The authors consider the problem of determining the temperature distribution u(x, t) on the half-line x 0, > 0, from measurements at an interior point, for all > 0. As is well-known, this is an ill-posed problem Using the Tikhonov method, the authors give a regularized solution, and assuming the (unknown) exact solution is in H(R),a > 0 They give an error estimate of the order for e 0, where e ...

This paper addresses the potential for predicting heat flux from thermographic phosphor measurements. Temperature can be measured using thermographic phosphors by extracting the intensity decay of the phosphor, which is temperature dependent. This measured temperature can then be used to estimate boundary heat fluxes, which is often called the inverse heat conduction problem. Heating rate can a...

the objective of this study was to evaluate genetic and phenotypic parameters for some reproductive traits of black bengal does. genetic parameters were estimated by residual maximum likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanent environmental effects. the least-squares means of litter size at birth (lsb), litter size at weaning (lsw), litter weight at birt...

There was considerable interest in the properties and the fate of heavy quarkonium states at finite temperature since the famous conjecture by Matsui and Satz [1]. It has been argued that color screening in medium will lead to quarkonium dissociation above deconfinement, which in turn can signal quark gluon plasma formation in heavy ion collisions. The basic assumption behind the conjecture by ...

Most discussions of decoherence in the literature consider the high temperature regime but it is also known that, in the presence of dissipation, decoherence can occur even at zero temperature. Whereas most previous investigations all assumed initial decoupling of the quantum system and bath, we consider that the system and environment are entangled at all times. Here, we discuss decoherence fo...

Lattice QCD studies on charmonium at finite temperature are presented After a discussion about problems for the Maximum Entropy Method applied to finite temperature lattice QCD, I show several results on charmonium spectral functions. The “wave function” of charmonium is also discussed to study the spatial correlation between quark and anti-quark in deconfinement phase.

Several studies have connected emissions of greenhouse gases to economic and trade data to quantify the causal chain from consumption to emissions and climate change. These studies usually combine data and models originating from different sources, making it difficult to estimate uncertainties along the entire causal chain. We estimate uncertainties in economic data, multi-pollutant emission st...
