dft calculations were used to investigate adsorptionof  f-, cl-, li+ and na+ ions on the exterior surface of mg12o12 nanocage in the gas phase and water media. the most favorite position for adsorption of the studied anions and cations are atop of mg and o atoms of mg12o12, respectively. the strongest interaction is obtained when fluoride is located atop of mg atom with the adsorption energy of...

cannabis is one of the most banned drugs in the world. cannabinoid-induced dependence or withdrawal signs are indicated by the result of complex molecular mechanisms including upstream protein kinases (pks), such as an extracellular signal regulated kinase1/2 (erk1/2) and downstream glycogen synthase kinase-3β (gsk-3β), which lead to neuronal plasticity. in this study, we examined the protectiv...

a field experiment was conducted at college of aburaihan, university of tehran, iran in 2007 to evaluate the herbicides efficacy in a marigold nursery to control weeds including annual flowers. experimental design was a rcbd with total 12 treatments replicated four times. treatments were trifluralin preplant incorporated at two and three li/ha, trifluralin preplant non incorporated at two and t...

conclusions the evidence that btx-a decreases ntg-induced cgrp-li and sp-li levels in trigeminovascular system suggests that btx-a attenuates migraine by suppression of neuropeptide release. btx-a injections for migraine at acupoint-sites and fixed-sites are effective. acupoint-sites btx-a administration shows more efficacy for migraine than fixed-sites application. results local btx-a injectio...

We have re-analyzed continuum and recombination lines radio data available in the literature in order to derive the luminosity function (LF) of Galactic HII regions. The study is performed by considering the first and fourth Galactic quadrants independently. We estimate the completeness level of the sample in the fourth quadrant at 5 Jy, and the one in the first quadrant at 2 Jy. We show that t...

At the LHC and Tevatron strong initial-state radiation (ISR) plays an important role. It can significantly affect the partonic luminosity available to the hard interaction or contaminate a signal with additional jets and soft radiation. An ideal process to study ISR is isolated Drell-Yan production, pp → Xℓ+ ℓ- without central jets, where the jet veto is provided by the hadronic event shape bea...
