A Logical Proof of the Polignac's Conjecture Based on Partitions of an Even Number of a New Formulation
Authors: Sankei Daniel , Njagi Loyford , Mutembei Josephine 
Published: March 2024

Polignac's Conjecture, proposed by Alphonse de Polignac in the 19th century, is a captivating hypothesis that extends the notion of twin primes to a broader context. It posits that for any even positive integer 2k, there exist infinitely many pairs of consecutive prime numbers whose difference is 2k. This conjecture is a natural generalization of the Twin Prime Conjecture, which focuses solely on pairs of primes differing by two. The conjecture has significant implications for our understanding of the distribution of prime numbers and the nature of their gaps and its exploration serves as a testament to the enduring fascination and mystery surrounding prime numbers and their properties. However, despite extensive efforts by mathematicians over the years, Polignac's Conjecture remains unproven, standing as one of the many unsolved problems in number theory. This study utilizes a set of all odd partitions generated from an even number of a new formulation, and we show that from this set of all pairs of odd numbers, there exist proper subsets containing infinitely many pairs of prime numbers whose differences is a fixed even gap. Finally, using these results and the facts that the difference of any two prime numbers is even and there exist infinitely many prime numbers, a logical proof of the Polignac's Conjecture is provided.

Published: March 2024

Advancements in bioinformatics have ushered in a new era in modern agriculture by seamlessly integrating computational methodologies with crop genomics. This paper explores the transformative impact of bioinformatics on crop genomics and its consequential benefits for both agriculture and the environment. Bioinformatics tools and techniques are instrumental in decoding the intricate genetic information of crops, leading to the development of tailored solutions for improved crop yield, resistance to diseases, and environmental sustainability. The first aspect of this transformation involves the utilization of high-throughput sequencing technologies, which generate vast amounts of genomic data. Bioinformatics algorithms play a crucial role in processing and analysing these data sets, enabling researchers to unravel the complex genetic codes of crops efficiently. This genomic information serves as a foundation for precision breeding programs, allowing scientists to identify desirable traits and accelerate the development of crops with enhanced resilience and productivity. Furthermore, bioinformatics facilitates the identification of molecular markers associated with key agronomic traits. This information enables the implementation of marker-assisted breeding, a technique that expedites the selection of desired traits in crops, reducing the time and resources required for traditional breeding methods. The result is the development of crop varieties that are not only more productive but also more resistant to pests and diseases, contributing to global food security. Beyond enhancing crop performance, bioinformatics-driven crop genomics also addresses environmental concerns. By deciphering the genetic basis of stress tolerance and resource- use efficiency, researchers can develop crops that require fewer inputs such as water, fertilizers, and pesticides. This not only benefits farmers economically but also reduces the ecological footprint of agriculture, promoting sustainable practices and minimizing environmental impact.
Spoiling of transverse magnetization in gradient‐echo (GRE) imaging during the approach to steady state
Authors: Epstein Frederick H. , Mugler John P. , Brookeman James R. 
Published: March 2007

AbstractThe signal evolution behaviors and corresponding image appearances for different methods of spoiling or refocusing the transverse magnetization in short TR gradient‐echo imaging during the approach to steady state were investigated experimentally and using computer simulations based on the Bloch equations. Specifically, ideally spoiled, gradient‐spoiled, gradient‐refocused, and RF‐spoiled pulse sequence configurations were studied. This study showed that, for the gradient‐spoiled configuration, the signal evolution is position and phase‐encoding order‐dependent and, under typical imaging conditions, can deviate substantially from the ideally spoiled signal evolution at some spatial positions, resulting in intensity banding image artifacts. For the gradient‐refocused configuration, the signal evolution oscillates toward the steady state and, generally, does not closely approximate that of ideal spoiling, resulting in different image contrast or image blurring. Using RF spoiling, the signal evolution closely approximates the ideally spoiled case for flip angles less than approximately 20° and T2 values of less than approximately 200 ms and results in relatively artifact‐free images. Also, this study showed that, for RF spoiling, an RF‐pulse phase‐difference increment other than 117°, such as 84°, may be optimal for gradient‐echo imaging during the approach to steady state.
Inhomogeneity correction using an estimated linear field map
Authors: Irarrazabal Pablo , Meyer Craig H. , Nishimura Dwight G. , Macovski Albert 
Published: March 2007

AbstractA fast and robust method for correcting magnetic resonance image distortion due to field in homogeneity is proposed and applied to spiral k‐space scanning. The method consists of acquiring a local field map, finding the best fit to a linear map, and using it to deblur the image distortions due to local frequency variations. The linear field map is determined using a maximum likelihood estimator with weights proportional to the pixel intensity. The method requires little additional computation and is robust in low signal regions and near abrupt field changes. Additionally. It can be used in combination with other deblurring methods. The application of this method is illustrated in conjunction with a mura'slice, T2‐weighted, breath‐held spiral scan of the liver.

Published: March 2007

AbstractA novel approach is presented for imaging macromolecule and metabolite signals in brain by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging. The method differentiates between metabolites and macromolecules by T1 weighting using an inversion pulse followed by a variable inversion recovery time before localization and spectroscopic imaging. In healthy subjects, the major macromolecule resonances at 2.05 and 0.9 ppm were mapped at a nominal spatial resolution of 1 × 1 × 1.5 cm3 and were demonstrated to be highly reproducible between subjects. In subacute stroke patients, a highly elevated macromolecule resonance at 1.3 ppm was mapped to infarcted brain regions, suggesting potential applications for studying pathological conditions.
MR measurement of relative water content and multicomponent T2 relaxation in human breast
Authors: Graham Simon J. , Bronskill Michael J. 
Published: March 2007

AbstractMR techniques providing accurate measurement of relative volumetric water content and multicomponent T2 relaxation times from a large volume of interest, have been implemented for characterization of breast tissue in vivo. In a sequence of 20‐s breath‐holds, data are obtained from much of the breast volume while suppressing signal from the chest wall and torso. Relative water content of each breast is calculated from one‐dimensional fat and water profiles obtained using a hybrid two‐point Dixon method (TE/TR=17/5000 ms). Multicomponent T2 relaxation measurements are calculated from T2 decay curves obtained using a CPMG train of rectangular pulses (TE/TR=8/5000 ms, 140 echoes) preceded by saturation pulses to localize longitudinal magnetization spatially. These techniques, validated in phantoms and human volunteers, are suitable for quantitative study of breast tissue in vivo, and in particular to investigate the potential role of MR for assessment of breast cancer risk.
Velocity encoding using ghost artifacts
Authors: Madore Bruno , Henkelman R. Mark 
Published: March 2007

AbstractMotion artifacts represent a significant limitation of MRI, and an ideal solution to that problem has proved elusive. However, in this paper, motion artifacts are not considered as the usual enemy and are not suppressed; on the contrary, they are deliberately created to encode flow information. In MRI, velocity is encoded readily into the phase of a pixel. However, if the pixel contains overlapping signals, the phase of one of these signals now has consequences on both the magnitude and phase of the resulting pixel. It is shown here that an overlap of information may be used to encode velocity both in the phase and in the magnitude of an image, making the velocity‐encoding process faster. The overlap of information is obtained by superposing ghosting artifacts of different orders and information is retrieved about complex intensity and velocity in two dimensions using the equivalent of two images instead of the usual three images. The price to pay to do so is some loss of simplicity in the equations involved, an increase in reconstruction computing time requirements, and a factor of 4 decrease in signal‐to‐noise ratio in the velocity measurements.
Victim's Rights and the Constitution: Reflections on a Bicentennial
Authors: Viano Emilio 
Published: March 2007

This article examines the unfolding, activities, and successes of the victim's rights movement within the American constitutional framework of the Bill of Rights. It analyzes the general importance of “victims” as an effective political symbol and probes the connection between the victim movement and the powerful conservative forces that have dominated American life and the shaping of the criminal justice agenda during the 1980s. It focuses in particular on the cooptation of the victim's movement by the proponents of the “crime control” model of criminal justice. It contrasts the liberal and conservative approaches. solutions, and agendas and the clashes between the rights of the accused and those of the victim. It also looks for points of convergence and working agreement. Restitution is utilized as an example of an idea and plan that could bring disparate interests together. The article dedicates considerable space to a consideration of a possible constitutional foundation for victim's rights and concludes by pointing out the inherent dangers and destructive divisiveness that can be generated by an exclusive or excessive or excessive emphasis on “rights.”
Relationship of Interest Measurement from the Copsystem Interest Inventory (Form P) and the Strong Campbell Interest Inventory (SCII): Construct Validation of Two Measures of Interest at the College Level
Authors: Knapp-Lee Lisa , Michael William B. , Grutter Judith 
Published: March 2007

The 1969 revision of the Strong Vocational Interest Blank (SVIB) introducted to that instrument the concept of homogeneously keyed scales presenting 23 Basic Interest scales, and the 1974 revision, the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory (SCII) integrated the six Holland types into the scoring in terms of six Theme scales (Campbell and Hansen, 1981)-29 scales in all. These changes acknowledging the theoretical structures of occupational interests make comparisons between the SCII constructs and other homogeneously keyed instruments more meaningful. The purpose of the present study was to provide construct validity data by evaluating the relationship between results obtained from the college level form of the Carrer Occupational Preference System, Interest Inventory, Form P (COPS-P) (Knapp-Lee, Knapp, and Knapp, 1983) and those of the Theme and Basic Interest scales of the SCII. Correlations were computed between the COPS-P scales and both the SCII Theme and Basic Interest scales for a sample of 122 college students. The magnitude of correlations between conceptually similar COPS-P and SCII Theme scales ranged between .29 and .72 with the median being .60. In virtually every instance the COPS-P scale was more highly related to the theoretically consistent SCII Theme scale than to any other Theme scale in the array. In a comparison of the COPS-P scales with the SCII Basic Interest Scales, an examination of relationships between those scales which have identical, or nearly identical, names did show a range in magnitude of .37 to .81 with a median of .68. The highest correlation was between the COPS-P Communication, Written scale and the SCII Basic Interest scale, Writing. The pattern of correlations between the COPS-P scales and the SCII Theme scales provided support for the theoretical constructs measured by the two instruments.

Authors: Pillai U.T.S. , Pandey R.K. 
Published: March 2007

Al-Graphite composites have been prepared using liquid metallurgy technique with Al-3 % Mg as the base alloy. The composites of three different volume fractions varying from .022 to 0.067 and three different particulate sizes (75-250 μm) have been used for the study. The microstructure, particule size distribution and tensile properties have been studied in both the cast and the forged conditions of the composites. The main findings are that the strength and ductility 1. Decrease with increasing vol. % of graphite 2. Increase with particulate size at a given vol. % of graphite 3. Increase with inter-particle spacing A comparison has been made between the cast and the forged composites with respect to strength and ductility. The tensile fracture strain in these composites appears to follow Thomosan's void coalescence model. The micromechanism of fracture has been studied using SEM and the results have been correlated with the tensile properties.
