We explore the consequences of placing the Standard Model gauge fields in the bulk of the recently proposed localized gravity model of Randall and Sundrum. We find that the Kaluza Klein excitations of these fields are necessarily strongly coupled and we demonstrate that current precision electroweak data constrain the lowest states to lie above ' 23 TeV. Taking the weak scale to be ∼ 1 TeV, the...

In this work, we present the gravitational field generated by a cosmic string carrying a timelike current in the scalar-tensor gravities. The mechanism of formation and evolution of wakes is fully investigated in this framework. We show explicitly that the inclusion of electromagnetic properties for the string induces logarithmic divergences in the accretion problem.

A new gravity model with the function F (R) = (1/β) arctan (βR− βR) instead of the Ricci scalar in the Einstein–Hilbert action, describing inflation of the Universe, is suggested and analyzed. We obtain constant curvature solutions of the model in the Jordan frame. Performing the conformal transformation of the metric, the potential and the mass of a scalar degree of freedom in the Einstein fra...

drilling fluid is the most important lifeline of the drilling operation, that main task is facilitate the cuttings removal of the drilling. there are varieties of drilling fluids such as sodium bentonite based-drilling fluid is called “mud” and drilling foam or surfactant based-drilling fluid is called “soap”. the present work aims are study on the modified drilling mud properties by using the ...

The historic Penouta mine in northwest Spain is the focus of efforts to extract tantalum from tin mining waste. This paper describes the characterisation of the tantalum mineralogy of waste material from the deposit. Characterisation was realised using quantitative mineralogy and geochemistry. This paper further identifies other phases of interest and investigates the potential for extraction u...

Dysfunctional voiding (DV), defined as abnormal coordination between the urinary sphincter and detrusor muscle in a neurologically intact individual, affects approximately 40% of patients that populate pediatric urology clinics. Improper hydration specific gravity concentration irritants, resulting symptoms similar to those seen DV patients.

We describe a flume study of the spatio-temporal evolution of particulate gravity currents. Time series of the vertical structure of flow in terms of the forward component of velocity, flow concentration and grain-size of suspended sediment were co-measured at a different position along the flume for each of a series of nominally identical flows. The data are combined to show the spatial evolut...

one of the issues that has gained a good place in considerations of the office of the prosecution and international criminal court is the gravity threshold set out in paragraph 1(d) of article 17 of statute. this concept from the time of being inserted in statute has some challenges such as lack of definition in statute, lack of criterion for satisfaction of this concept. given to the fact that...

in this research the operation of fixed activated sludge system for treatment of wastewater containing heavy metal compounds, by use of fas pilot ,a plaxy glass tank with three section; these section are downward-flow aerated reactor, upward-flow aerated reactor and gravity sediment unit, length and width and height of each part was respectively 15.7cm, 31.5cm , 51.5 cm and feeding with the syn...

The object of this investigation was to find out how far this method could be employed usefully in India Command in place of the usual haematocrit technique, which requires equipment not always available. Assessments of mean corpuscular volume based on an inspection of dry. blood films or of the cells in the counting chamber cannot be expressed in figures, and it has thus been difficult to obta...
