Alternatively, 5 ml from a neutron star of radius 20 km radius ( average density ) has a mass of about 400 million metric tons, or about the mass of all humans .</ ref > The resulting force of gravity is so strong that if an object were to fall from a height of one meter it would only take one microsecond to hit the surface of the neutron star, and would do so at around 2000 kilometers per second, or 7. 2 million kilometers per hour.

Alternatively, on the other side of the Apennines, highway 7 ( the old Roman Appian Way ) followed along the west coast but south of Rome ran into the Pontine Marshes which the Germans had flooded.

Alternatively Black can meet 6. d4 with 6 ... exd4, when White can try 7. Qb3, a move often favoured by Nigel Short.

Alternatively 7 ... d6 8. cxd4 Bb6 is known as the Normal Position, in which Black is content to settle for a one-pawn advantage and White seeks compensation in the form of open lines and a strong centre.

Alternatively, after 6. h3, Black can retreat the bishop with 6 ... Bh5 7. g4 Bg6 8. Ne5, a line which often transposes to the Gunderam Defence line 5 ... Bf5 6. Ne5 e6 7. g4 Bg6 after a subsequent h3 – h4, as White's extra tempo with h3 is not particularly useful.

Alternatively 7 ... Nc6 can be considered the main line of this variation, when 8. 0-0 Nxd4 9. Kh1 is the notorious Zilbermints Gambit, sacrificing a second pawn in order to increase White's initiative.

Alternatively, 5. g4 aims to regain the pawn in most cases, e. g. after 5 ... Bg6 6. g5 Nd5 7. Nxe4 Nc6 8. Bb5 e6 9. Bxc6 + bxc6 10. Ne2 c5 11. dxc5 Nb4, when in a reversal of roles, White has an extra pawn but Black has the initiative and a superior pawn structure.

Alternatively, one of the cost-saving measures recommended by TTC Staff was to reduce service on 48 bus routes, to save $ 7 million.

Alternatively, a jury who feels antipathy towards an accused might convict despite a law which points to acquittal.

Alternatively, games keep the amount of experience points per level constant, but progressively lower the experience gained for the same tasks as the character's level increases.

Alternatively, if the space X is sequential, we may say that x ∈ X is a limit point of S if and only if there is an ω-sequence of points in S

Alternatively, the parameter c can be interpreted by saying that the two inflection points of the function occur at x = b − c and x = b + c.

Alternatively, libertarian view points based upon indeterminism have been proposed without the assumption of naturalism.

Alternatively, that the corresponding map T < sup > 2 </ sup >→ S < sup > 2 </ sup > from the torus T < sup > 2 </ sup > to the sphere S < sup > 2 </ sup > ( given by the point with given azimuth and elevation ) is not a covering map at these points.

Alternatively the BRC ( Big Remote Control ) could be used, which included many more features which the stand alone ADAT did not have, such as song naming, more locate points and MIDI Time Code synchronisation.

Alternatively, a judge may grant requests for argument in a preargument order which specifies what points will be discussed prior to a decision.

Alternatively, a variant scoring system determines the winner via a point system — 1 point for a knock out, 2 points for a propaganda knock out, 3 points for a retaliation knock out, a variable number of points for position depending on number of players, and finally 2 points for surviving ( with the survivor not necessarily being the points winner ).

Alternatively, two car parking areas on the east shore offer perfect, albeit sometimes busy, canoe launching points.

Alternatively, fluids can be used that have boiling points above water, and this may have thermodynamic benefits.

Alternatively, the plane can also be given a metric which gives it constant negative curvature giving the hyperbolic plane.

where the integral is over a path starting at the point at infinity with argument -( 1 / 3 ) π and ending at the point at infinity with argument ( 1 / 3 ) π. Alternatively, we can use the differential equation to extend Ai ( x ) and Bi ( x ) to entire functions on the complex plane.

Alternatively, this can be seen from considering the link diagram: if one assumes that circles 1 and 2 touch at their two crossing points, then they either lie in a plane or a sphere.

Alternatively, and more importantly, is the number of poles of the closed loop system in the right half plane.

Alternatively, conspiracy theories may arise when evidence available in the public record does not correspond with the common or official version of events.

Alternatively, a single hostname may correspond to many IP addresses: this can facilitate fault tolerance and load distribution, and also allows a site to move physical locations seamlessly.

Alternatively, a definition based on spectral type can be used, such as F8 V through K2 V, which would correspond to B-V color of 0. 50 to 1. 00.

Alternatively, it is possible to express an even-length real-input DFT as a complex DFT of half the length ( whose real and imaginary parts are the even / odd elements of the original real data ), followed by O ( N ) post-processing operations.

Alternatively, when a self-balancing binary search tree is used, insertion and removal also take O ( log n ) time, although building trees from existing sequences of elements takes O ( n log n ) time ; this is typical where one might already have access to these data structures, such as with third-party or standard libraries.

Alternatively, the transistor can be used to turn current on or off in a circuit as an electrically controlled switch, where the amount of current is determined by other circuit elements.

Alternatively, linear independence can be directly defined as follows: a set of vectors is linearly independent if and only if the only representations of the zero vector as linear combinations of its elements are trivial solutions, i. e., whenever a < sub > 1 </ sub >, a < sub > 2 </ sub >, ..., a < sub > n </ sub > are scalars such that

Alternatively it may derive from three Norse elements: alda ( swelling wave, roller ), renna ( strong current, race ) and oy or ey ( island ).

Alternatively the composite elements were carved into mythic creatures such as the Egyptian, Greek and Babylonian sphinxes of antiquity depicting bull-like bodies with birds-wings, lion ’ s paws and human faces.

Alternatively one could use visualisation, seeing in one's mind's eye an image that includes two elements in the list that are next to each other.

Alternatively, radioactive elements can be used as labels, and the immunoreaction can be visualized by autoradiography.

Alternatively, John Milne's proposed etymology of Àrd-thir Suidhe meaning " place on high ground " uncomfortably requires the transposition of the name elements.

Alternatively, the patron clan may have added elements of its mon to that of its retainer, or choose a completely different mon for them.

Alternatively, a more systematic classification results when distinguishing tabletop games according to the elements of chance involved.

Alternatively, the lens adapters would include optical elements and act as weak teleconverters, as well as possibly losing optical quality.

Alternatively, high carbon FeCr produced from high grade ore found in Kazakhstan ( among other places ) is more commonly used in specialist applications such as engineering steels where a high Cr to Fe ratio and minimum levels of other elements such as sulfur, phosphorus and titanium are important and production of finished metals takes place in small electric arc furnaces compared to large scale blast furnaces.

Alternatively, some research systems have used only a pair of antenna elements and the phase-difference of arrival to calculate the direction of arrival of the echoes ( known as phase interferometry and similar in concept to Very Long Baseline Interferometry used in astronomy ).

Alternatively, a 35 MeV Cl ( or 50 MeV I ) beam is often used with a time-of-flight detector: this is good for light elements ( or transition metals ) in silicon.
