The flavor changing top quark decays t → cV (V = Z, γ, g) induced by R-parity-violating couplings in the minimal supersymmetric model are evaluated. We find that Br(t → cV ) can be enhanced significantly relative to that in the SUSY model with R-parity. Our results show that Br(t → cg) ∼ 10, Br(t → cZ) ∼ 10 and Br(t → cγ) ∼ 10, which are observable at the upgraded Tevatron and the LHC. PACS: 14...

The flavor changing top quark decays t → cV (V = Z, γ, g) induced by R-parity-violating couplings in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) are evaluated. We find that the decays t → cV can be significantly enhanced relative to those in the R-parity conserving SUSY model. Our results show that the top quark FCNC decay can be as large as Br(t → cg) ∼ 10−3, Br(t → cZ) ∼ 10−4 and Br(t → ...

Donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) into patients with a relapse of their leukemia or multiple myeloma after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) has been shown to be a successful treatment approach. The hematopoiesis-restricted minor histocompatibility antigens (mHAgs) HA-1 or HA-2 expressed on malignant cells of the recipient may serve as target antigens for alloreactive donor T cells. ...

An experiment was carried out on loamy sand soil to evaluate the effect of organic manures (farmyard manure, vermicompost, poultry manure, neem cake and castor cake) on soil and quality parameters of cowpea during summer season of 2014. Nine treatments were tried out in randomized block design with four replications. Recommended Dose Fertilizer (RDF) i.e. 2040-0 NPK kg ha-1 recorded significant...

The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Agricultural Extension, University of Rajshahi to study the yield and yield components of wheat as affected by phosphorus fertilization. The experiment consisted of two factors i.e. (i) three wheat varieties viz., Shatabdi, Bijoy and Prodip and (ii) five levels of phosphorus viz. 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 kg P2O5...

A field experiment was conducted at the Research farm, Division of Agronomy, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, India for two consecutive rainy (kharif) seasons of 2009 and 2010 to find out the impact of nitrogen, sulphur and farmyard manure (FYM) on growth and yield of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). Application of 120 kg N ha significantly increased all the y...

Correct estimation of above-ground biomass (AGB) is necessary for accurate crop growth monitoring and yield prediction. We estimated AGB based on images obtained with a snapshot hyperspectral sensor (UHD 185 firefly, Cubert GmbH, Ulm, Baden-Württemberg, Germany) mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UHD 185 images were used to calculate the crop height and hyperspectral reflectance o...

An experiment on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) was conducted at the experimental field of Department of Horticulture, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Gazipur during November 2012 to April 2013 to find out the suitable foliar doses and application frequency of urea and planofix (NAA). The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized complete block desig...

The effect of aldicarb and fenamiphos on Tylenchulus semipenetrans population densities and on orange yield was investigated during a 3-year (1986-88) field trial in Italy. Rates were 10 and 20 kg a.i./ha as an early spring single application, 5 kg a.i./ha in spring and 5 kg after flowering, and 5 kg a.i. in spring followed by 2.5 kg/ha after flowering and 2.5 kg/ha in early autumn. Rates and t...
