We model the disassembly of an excited nuclear system formed as a result of a heavy ion collision. We find that, as the beam energy in central collisions in varied, the dissociating system crosses a liquid-gas coexistence curve, resulting in a first-order phase transition. Accessible experimental signatures are identified: a peak in specific heat, a power-law yield for composites, and a maximum...

General circulation models (GCMs), used to predict rainfall at a seasonal lead-time, tend to simulate too many rainfall events of too low intensity relative to individual stations within a GCM grid cell. Even if bias in total rainfall is corrected relative to a target location, this distortion of frequency and intensity is expected to adversely affect simulations of crop growth and yield. We pr...

in order to determine the critical period of weed control and investigation the effect of periodical control and interference of weeds natural population on yield and yield components of winter canola (brassica napus l. cv. okapi) in west region of tehran an experiment was carried out at research field of tarbiat modarres university, tehran, iran on 2004-5 growing season. fourteen experimental ...

low cereal and legumes yields and their rwp index are mainly due to poor distribution of rainfall and poor agronomic management practices. rainfed barley yield and rain water productivity (rwp, defined as rainfed grain yield divided by the total crop season annual rainfall water) in the dry farming are considerable by topography and latitude. yield data, rainfall, altitude and latitude of 182 p...

Water deficit stress, permanent or temporary, limits the growth and the distribution of natural vegetation and the performance of cultivated plants more than any other environmental factors. Mechanism involved is still not clear. In order to investigate the effect of different irrigation intervals and anti-transpirants compoundson yield and yield components of Black Cumin (Nigella sativa</e...

In the present study, mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue behavior of a solid-solutionized AA6061 aluminum alloy produced by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process were investigated. The grain refinement after two passes of ECAP significantly increased the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress and decreased the ductility of the alloy. However, the improvement of low cycle fati...

Based on kinematic model of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR), an approach for calculation of PXR characteristics (spectrum, intensity, polarization and yield) has been developed. The approach allows to take into account the beam divergence, mosaicity, aperture sizes, influence of K-edge, etc. using a uniform technique. 1. The existing theoretical models [1-3] describe the process of parametricX...

agricultural drought has resulted in great damage to iran in recent years and it is crucial to cope with this adversity through logical management. one attempt in this regard is to compare affected sites and prioritize them for action plans. this paper develops a methodology for agricultural drought risk analysis based on rain-fed wheat data from kermanshah province and employs it to compare af...
