discovery that nitrite is an intrinsic vasodilator and signaling molecule
at near-physiological concentrations has raised the possibility that nitrite contributes to …

[HTML][HTML] Dynamics of the Bending of the Galaxy

C Hunter, A Toomre - Astrophysical Journal, vol. 155, p. 747, 1969 - adsabs.harvard.edu
A mathematical theory describing infinitesimal bending oscillations and/or responses of very
thin, rotating disks of self-gravitating material is developed. This theory is applied in detail to …

Erythrocytes are the major intravascular storage sites of nitrite in human blood

A Dejam, CJ Hunter, MM Pelletier, LL Hsu… - Blood, 2005 - ashpublications.org
Plasma levels of nitrite ions have been used as an index of nitric oxide synthase (NOS)
activity in vivo. Recent data suggest that nitrite is a potential intravascular repository for nitric …

Cytomorphology of notochordal and chondrocytic cells from the nucleus pulposus: a species comparison

CJ Hunter, JR Matyas, NA Duncan - Journal of anatomy, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
The nuclei pulposi of the intervertebral discs (IVDs) contain a mixed population of cell types
at various stages of maturation. This tissue is formed either by or with the help of cells from …

The notochordal cell in the nucleus pulposus: a review in the context of tissue engineering

CJ Hunter, JR Matyas, NA Duncan - Tissue engineering, 2003 - liebertpub.com
An understanding of developmental biology can provide useful insights into how different
tissue-engineered repairs might be designed. During embryogenesis of the intervertebral disk, …

Inhaled nebulized nitrite is a hypoxia-sensitive NO-dependent selective pulmonary vasodilator

CJ Hunter, A Dejam, AB Blood, H Shields… - Nature medicine, 2004 - nature.com
The blood anion nitrite contributes to hypoxic vasodilation through a heme-based, nitric oxide
(NO)–generating reaction with deoxyhemoglobin and potentially other heme proteins 1 . …

[HTML][HTML] Understanding the susceptibility of the premature infant to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)

CJ Hunter, JS Upperman, HR Ford, V Camerini - Pediatric research, 2008 - nature.com
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common life-threatening gastrointestinal emergency
encountered in the neonatal intensive care unit. Despite advances in neonatal care, …

NUT charge, anti–de Sitter space, and entropy

SW Hawking, CJ Hunter, DN Page - Physical Review D, 1999 - APS
It has been proposed that spacetimes with a U (1) isometry group have contributions to the
entropy from Misner strings as well as from the area of d− 2 dimensional fixed point sets. In …
