The (exclusion) statistics of parafermions is used to study degeneracies of quasiholes over the paired (or in general clustered) quantum Hall states. Focus is on the Zk and su(3)k/u(1) 2 parafermions, which are used in the description of spin-polarized and spin-singled clustered quantum Hall states.

a prototype of a straw chopper, equipped with a discharge system was designed and fabricated in the department of mechanics of agricultural machinery, university of tehran, karaj, iran. to test for the effective performance of the machine, the effects of such parameters as: drum speed (at three levels of: 400, 540, and 800 rpm), screen size (at two levels: 2.5 and 4 cm), and number of blades on...

conclusions it seems that noise pollution has harmful effects on the fertility of males. also these findings may suggest the use of a natural curative approach rather than pharmaceutical drugs to optimize both neuroendocrine gonadal axis and testicular integrity induced by pathogenesis stress, and enhance fertility capacity in men. background this study was conducted to examine the efficacy of ...

A SU (4) ⊗ O(3) scheme for nonstrange baryons Abstract. We show that nonstrange baryon resonances can be classified according to multiplets of SU (4)⊗ O(3). We identify spectral regularities and degeneracies that allow us to predict the high spin spectrum from 2 to 3 GeV.

We present a microscopic index formula for the degeneracy of dyons in four-dimensional N = 4 string theory. This counting formula is manifestly symmetric under the duality group, and its asymptotic growth reproduces the macroscopic Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. We give a derivation of this result in terms of the type II five-brane compactified on K3, by assuming that its fluctuations are describe...

We have designed, prototyped, and evaluated the Legend file system, which exploits the ability to regenerate lost files to improve reliability. Unlike RAID-5 and RAID-6, Legend degrades gracefully as the number of failed storage devices increases. Legend also mitigates the high storage capacity overhead imposed by n-way replications. Combined with existing methods, Legend can form another line ...

background: there are studies that indicated dyshomeostasis of oxidant/antioxidant and trace elements in breast cancer patients, but the data regarding the status of these parameters in various stages of breast cancer are limited. the aim of this study was to highlight the status of these biochemical factors in various stages of breast cancer. methods: fifty-eight breast cancers patients partic...
