One of the most striking aspects of the 11-year sunspot cycle is that there have been times in the past when some cycles went missing, a most well-known example of this being the Maunder minimum during 1645-1715. Analyses of cosmogenic isotopes ((14)C and (10)Be) indicated that there were about 27 grand minima in the last 11,000 yrs, implying that about 2.7% of the solar cycles had conditions a...

Following in the footsteps of the renowned report “Control in an Information Rich World,” Report of the Panel on “Future Directions in Control, Dynamics, and Systems” chaired by Richard Murray (2002), this paper aims to demonstrate that Systems & Control is at the heart of the Information and Communication Technologies to most application domains . As such, Systems & Control should be acknowled...

In this paper, we define 2-normed grand sequence space by inspiration of (Gunawan, 2001) and (Rafeiro et. al., 2018). Also, give some basic properties these spaces.

Recently, a grand unification scenario in unphysical world has been proposed.1) The basic idea is as follows. Fields form multiplets under a unified gauge group and the gauge coupling unification originates from the gauge symmetry at a high-energy scale, as ordinary grand unified theories (GUTs).2), 3) Some members in multiples, however, are unphysical degrees of freedom, which are eliminated b...

We study the statistical mechanics of classical Coulomb systems in a low coupling regime (Debye–Hückel regime) in a confined geometry with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We use a method recently developed by the authors which relates the grand partition function of a Coulomb system in a confined geometry with a certain regularization of the determinant of the Laplacian on that geometry with Dir...

There are several hints that the strong and electroweak forces unify at some very large energy typically assumed to be at around 10 GeV. The quantum fields of the standard model fit nicely into simple representations of a grand unified theory [1] such as e.g. SUð5Þ or SOð10Þ. The idea of unification is extremely attractive for several reasons. For example, a grand unification drastically reduce...

The literature reports that workload factors affect nurses' ability to fully engage in continuing professional development. Hence the work environment in acute care calls for innovative approaches to achieve continuous development of nursing practice and work satisfaction. This study employs a one group pre-test post-test design to test the effectiveness of nursing grand rounds on nursing workl...
