The “Laughlin” picture of the Fractional Quantum Hall effect can be derived using the “exotic” model based on the two-fold centrally-extended planar Galilei group. When coupled to a planar magnetic field of critical strength determined by the extension parameters, the system becomes singular, and “Faddeev-Jackiw” reduction yields the “Chern-Simons” mechanics of Dunne, Jackiw, and Trugenberger. ...

Background and objectives: Calamus rotang is used in traditional medicine. Regarding the previous phytochemical screening of methanol extract of Calamus rotang L. fruits (MCR), this study was performed to find out the antidiarrheal and hypoglycemic effects of the experimented extract in rodents. Methods: Castor oil induced diarrheal test...

The structure and properties of niobapyrimidinium complex were examined by density functionaltheory method (mpw1pw91). The effect of solvent on the structural parameters, frontier orbitalenergies and hyperpolarizability (tot) of this molecule has been explored. The thermodynamicproperties of the title compound at different temperatures have been calculated. Also, the parasubstitutionseffect on ...

The present study aimed to satisfy a twofold purpose: On the one hand, it sought to verify the postulation that agent-based instruction could offer a compromise approach to teaching L2 idioms where form and meaning would be equally emphasized during instruction. Given that anthropomorphism has not been much under scrutiny, this research, on the other hand, sought to ascertain whether learning a...

In this research, the surface stress effect on the nonlocal vibration of piezoelectric square plate reinforced by single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on classical plate theory (CPT) and first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is presented. The elastic properties of piezoelectric nanocomposite plate are estimated by Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka and the extended mixture rule approaches. The ...

The nonlocal and topological nature of the molecular AharonovBohm (MAB) effect is examined for real electronic Hamiltonians. A notion of preferred gauge for MAB is suggested. The MAB effect in the linear + quadratic E ⊗ ε Jahn-Teller system is shown to be essentially analogues to an anisotropic Aharonov-Casher effect for an electrically neutral spin− 2 particle encircling a certain configuratio...

We consider two ways of introducing minimal Abelian gauge interactions into the model presented in [1]. These two approaches are different only if the second central charge of the planar Galilei group is nonzero. One way leads to the standard gauge transformations and the other one to a generalized gauge theory with gauge transformations accompanied by time-dependent area-preserving coordinate ...

A major obstacle toward a quantitative verification, by comparison to experiment, of the theory of the excitations of the fractional quantum Hall effect has been the lack of a proper understanding of disorder. We circumvent this problem by studying the neutral magneto-roton excitations, whose energy is expected to be largely insensitive to disorder. The calculated energies of the roton at 1/3, ...

The microscopic approach for studying the half-filled state of the fractional quantum Hall effect is based on the idea of proposing a trial Fermi wave function of the Jastrow-Slater form, which is then fully projected onto the lowest Landau level. A simplified starting point is to drop the projection operator and to consider an unprojected wave function. A recent study claims that such a wave f...

Oscillations in solar coronal loops appear to be a common phenomenon. Transverse and longitudinal oscillations have been observed with both the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer and Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope imaging experiments. Damped Doppler shift oscillations have been observed in emission lines from ions formed at flare temperatures with the Solar Ultraviolet Measurements o...
