Cygnus X-1 is a well-studied persistent black hole X-ray binary. Recently, the three parameters needed to estimate spin of this system, namely mass $M$, orbital inclination $i$ and source distance $D$, have been updated. In work we redetermine parameter using continuum-fitting technique for those updated values. Based on assumption that axis aligned with plane, fit thermal disk component fully ...

Prime objects were defined as generalization of simple objects in the categories of rings (modules). In this paper we introduce and investigate what turns out to be a suitable generalization of simple corings (simple comodules), namely fully coprime corings (fully coprime comodules). Moreover, we consider several primeness notions in the category of comodules of a given coring and investigate t...

This article provides a summary of the changes along with the updated recommendations (Table 1) made by Health Canada’s Steering Committee on Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Care and Treatment of Breast Cancer to the article “Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Care and Treatment of Breast Cancer: 9. Follow-up after treatment for breast cancer,” originally published in 1998 (the 2005 upda...

Background and objectives: Needle stick and sharp injuries (NSIs) has remained as a persisting occupational hazard among the healthcare workers. This study aimed to provide updated information on the intensity and potential causes of the problem in Iran, by surveying a sample from major hospitals affiliated with Tehran University of Medical Sciences.   Methods: Of 3312 healthcare workers with...

in this research, an iterative approach is employed to recognize and classify control chart patterns. to do this, by taking new observations on the quality characteristic under consideration, the maximum likelihood estimator of pattern parameters is first obtained and then the probability of each pattern is determined. then using bayes’ rule, probabilities are updated recursively. finally, when...

Please find attached the revised version of our manuscript. We have updated the three references as suggested by the reviewer. We hope that our conclusions and discussion fully address the limitations of this study. We have included the sections on authors' contributions and competing interests at the end of the manuscript just before acknowledgements. We have also attached figure legends after...

This paper deals with some very simple interacting particle systems, elementary cellular automata, in the fully asyn-chronous dynamics: at each time step, a cell is randomly picked, and updated. When the initial configuration is simple, we describe the asymptotic behavior of the random walks performed by the borders of the black/white regions. Following a classification introduced by Fatès et a...

An updated description of the final larval instar and pupa of Megatoma (s. str.) undata (Linnaeus, 1758) (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is presented. Several morphological characteristics of M. undata larvae are documented and discussed: antenna, epipharynx, mandibula, maxilla, ligula with labial palpi, hastisetae, terga, and condition of the antecostal suture. The paper is fully illustrated and inc...

The paper discusses how the well known USACE HEC models, RAS and HMS, are fully integrated within the decision support system of the Romagna River Basins in order to predict flood effects. The models are fully available from the web and cope with such a variety of problems as rainfall-runoff modeling, river and civil works hydraulics, and the mapping of hydraulic hazard. The paper illustrates t...
