An effective theory is a systematic approximation to some underlying dynamics (which may be known or unknown) that is valid in some specified regime. An effective theory is not a model, since its systematic character means that, in principle, predictions of arbitrary accuracy may be made. However, if this is to be true then a small parameter, such as the α of quantum electrodynamics, must gover...

Laminar boundary layer flow and heat transfer of Newtonian nanofluid over a stretching sheet with the sheet velocity distribution of the form (UW=cXβ) and the wall temperature distribution of the form (TW=T∞+aXr ) for the steady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) is studied numerically. The governing momentum and energy equations are transformed to the local non-similarity equations using the appropriat...

bioedegradable nanoparticles are intensively investigated for their potential applications in drug delivery systems. being a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, chitosan holds great promise for use in this area. this investigation was concerned with determination and optimization of the effective parameters involved in the production of chitosan nanoparticles using ionic gelation method. s...

chemical vapor deposition (cvd) is one of the most popular methods for producing carbon nanotubes (cnts). the growth rate of cnts based on cvd technique is investigated by using a numerical model based on finite volume method. inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. in thi...

I report on our construction and analysis of the effective low energy Lagrangian for the Minimal Walking Technicolor (MWT) model [1]. The parameters of the effective Lagrangian are constrained by imposing modified Weinberg sum rules and by imposing a value for the S parameter estimated from the underlying Technicolor theory. The constrained effective Lagrangian allows for an inverted vector vs....
