It appeared in Talk of the Town courtesy of a man named A. J. Carson, who wrote to The New Yorker to say that he had seen "the biggest valentine made in town": He was gazing out of a window of his office, on the thirty-fifth floor of the building at 10 East Fortieth Street, admiring the great smooth fall of snow that lay on Bryant Park.
The smooth fall off of the predicted flux with height above the bed is due to the consideration of separate particle elements which have different initial conditions at different points around the nose of the bubble.
It's kind of implied in that there's a pretty smooth fall-off from the higher frequencies, so you can work out what it should sound like, and I didn't notice any distortion from the speakers trying to hit lower than they should.
Two alternative accounts deserve some speculation: One draws on gradient models of attention to suggest that cueing advantages pertain only to the region of external space close to the cue (e.g., Downing & Pinker, 1985; LaBerge & Brown, 1989), with a peak of advantage at the cued location, and a smooth fall-off, or gradient, into the surrounding space.
(Ai – Di ) Stereotyped OSN responses to light ramps starting with a common 8-s exponential rise: ramp with a smooth exponential fall ('volcano', see panel A ), ramp with an abrupt fall to basal intensity ('well', see panel B ), ramp with a prolongation of the maximum intensity ('mesa', see panel C ), and ramp with a linear increase ('linear', see panel D ).
The noise trace was then subtracted from the aligned singles to eliminate the coherent-noise effect and produce a smooth average falling phase.
You may have gathered that "In Real Life," which is directed by the ever-smooth Daniel Sullivan, falls squarely into a much beloved tradition in theater lore: the tale of a wide-eyed but ambitious creature who hits the big city fresh from the provinces (in this case Albany) with a headful of dreams and a conquering dewiness.
A fishery was defined as "collapsed or closed" when smoothed catch fell below 10% of peak catch.
Similarly, burst-termination was defined as the time at which the smoothed waveform fell from the peak by 90% of the vertical distance to the next trough.
This type of show falls into the general categories of cobwebby and creaky ("The Bat," "Night Must Fall"); smooth and well-oiled ("Deathtrap," "Sleuth"); and the sure-to-be-a-movie-someday suspenser ("Wait Until Dark").
