Running economy (RE) is the amount of oxygen utilized (ml.kg⁻¹min⁻¹) when
running a fixed speed, and it has been demonstrated to be an important factor
determining race performance in distance runners. There is evidence that running
economy and/or maximal oxygen consumption (VO₂max) improves over the course
of a training season...
A method for bandgap energy determination using di use re ection is presented and compared to the traditional integrating sphere method. We have found the bandgap energies of ZnO, TiO₂, Cu₂O, Si, SnZrS₃, SnZrSe₃, Sn₂S₃, and BiCuOSe powders with both methods and found they agree within 0.03 eV. We have...
