Abstrak: Papaya and Watermelon are one of the famous agriculture commodity. As a agriculture products, they are perishables. This is because papaya and watermelon are still doing metabolitic activity (respiration). The effect of papaya and watermelon respiration is chemical changing so that caused physical changing. The physical changing as a result of chemical changing could be perceived directly as a color, aroma, texture and flavour changing. People generally prefer to consumed them in cold condition. Before they are ready to consume, papaya and watermelon are processed minimally, including fruits cleaning, paring, and cutting into a smaller size so that make them more interesting and easier to consume. They also has a big size so they havenot finished consumed in once time. So, usually people cut them several time during consumption. Minimally processed cause injury in the fruits so that make it shorter in storage life. The way that we can do to prolong the storage life of the minimally processed of papaya and watermelon is a proper packaging and cold storage. The aim of the research is to get characteristic of packaging, physical, chemical, microbiology’s characteristic of fruits, and quality parameter changing and organoleptic assesment for cold storage according to the technique packaging. It also determine the suitable packaging for the fruits during cold storage. Storage were conducted at five treatment that is using polypropylene packaging with two opened circulation holes (B1), polypropylene packaging with one opened circulation hole (B2), polypropylene packaging with two closed circulation holes (B3), plate with cling film plastic cover (B4), plate with no cover (B5) and conducted in the chiller refrigator with 5 - 100C temperature. The parameter which were tested are proximate test (including water content, ash content, protein content, faty content and fiber content) and quality analysis including physical parameter (texture and color), chemical parameter (water content, total acid content, pH, total sugar content, Aw, vitamin C), microbiological test (TPC) and organoleptic test. The parameter were tested during 14 days storage. The result of research showed that thickness, gramature and density of polypropylene packaging is higher and transmission rate (O2, CO2, H2O) is lower than cling film plastic packaging. Characteristic of papaya and watermelon showed that both of them had a relatively high water content (> 80%), watermelon’s texture was lower than papaya’s, neutral’s pH (6.10 for papaya and 5.60 for watermelon), papaya and watermelon’s Aw were 0.82 dan 0.80. They also has a relatively low carbohydrates, protein, and fat. The result also showed that during storage was occurred the increasing microbiological test (TPC). It cause the increasing of water content (except in B5), decreasing of total sugar content, increasing of total acid and decreasing of pH, increasing of color brightness (except in B5), and 0Hue (except in B5 of watermelon) and also increasing of texture content. Organoleptic test showed that fruits that in plate with no cover (B5) had the highest decreasing than the other. Panelists still like the fruits that packed in all of polypropylene packaging (B1, B2, B3) until nine to twelve days, fruits in plate with cling film cover (B4) until eight

Abstrak: Packaging is the most important method to keep horticultural comodity still maintained in the best quality. Filler material that will be used to package the horticultural comodity. Papaya is one of the horticultural comodity that has a great potential to be developed commercially. The objectives of this research was to asses the endurance of physical quality parameters of its fruits, such as mechanical damage on papaya, hardness, total solid soluble and weight losses. The first treatment is used sliced filler paper, sliced and sheet of spons, partition of cardboard for the filler material in the pack and control pack without filler. The second treatment is arranged the papaya position in packaging by using two different methods, such as horizontal and vertikal methods. The result has sown the papaya which arranged horizontal and packaged with the sliced filler paper is the suitable treatment for packaging. After transportation simulation, the treatment showed 16.67 % of mechanical damaged, 3.6 Kgf of hardness, 0.02 % of weight loss and 7.42 0Brix of total solid soluble. At the 8th days, showed 75 % of mechanical damaged, 0.405 Kgf of hardness, 10.26 % of weight loss and 8.39 0Brix of total solid soluble. The papaya which arranged horizontal and packaged with the sliced filler paper can reduce the vibration better than other.

Judul: igenvalues and Eigenvectors of Tridiagonal Matrix with Non Constant and Recurrent Diagonal Entries.
Abstrak: Matriks tridiagonal adalah suatu matriks yang mempunyai entri-entri bernilai nol kecuali pada diagonal utama, di bawah diagonal utama (subdiagonal) dan di atas diagonal utama (superdiagonal). Entri pada diagonal utama tidak konstan dan berulang. Setiap entri pada matriks tridiagonal ini adalah bilangan kompleks. Dalam karya ilmiah ini, akan dibuktikan 3 teorema untuk menentukan nilai eigen dengan 2 kasus dan 1 teorema untuk menentukan vektor eigen. Teorema pertama menentukan polinomial karakteristik dari matriks tridiagonal. Polinomial karakteristik dari matriks tridiagonal tersebut digunakan untuk menentukan nilai eigen pada teorema kedua dan ketiga serta menentukan vektor eigen pada teorema keempat
