The density and polarization profiles of the dipolar hard ellipsoids confined between hard walls are studied using the density functional theory (DFT). The Hyper-Netted Chain (HNC) approximation is used to write excess grand potential of the system with respect to the bulk value. The number density is expanded up to zero and first order in polarization to find the results. For the zero order in...

in order to study seed hardening process in pomegranate, some of the relevant biochemical parameters were evaluated in fleshy part of arils or seeds in various soft and hard seeded pomegranate genotypes from the initial fruit set upto ripening stages. lignin was determined from the seeds and enzyme assays were performed on the flesh of arils. analysis of variance revealed significant difference...
