In recent decades, due to increasing prices of fossil fuels and environmental pollution resulting from the increased energy demand, researches on renewable energy sources have attracted lots of researcher’s attention. Limited investing sources and environmental issues are important factors effecting electricity generation sector. Minimizing costs and environmental damages are issues being consi...

Diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) is now widely accepted as the model to explain the production of cosmic rays (CRs) in a wide range of astrophysical environments. Despite initial successes of the theory in explaining the energetics and the spectrum of CRs accelerated by supernova remnants, there still remain some unresolved issues such as particle injection out of the thermal plasma at shocks...

Abstract Anisotropy affects the focal mechanism and makes it complicated. A shear motion generates a pure double-couple (DC) source in isotropic media. While anisotropic media, will produce non-DC components, which contain (ISO) compensated linear vector dipole (CLVD) components. Besides, coupled with diversity of fault motion, may become extremely In this paper, seismic moment tensor is obtain...

background: recently, there have been many studies on the harmful effects of radiation and the regulations on radiation safety have been toughened both at the in nation and abroad. this study aims to identify the perceptions and actions taken as to radiation safety, and the degree of knowledge related to radiation held by the radiologists working in large hospitals. materials and methods: the r...
