A two-dimensional (2D) lattice model defined on a triangular lattice with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions based on the Taylor-Socolar monotile is known to have a limit-periodic ground state. The system reaches that state during a slow quench through an infinite sequence of phase transitions. We study the model as a function of the strength of the next-nearest-neighbor interactio...

Shier, D.R., E.J. Valvo and R.E. Jamison, Generating the states of a binary stochastic system, Discrete Applied Mathematics 37/38 (1992) 489-500. An important aspect of planning a communication or distribution system is assessing its performance when the components are subject to random failure. Since exact calculation of stochastic performance measures is usually difficult, the behavior of the...

to conserve the genetic resources and identify the strong and weak points in sistan watermelon accessions and compare these with improved cultivars of: sugarbaby and fairfax, an experiment was carried out, based on rectangular lattic design of two replications in 2007. the morphological traits studied, included plant length, plant weight, seed weight, fruit number, fruit length, fruit width, su...

The note describes (100) stacking faults in kyanite from a staurolite-kyanite intergrovrth with a displacement vector R : 7zb. Di-ffraction spots k * 2n are streaked and only with those reflections stacking faults are in contrast, which is interpreted as due to a displacement of thb on the,(100) faults. This produces groups of two corner-sharing tetrahedra. If stacking faults occur periodically...

Analytical arguments and dynamic Monte Carlo simulations show that the microscopic structure of field-driven Solid-on-Solid interfaces depends strongly on the details of the dynamics. For nonconservative dynamics with transition rates that factorize into parts dependent only on the changes in interaction energy and field energy, respectively (soft dynamics), the intrinsic interface width is fie...
