We calculate the finite volume effects for the pion and nucleon mass. For the pion mass we present the results of a full two-loop calculation in chiral perturbation theory. The outcome shows that the resummed version of the Lüscher formula we presented in an earlier work does indeed give an excellent approximation to the two-loop result. In view of this result we apply the same resummed formula...

The possibility that the oceanic general circulation is undergoing changes as part, or the cause, of major climate shifts is being intensely discussed, with some published results relying on data from moorings spanning the North Atlantic Ocean. The circulation is, however, extremely noisy. Here, I use existing estimates of the frequency and wavenumber content of geostrophic eddies in the ocean ...

Abstract  In this paper , the nonlinear the nonlinear free and forced axisymmetric vibration of a thin circular functionally graded plate with rigid core is formulated in terms of von-Karman’s dynamic equation , and a semi-analytical approach is developed.Functionally graded material (FGM) properties vary through the thickness of the plate.FGM s are spatial composites within which material prop...

in this study, geometrical, gravimetrical and frictional properties of four common varieties of iranian canola seeds (namely: slm, hyola, okapi, orient), containing the mean moisture value of 6.5% (w.b.) were investigated. geometrical and gravimetrical properties included length, diameter, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, thousand seed mass, volume, true density, bulk density and porosity. ...

To understand the dynamics of islet population, especially during conditions with growth of the total islet mass, it is important to have reliable estimators of parameters describing the quantitative appearance of the islet population. We describe a stereological estimator of the volume-weighted mean islet volume based on unbiased assumption-free stereological principles. The volume-weighted me...

Quantum efficiencies of surface (SPE) and volume (VPE) photo-emissions from metal nanoparticles are calculated by quantum mechanical perturbation theory compared with each other. Along discontinuities in the potential barrier dielectric function, discontinuity electron effective mass on metal-environment interface is taken into account. General formulas for SPE VPE derived. An example spherical...
