introduction: nowadays,  considerable developments  in  the field  of  radiotherapy have  been  achieved.  they  include  the  advances  made  in  the  equipments  and  treatment  planning  techniques  which  require  highly complex calculations. such achievements have made it possible to treat cancer patients not only  with  higher  radiation  dose  but  also  with  higher  precision  and  con...

Moderate electric fields (MEF) have been previously shown to alter the metabolic activity of microbial cells; thus, the effect of frequency and electric field would be of considerable interest. We investigated herein the effects of MEF frequency on microbial growth kinetics and bacteriocin (Lacidin A) production of Lactobacillus acidophilus OSU 133 during fermentation. The following fermentatio...

spreading faba bean (vicia faba) cultivation can enhance the sustainability of cropping systems and have other important benefits. however, there is little information on the various aspects of production management for this crop. then, this experiment was carried out to study the response of some agronomic characteristics of faba bean cv barakat to inter- (15, 30, 45 and 60 cm) and intra-row (...

In this paper I present ongoing work on the data-oriented parsing (DOP) model. In previous work, DOP was tested on a cleaned-up set of analyzed part-of-speech strings from the Penn Treebank, achieving excellent test results. This left, however, two important questions unanswered: (1) how does DOP perform if tested on unedited data, and (2) how can DOP be used for parsing word strings that conta...

ABSTRACT- In order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and plant density on yield and yield components of bean, a split plot arrangement was conducted in complete randomized block design during two years. The foremost variable was four levels of irrigation: 60, 80, 100, and 120% of the potential evapotranspiration. The second variable was within the row spacing of 5 cm (D1), 10...

Background: Cassava production faces threat from postharvest physiological deterioration (PPD). The PPD is usually observed within the first 72 hours of harvest. Therefore, extending shelf-life cassava root-tubers by few days could reduce appreciable financial losses. Objective: This study aimed to investigate effects sucrose and ascorbic acid on induction micro-tubers cultivars using an In-vit...

Quantized magnetic disks consisting of an array of single domain Ni pillars with a density of 18 Gbits/in. were fabricated using nanoimprint lithography ~NIL! and electroplating. The total disk area, limited by the NIL mold, is 4 cm34 cm, leading to a total 45 Gbits. Magnetic force microscope ~MFM! images show that all pillars 70 nm in diameter and 400 nm in height are single domain. The magnet...
