Data for the 14C(6Li,d)18O(6.20) reaction, at 20 MeV, provides an α spectroscopic factor of 0.23 for this 1– state. Assuming equal spectroscopic factors for mirror states, the computed α width for 18Ne(6.15) is 3.9(1.0) eV. Disciplines Physical Sciences and Mathematics | Physics Comments Fortune, H. T.

Our subject is oriented towards investigation of potential ways of societal organization, that allow for collective intelligent organization and management of resources. The main objective of such organizations is the exploration of the social energy from the existing societies. We conjecture that an organizational model that fulfills the mentioned requirements is the Fractal Social Organizatio...

New results for energies of resonances in 18Na have led us to reexamine the problems of 18Na and 19Mg. We have calculated the effect of the new data on energy and decay width of 19Mg (ground state).

The presented article deals with the application of Reverse Engineering and Rapid Prototyp-ing processes in development process automotive industry. In our case, we will focus on design exterior rear view mirror. We obtained information about shape as well data used to model part a virtual CAD computer environment by scanning it Leica laser scanner. point cloud was imported into CATIA V5 softwa...

One of the significant challenges facing the development of web portals is optimising the usability of such e-infrastructures for diverse, yet specialised uses. This paper presents a usability framework for supporting the iterative testing and development of the Australian Urban Research Infrastructure Network (AURIN). The AURIN portal serves as a securitised environment for data sharing, and a...

BACKGROUND One root cause of the neglect of rabies is the lack of adequate diagnostic tests in the context of low income countries. A rapid, performance friendly and low cost method to detect rabies virus (RABV) in brain samples will contribute positively to surveillance and consequently to accurate data reporting, which is presently missing in the majority of rabies endemic countries. METHOD...

External sulfate attack of concrete is a major problem that can appear in regions where concrete is exposed to soil or water containing sulfates, leading to softening and cracking of the concrete. Therefore, it is important that materials selection and proportioning of concrete in susceptible regions be carefully considered to resist sulfate attack. American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM)...
