Effects of Starvation and Thermal Stress on the Thermal Tolerance of Silkworm, Bombyx mori: Existence of Trade-offs and Cross-Tolerances
Organisms, in nature, are often subjected to multiple stressors, both biotic and abiotic. Temperature and starvation are among the main stressors experienced by organisms in their developmental cycle and the r...

Open AccessX-ray spectroscopic study of amorphous and polycrystalline PbO films, α-PbO, and β-PbO for direct conversion imaging
We investigated the electronic structure of Lead Oxide (PbO) – one of the most promising photoconductor materials for direct conversion x-ray imaging detectors, using soft x-ray emission and absorption spectro...

Arbitrary electron acoustic waves in degenerate dense plasmas
A theoretical investigation is carried out of the nonlinear dynamics of electron-acoustic waves in a collisionless and unmagnetized plasma whose constituents are non-degenerate cold electrons, ultra-relativist...

Ion Streaming Instabilities in Pair Ion Plasma and Localized Structure with Non-Thermal Electrons
Pair ion plasma with a fraction of non-thermal electrons is considered. We investigate the effects of the streaming motion of ions on linear and nonlinear properties of unmagnetized, collisionless plasma by us...

Ion-temperature-gradient driven modes in dust-contaminated plasma with nonthermal electron distribution and dust charge fluctuations
The effect of nonthermal electrons on ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) driven modes is investigated in the presence of variable dust charge and ion shear flow. The dust charge fluctuating expression is obtained ...

Fractures of the distal third of the clavicle treated by hook plating
We retrospectively assessed the union and shoulder function following hook plate fixation in 18 patients with Neer type 2 fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle. The average age was 40 (range 22–62) year...

Upper Bound to the Density Jump at the Boundary of the Earth's Inner Core
THE Earth has an inner core about the size of the Moon. Convincing observations of the seismic waves PKiKP, reflected at steep angles from the inner core boundary (ICB), were announced by Engdahl et al. (annual m...
