In the last ten years, the use of gamma-ray spectrometry for geological mapping and mineral exploration has shown considerable growth. With this growth, standardized procedures have been developed for the calibration and processing of the airborne measurements so that they will be independent of survey parameters. This paper describes some of the new developments to convert airborne data to gro...

Calculations of sensitivities of future experiments are a necessary ingredient in experimental high energy physics. Especially in the context of measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters extensive studies are performed to arrive at the optimal configuration. In this note we clarify the definition of sensitivity as often applied in these studies. In addition we examine two of the most ...

We consider leptogenesis induced by soft supersymmetry breaking terms (“soft leptogenesis”), in the context of the inverse seesaw mechanism. In this model there are lepton number (L) conserving and L-violating soft supersymmetry-breaking B-terms involving the singlet sneutrinos which, together with the – generically small– L-violating parameter responsible of the neutrino mass, give a small mas...

Population ageing is a major issue for society in the next years, especially because of theincrease of dependent people. The limits in specialized institutes capacity and the wish of theelderly to stay at home as long as possible explain a growing need for new specific at home services.Technologies can help securing the person at home by detecting falls. They can also help in th...

Over the years, poultry industry has used various types of promoters toimprove production; however, current trend is to eliminate growth that cause resistance in humans, for example, antibiotics European Union, there a need look natural alternatives are beneficial body and do not have negative impact on human health. The objective present study was evaluate productive parameters, pullets from o...

Regardless the crop production, range and livestock management is unlikely to be possible. Considering the range production is essential for efficient and effective range management. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the rate of forage production and the effects of climate variables. For this purpose, forage yield of four range species including Artemisia sieberi, Scar...

Thermal recovery techniques including Fast-SAGD process increases the production efciency of heavy oil reservoirs. Effective parameters in this study included injection and production rates, height of the injection, production, and offset wells, production and injection cycles, and pressure of the offset wells. In this study, optimization studies were performed. The objective function was defned a...

Background: Contamination of stored pistachio nuts to Aspergillus section Flavi and aflatoxins (AFs) as well as effective parameters on fungal growth and AF production during storage was assayed. Methods: Twenty one pistachio nut samples were taken from some warehouse of Damghan county. Different parameters of storage, including temperature, relative humidity, and pest infestation were recorded...
