We analyze the surface plasmons (SPs) propagating along optically pumped single-graphene layer (SGL) and multiple-graphene layer (MGL) structures. It is shown that at sufficiently strong optical pumping when the real part of the dynamic conductivity of SGL and MGL structures becomes negative in the terahertz (THz) range of frequencies due to the interband population inversion, the damping of th...

Bioremediation of phenol was done using Candida tropicalis SSK01 immobilized cells isolated from petroleum contaminated soil. Optimization of phenol degradation studies was carried at 30 °C to 40 °C, pH 6 to 8 and initial concentration of 300 mgl⁻¹ to 900 mgl⁻¹. Candida tropicalis SSK01 cells immobilized using sodium alginate were used in phenol degradation studies. Optimization of phenol degra...

Introduction: 2013 marks the 25 anniversary of the NASA Planetary Science Summer School (PSSS) [1], which is held every summer at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory to provide postdocs and Ph.D. students with an intensive interdisciplinary experience in planetary robotic mission design under the tutelage of JPL's Advanced Projects Design Team ("Team X") [2]. This abstract summarizes the work of...

We characterize ring spectra morphisms from the algebraic cobordism spectrum MGL ([12]) to an oriented spectrum E (in the sense of Morel [4]) via formal group laws on the ”topological” subring E∗ = ⊕iE 2i,i of E∗∗. This result is then used to construct for any prime p a motivic Quillen idempotent on MGL(p). This defines the BP -spectrum associated to the prime p as in Quillen’s [6] for the comp...
