The MeerKAT Radio Frequency Interference Environment by Sihlangu, Isaac

“…Therefore, the phase of the RFI changes rapidly on long baselines compared to short baselines. As a result when a correlation is carried out the RFI amplitude will vanish less on short baselines compared to the long baselines. …”

Racial integration : a social intervention on a South African university campus by Kim, Caroline

“…Gordon Allport's contact theory has given rise to the widely accepted proposition that contact improves intergroup attitudes, with stronger effects in settings that reflect optimal conditions of contact. Investigators have long been interested in the effects of contact in South Africa where, until twenty years ago, intergroup contact had been formally restricted. …”
