Collisionless N-body simulations of merging disk-galaxies with mass ratios (η) of 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, and 4:1 have been performed using direct summation with the special purpose hardware GRAPE. The simulations are used to examine whether the formation of elliptical galaxies can be explained in the context of the merger scenario. The photometric, kinematical and isophotal properties of the merger rem...

A field experiment was conducted during 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 seasons at Herbal garden, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, India to study the influence of exogenous application of CPPU and GA yield, 3 fruit quality characters and seedlessness in watermelon. The experiment consists of 12 treatments (CPPU-50 ppm (T ), CPPU-100 ppm (T2), CPPU-200 ppm (T3), GA -100 ppm(T ), GA -200 ppm(T ), CPPU 50 ppm + ...

the mortality associated with secondary peritonitis has been unacceptably high. this is despite improvements in diagnosis and surgical methods. the risk factors affecting outcome have been only partially elucidated the records of 303 patients with the established diagnosis of generalized peritonitis were studied retrospectively for various prognostic factors and their outcomes. the associations...
