Massive three loop form factor in the planar limit

We present the color planar and complete light quark QCD contributions to the three loop heavy quark form factors in the case of vector, axial-vector, scalar and pseudo-scalar currents. We eval- uate the master integrals applying a new method based on differential equations for general bases, which is applicable for any first order factorizing systems. The analytic results are expressed in terms of harmonic polylogarithms and real-valued cyclotomic harmonic polylogarithms.
Radiation damage from long-term alpha particle bombardment of silicates – a microfocus XRD and Fe K-edge XANES study

Abstract A detailed understanding of the response of mineral phases to the radiation fields experienced in a geological disposal facility (GDF) is currently poorly constrained. Prolongued ion irradiation has the potential to affect both the physical integrity and oxidation state of materials and therefore may alter a structure's ability to react with radionuclides. Radiohalos (spheres of radiation damage in minerals surrounding radioactive (α-emitting) inclusions) provide useful analogues for studying long term α-particle damage accumulation. In this study, silicate minerals adjacent to Th- and U-rich monazite and zircon were probed for redox changes and long/short range disorder using microfocus X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and high resolution X-ray diffraction (XRD) at Beamline I18, Diamond Light Source. Fe3+ → Fe2+ reduction has been demonstrated in an amphibole sample containing structural OH- groups - a trend not observed in anhydrous phases such as garnet. Coincident with the findings of Pattrick et al. (2013), the radiolytic breakdown of OH - groups is postulated to liberate Fe3+ reducing electrons. Across all samples, high point defect densities and minor lattice aberrations are apparent adjacent to the radioactive inclusion, demonstrated by micro-XRD.
PYROLYSIS KINETICS OF NORTH-KOREAN OIL SHALE

In this paper, the kinetics of pyrolysis of North-Korean oil shale was investigated. Fischer Assay analysis showed that the oil yield of oil shale sample was 12.14 wt%. Thermogravimetry was applied to the analysis of pyrolysis of oil shale at the heating rates of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 °C/min. The kinetic parameters (apparent activation energy E and frequency factor A) were determined by the Friedman procedure, maximum pyrolysis rate method and parallel reactions model, respectively. Based on the Friedman procedure the values of apparent activation energy E were found to range from 209 kJ/mol to 359 kJ/mol and frequency factor A from 6.32 × 10 to 1.99 × 10·min. It was shown by the maximum pyrolysis rate method that E and A were respectively 191.52 kJ/mol and 1.51 × 10·min. As determined by the parallel reactions model, the values of apparent activation energy were mainly between 130 kJ/mol and 240 kJ/mol. The plot of ln A vs E for oil shale pyrolysis was a straight line.
The Bekenstein Bound

Bekenstein's conjectured entropy bound for a system of linear size $R$ and energy $E$, namely $S \leq 2 \pi E R$, has counterexamples for many of the ways in which the "system," $R$, $E$, and $S$ may be defined. One consistent set of definitions for these quantities in flat Minkowski spacetime is that $S$ is the total von Neumann entropy and $E$ is the expectation value of the energy in a "vacuum-outside-$R$" quantum state that has the the vacuum expectation values for all operators entirely outside a sphere of radius $R$. However, there are counterexamples to the Bekenstein bound for this set of definitions. Nevertheless, an alternative formulation ten years ago by Horacio Casini for the definitions of $S$ and of $2 \pi E R$ have finally enabled a proof for this particular formulation of the Bekenstein bound.
First Results from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph: Optical Spectra of Gliese 229B

We report the first Hubble Space Telescope Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) CCD spectroscopy of the bona fide brown dwarf Gliese 229B. The optical spectrum shows absorptions of Cs I at 8944 Å and water vapor bands at 9300-9600 Å. Strong CaH, FeH, TiO, and VO bands observed in late M dwarfs are absent from the spectrum of Gliese 229B. The formation of dust grains may explain the absence of strong atomic lines and molecular bands of these refractory elements. The broad spectral coverage obtained helps resolve current speculations about the presence of dust clouds in the atmosphere of cool brown dwarfs. We find the slope of the STIS/CCD spectrum and the lack of flux detected shortward of 8000 Å strongly supports the presence of dust hazes suspended in the photosphere of Gl 229B rather than a complete settling of the grains to regions below the photosphere.
Corporate diversification and board composition in Japanese electronics corporations

I consider the strategic implications of corporate governance by examining the relationship between diversification and board composition, considering both agency theory and the resource-based view of the firm. Many Japanese electronics companies have performed sluggishly and instituted major governance and management reforms. The strategic choice between focus and diversification is the foremost issue for Japanese firms aiming to improve their performance. This study uses a multivariate regression model with data from 217 Japanese electronics corporations for the fiscal year 2013 to examine the impact of board composition on decisions regarding corporate diversification. I find that corporate boards encourage corporations to pursue value-generating activities. I also argue that corporate boards can evaluate the quality of resources and allocate rents inside companies, as boards encourage firms to make use of idiosyncratic resources.
Design of a Context Privacy Service for Mobile Collaboration

Privacy related to context information is becoming an increasingly important issue due to the wide range of new applications using computational, location and personal context information. In this article, we propose a privacy service, called Context Privacy Service (CoPS), to control how, when and to whom disclose a user’s context information. In order to identify the end-user privacy concerns, we carried out a survey where we asked approximately 100 people about their willingness to use context-aware services and to disclose their context information. Based on the results of this survey and experience reported by other research groups, we identified the main service requirements and designed CoPS aiming flexibility, generality, simplicity and fine-grained privacy control. CoPS is supposed to aid the end-user to define and manage his privacy policies regarding his context information.
Effect of FYM, N, P Fertilizers and Biofertilizers on Germination and Growth of Paddy (Oryza sativa L.)

Biofertilizers are becoming increasingly popular in many countries and for many crops, but very few studies on their effect on growth in seedling stage have been conducted in rice. The experiments were conducted under laboratory conditions due to organic manure, fertilizers and bio fertilizers were observed in all experiments. The treatments such as organic manure, chemical fertilizers and Biofertilizers alone and in combination were applied. The growth parameters viz. germination percentage, root length, shoot length, fresh weight and dry weight were measured. Similarly the pigment contents such as chlorophyll-a, b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid were also measured at seventh day after sowing. All the parameters were higher in combined application of Biofertilizers than in single application and other treatments including control.
Total dose-induced charge buildup in nitrided-oxide MOS devices

Nitrided oxides and reoxidized nitrided oxides processed at various nitridation temperatures for various nitridation times have been irradiated. The total dose response of these nitrided oxides has been analyzed and compared to that of radiation-hard control oxides. To aid in the analysis, the charge-trapping model of R.J. Krantz et al. (1987) has been extended to include electron trapping and qualitatively applied to simulate the experimental results. Nitridation temperature was found to have a significant effect on the radiation response of thin ( approximately 150 AA) nitrided oxides and reoxidized nitrided oxides. The data show that oxides nitrided at 1050 degrees C and reoxidized accumulate less fixed charge (by a factor of approximately 2) than the control oxides. Oxides nitrided at 950 degrees C and reoxidized accumulate substantially more fixed charge (by a factor of approximately 5) than the controls or any of the nitrided samples. The analysis indicates that nitridation creates neutral hole traps as well as neutral electron traps, and that reoxidation can decrease the concentration of hole and electron traps. >
The Dynamics of Terminology: A descriptive theory of term formation and terminological growth

The discovery of rules for the systematicity and dynamics of terminology creations is essential for a sound basis of a theory of terminology. This quest provides the driving force for The Dynamics of Terminology in which Dr. Kageura demonstrates the interaction of these two factors on a specific corpus of Japanese terminology which, beyond the necessary linguistic circumstances, also has a model character for similar studies. His detailed examination of the relationships between terms and their constituent elements, the relationships among the constituent elements and the type of conceptual combinations used in the construction of the terminology permits deep insights into the systematic thought processes underlying term creation. To compensate for the inherent limitation of a purely descriptive analysis of conceptual patterns, Dr. Kageura offers a quantitative analysis of the patterns of the growth of terminology. His fascinating and unique contribution to our understanding of the terminological process reveals the powerful interaction of linguistic possibilities and the naming process of conceptual entities.
Study of Radio over Fiber with Different Coding Channel – A Review

The full form of RoF is Radio over Frequency technology. Present generation is the era of the network. Thus, the entire information interchanges over the network and the data traffic may occur on the network due to excessive data being transferred. Radio over Frequency is a technique that offers access to the bandwidth of channel. Hence, it is utilized to regulate traffic over the network in the condition of wireless networks. In this paper, mainly attention on communication channels such as ophthalmic wireless communication (OWC) and free space optics (FSO). Multiple encoding formats such as NRZ, CS-RZ, DRZ, and MDRZ are also discussed in this paper to transmit information along with modulation signals
Suitability of Reusability for a Lunar Re-Supply System

Moon landers built in the past were designed and optimized for specific missions, with a limited consideration of follow-on missions. They were expendable and based on storable hypergolic propellants. In order to enable a sustainable presence on the Moon for research but also other activities, a new type of transportation architecture is needed. Technical developments since the 1960s open a large range of new solutions which could be beneficial for a lunar transportation. The ROBEX (Robotic Exploration under Extreme Conditions) project, in particular, is focusing on new types of lunar architectures, for which modularity, re-configurability and flexibility should play a central role to guarantee the sustainability of the design. In this framework a reusable lunar single stage to orbit vehicle called RLRV (Reusable Lunar Resupply Vehicle) has been designed. It is able to land payloads on the Moon and to launch payloads from the lunar surface in anticipation of their return back to Earth. The RLRV is characterized by a design relying on the combination of cryogenic propulsion, in-situ propellant production and reusability. Important technologies that are enabling such a design have been identified to refine the RLRV design. The flexibility of the vehicle has been demonstrated with the assessment of its performance for a whole range of missions. The comparison of the RLRV with a classic lander such as the descent module of the Apollo Lunar Lander demonstrates that a large reduction of the payload to be injected by an Earth launch vehicle and an Earth departure stage can be achieved with the proposed design.
Validation of the present day annual cycle in heavy precipitation over the British Islands simulated by 14 RCMs

[1] The representation of the annual cycle of heavy daily precipitation events across the United Kingdom within 14 regional climate models (RCMs) and the European observation data set (E-OBS) over the 1961–2000 period is investigated. We model extreme precipitation as an inhomogeneous Poisson process with a non-stationary threshold and use a sinusoidal model for the location and scale parameter of the corresponding generalized extreme value distribution and a constant shape parameter. First we fit the statistical model to the UK Met Office 5 km gridded precipitation data set (UKMO). Second the statistical model is fitted to 14 reanalysis driven 25 km resolution RCMs from the ENSEMBLES project and to E-OBS. The resulting characteristics from the RCMs and from E-OBS are compared with those from UKMO. We study the peak time of the annual cycle of the monthly return levels, the relative amplitude of their annual cycle and the relative bias of their absolute values. We show that the performance of the RCMs depends strongly on the region. The RCMs show deficits in modeling the characteristics of the annual cycle, especially in modeling its relative amplitude and mainly in Eastern England. However the peak time of the annual cycle is adequately simulated by most RCMs. E-OBS exhibits considerable biases in the absolute values of all monthly return levels, but the relative amplitude and the phase of the annual cycle of heavy precipitation are well represented. Our results imply that studies which rely on the explicit annual cycle of simulated heavy precipitation should be carefully considered.
Screening for symbiotically effective and ecologically competitive chickpea rhizobial inoculants from Ethiopian soils

Chickpea is one the most important pulse crops grown for food and crop rotation in order to improve soil fertility because it fixes atmospheric nitrogen with root nodule bacteria. However, effectiveness in nitrogen fixation depends upon the host variety, the efficient endosymbiont and environmental conditions. This study was initiated to isolate and characterize chickpea rhizobia for their symbiotic effectiveness adapted to local environmental conditions. A total of seventy root nodule bacteria were isolated from different sampling sites in central and northern Ethiopia of which only 52% were rhizobia and the remaining were endophytes and non-nodulating rhizobia. All but two of the isolates were fast growers with generation time ( 8.0), high salt (4-6%) and medium temperature (20-30°C), and were sensitive to low pH (pH 4-4.5) and high temperature (40-45°C). Most isolates were resistant to several antibiotics and heavy metals, but relatively sensitive to chloramphenicol, tetracycline (51%). Of the tested antibiotics and heavy metals, streptomycin sulfate and mercury were found to be the most potent against the isolates. The symbiotic effectiveness test showed that only 20% of the isolates were able to increase the shoot dry mass as much as 50-100%. Of the nitrogen-fertilized control plants, two isolates (isolates NSCPR13 and NSCPR14) were highly effective (80%-100%). Based on their symbiotic effectiveness and wide physiological diversity and tolerance, the two best isolates; NSCPR13 and NSCPR24 could be tested in the field as future candidates for commercial inoculation. Key words/phrases : Antibiotic resistance, Eco-physiological diversity, Heavy metal resistance.
Impact of Laissez-Faire Leadership on Role Ambiguity and Role Conflict: Implications for Job Performance

The paper explores the ways to achieve superior job performance and cooperation among employees. The conceptual review suggests that leadership styles have an influence on role conflict and role ambiguity, which in turn impact job performance and cooperation. A questionnaire survey was prepared and conducted on the sample of Saudi Arabia companies’ employees. The data was analysed using SPSS. The quantitative analysis consisted of descriptive statistics calculation, assumption testing, correlation analysis and regression analysis. The findings of the research suggest that role conflict and role ambiguity have a negative influence on increasing job performance. Another finding of the paper shows that increasing job performance positively impacts on job cooperation. Laissez-faire leadership impact on role ambiguity and role conflict is not significant. The findings of the research can be useful for the managers and leaders in terms of explaining the nature of role stressors and how they should be dealt with to increase the productivity of employees. The research paper builds on the theory of leadership and contributes to the leadership-performance body of work.
Endoscopy evidence; H. Pylori infection Ozonetherapy treated, Mexican cases report

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection leads to chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma. Is a worldwide spread infection, is been estimated that affects nearly half of world´s population; gold standard method for diagnosed is gastric tissue biopsy obtained during endoscopy. Proton bomb inhibitor, antimicrobial treatment in a double or triple scheme are the election treatments, however is been reported high antimicrobial resistance making complicated treat H. pylori infection. We propose 90 days ozonetherapy protocol which consist of parenteral ozonated saline solution treatment and oral intake of 1 mL ozonated olive oil (600 meqO2) BIOZON ® as unique treatment scheme to eradicate H. pylori infection. In our private medical office were admitted 21 patients (10 males, 11 females) with chronical dyspeptic symptoms, endoscopic study was ordering to verify H. pylori infection and initiate ozonetherapy treatment. Patients were cited every 15 days for parenteral ozonated saline solution treatment and gave them full treatment for ozonated olive oil (600 meqO2) BIOZON ®. Our results after finished protocol presented positives results on decreased dyspeptic symptoms (18 cases), remaining just casual burping-up and the negative endoscopic results of 66% of the ozone treated patients. We performed a short study who represent only an estimation of the positive role of ozonetherapy in H. pylori infection. Nonetheless it takes further investigation and large epidemiological studies to propose these protocol as only effective H. pylori treatment
Multilocus Sequence Analysis of Fusarium Poae

SUMMARY Emerging prevalence of F. poae in fungal biota of small-grain cereals has been documented in many diverse geographic areas. We studied the phylogenetic relationships among 40 F. poae isolates from different geographic origins and hosts based on partial sequences of elongation factor-1 alpha (ef1), enniatin synthase (esyn1), intergenic spacer of rDNA (igs), RNA polymerase II (rpb2) and trichodiene synthase (tri5) data sets. Sequence alignments of five individual data sets showed low genetic variability within F. poae with limited development of clonal lineages. Evolutionary divergence varied between genes, with high phylogenetic incongruence between ef1, igs, rpb2 and genes involved in secondary metabolism (esyn1 and tri5). MLS (multilocus sequence analysis) bootstrap consensus tree inferred from the MP separated all 40 F. poae isolates into four well-supported subgroups, although there was no clear geographic or host type basis on this separation. Lack of correlation between subgroups of any individual data set and geographic origin of the isolates and host (wheat) suggests absence of geographic isolation between local populations of F. poae and high adaptative potential of this species to changing environmental conditions, hosts or substrates. The results of the present study may also suggest that recently reported emerging prevalence of F. poae in grain mycobiota is not associated with dramatic changes in the population structure of F. poae.
