Among the classical models for interconnection networks are hypercubes and Fibonacci cubes. cubes induced subgraphs of obtained by restricting vertex set to those binary strings which do not contain consecutive 1s, counted numbers. Another numbers with a restriction on runlengths. Induced hypercube latter as vertices define Fibonacci-run graphs. They have same number cubes, but fewer edges diff...

We formulate and describe a visual compactification of the Teichmüller space by Weil-Petersson geodesic rays emanating from a point X. We focus on analogies with Bers’s compactification: due to non-completeness, finite rays correspond to cusps, and such cusps are dense in the visual sphere. By analogy with a result of Kerckhoff and Thurston, we show the natural action of the mapping class group...

Cosmic-rays are ubiquitous, but their origins are surprisingly difficult to understand. A review is presented of some of the basic issues common to cosmic particle accelerators and arguments leading to the likely importance of diffusive shock acceleration as a general explanation. The basic theory of diffusive shock acceleration is outlined, followed by a discussion of some of the key issues th...

Radiation was first discovered in the late 19th century by Wilhelm Roentgen and has since been used extensively to treat a variety of cancers. Over the last century, we have developed an extensive understanding of the physical properties of radiation as well as radiation biology. Technological advances in the last few decades in medical imaging and radiotherapy delivery have led to the developm...

Rising temperature causes a process of phosphorus release, which can be characterized well using phosphorus release rates (VP). The objective of the present study was to investigate the major factors affecting sediment phosphorus release rates through a wetland habitat simulation experiment. The results showed that the VP of different wetland sediments were different and changed with the order ...

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) form when organic molecules spontaneously chemisorb on the surfaces of solids (e.g. organic thiols and disulfides on gold, silver, and copper or carboxylic acids on the surface of alumina).1'2 The most robust and best characterized SAMs are those comprising alkanethiolates on gold.l By variation of the length of the alkane chain and the identityof the functional...
