It is very likely that the quantum description of spacetime is quite different from what we perceive at large scales, l ≫ (G~/c3)1/2. The long wavelength description of spacetime, based on Einstein’s equations, is similar to the description of a continuum solid made of a large number of microscopic degrees of freedom. This paradigm provides a novel interpretation of coordinate transformations a...

This study was conducted to determine the effect of increased propolis production on overall hive profitability and productivity. The study took place near George situated in the Southern Cape region of South Africa. Standard Langstroth hives were used (n = 12) containing honeybee colonies of equal strength from the species Apis mellifera capensis. Propolis production in colonies equipped with ...

The aim of this study was to assess whether refractoriness to long photoperiod (LP) could be reversed by subjecting tomcats to a period of short days. Our hypothesis was that photoperiod changes can avoid refractoriness and restore sperm quality and production to that before refractoriness. Tomcats (n = 6) were housed in a conditioned room with LP (12L: 12D) for 45 days of acclimation and then ...

Arterial ageing may be associated with a reduction in vasodilation due to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, whereas endothelial cell activation induces procoagulant changes. However, little is known on the effect of ageing on expression of anticoagulant endothelial markers such as endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR). To study age-associated alterations in smooth muscle cell ...

iran is located in dry belt of the earth and always involved with drought in different sections. drought has already caused many losses to natural plant cover, agriculture and human society. for drought monitoring, we can use some drought indecies. in this research, the standard index of annual precipitation)siap),sandardized precipitation index (spi) and palmer drought severity index (pdsi) we...

using the mathematic techniques such as fuzzy approach has useful outcomes for production planning in different sources. in this paper lgp1 was used to model the objectives such as: avoidance of shortage or surplus of demand, access to maximum of income, using the normal capacity of production and organizing the inventory of warehouse, within the framework of goal constraints like balancing be...
