We consider the transport of angular momentum in accretion disks that are low mass, in the sense that the gravitational forces produced by the material in these disks has a negligible effect on disk dynamics. There is no established consensus on how this transport takes place. We note that for phenomenological reasons the traditional α model is probably not a good description of real disks. Her...

Recent measurements of methyl radicals (CH3) in the upper atmospheres of Saturn and Neptune by the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) provide new constraints o photochemical models of hydrocarbon chemistry in the outer solar system. The derived column abundances of CH3 on Saturn above 10 mbar and Neptune above the 0.2 mbar t3 -2 ß pressure level are (2.5 6.0) x 1013 cm -2 and (0.7 2.8) x 10 cm , ...

the human population has been growing at least at the rate of 1.2% annually since 1960 reachingup to 6.4b in 2002 and more than 7.0b in 2012. in davao city, the annual population growth rate is running at 3.22%in year 1990, at 2.41% last 2007 and recently in 2013 at 2.36%. the alarming problem we confront today is thatthe increase in land area for human use does not expand in proportion to popu...

We have recently synthesized [Ni (MAP) ] complex [H-MAP= 2- (methylamino) pyridine]. 2- (Methy1amino)pyridine reacts with MeLi in THF and generates the lithium salt (Li-MAP). Further reaction of NiCl with two equivalent of this ligand in THF leads to the formation of a dark red solution. Analytical data, molecular weight, and magnetic susceptibility of this complex confirm the formula [N...

The study of knowledge has always been one of the central issues of the AI research. The general belief has been that "the more you have it the better you are." It was well understood that incorrect knowledge is harmful and should be avoided, but correct knowledge had been mostly considered beneficial. The potential harmfulness of correct knowledge received attention in very few early works but...
