We compute the full contribution of flavor and (or) Lorentz anomalies to the thermodynamic partition function. Apart from the Wess-Zumino consistency condition the Euclidean generating function must satisfy an extra requirement which we refer to as ‘consistency with the Euclidean vacuum’. The latter requirement fixes all Chern-Simons terms that arise in a particular Kaluza-Klein reduction of th...

congenital malformation (cm) will begin to emerge as one of the major childhood health problems .treatment and rehabilitation of children with congenital malformations are costly and complete recovery is usually impossible. the aim of this study was to determine frequency of cm in yazd central city of the islamic republic of iran to find out if there has been any difference in the rate and type...

In this article we report on a new proposal to treat the infrared problems of thermal QCD by taking into account explicitly the confining influence of the Gribov horizon. In order to make clear the possible value of such an approach, we briefly review the most important arguments why a straightforward perturbative description of finite-temperature QCD is unlikely to be successful. From the infr...

Infrared thermography is a nondestructive evaluation technique aimed to the detection of surface temperature variations related to the presence of subsurface defects. Several inspection techniques have been developed over the years with basically two approaches, lock-in thermography and pulsed thermography. These two techniques are based on the principle of heat diffusion and thermal wave refle...

High temperature baryon number non conservation in the electroweak theory caused by the anomaly of the baryonic current is important for the understanding of the origin of baryonic matter in the universe. After the work of Ref. [1] it was realized that the baryon number nonconservation, caused by thermal field fluctuations between gauge-equivalent vacua with different winding numbers could be l...

WMAP’s detection of the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect (SZE) at a much reduced level among several large samples of rich clusters is interpreted in terms of conventional physics. It is by now widely believed that the central soft X-ray and EUV excess found in some clusters cannot be of thermal origin, due to problems with rapid gas cooling and the persistent non-detection of the O VII line, but may ...

We quantify the changes in intensity of Brewer-Dobson Circulation (BDC) during sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) and its impact on tropical thermal structure ozone distribution by composite analysis using observations a chemical-transport model. An increase planetary wave activity enhancement BDC before central date SSW is noticed. A positive anomaly observed upper stratosphere. The lower stra...

We investigate the equation of state, diffusion coefficient, and structural order of a family of spherically symmetric potentials consisting of a hard core and a linear repulsive ramp. This generic potential has two characteristic length scales: the hard and soft core diameters. The family of potentials is generated by varying their ratio, lambda. We find negative thermal expansion (thermodynam...

Thermal anomaly is among factors initiating coral bleaching and mortalities and threatening coral reefs worldwide. Therefore, susceptibility of corals to thermal stress is a central concern in reef conservation. In this study, we evaluated underwater temperature during 2012-13 and bleaching status of corals during summer 2012 in Hengam Island located in the eastern Persian Gulf. Hengam coral...
