in this paper, using annular resonator we have designed an adding and dropping filter light based ontwo-dimensional photonic crystals. the shape of ring resonator filter adding and dropping that wehave proposed is race track. this filter has a hexagonal lattice structure of silicon bars withrefractive index 3/46 that is located in the context of air with refractive index 1. transmissionefficien...

cyclotides are small disulfide-rich proteins that have the unusual feature of a cyclic backbone. cyclotides have a range of interesting biological activities and are found in a variety of tropical plants from the rubiaceae, violaceae, cucurbitaceae and fabaceae families. we have cloned and characterized cyclotides in viola modesta, a viola species native to western asia, which was collected fro...

This paper examined the relationship between HRM practices and organiza-tional culture in private sector organizations operating in India. Organizational culture hasdeveloped in the Indian environment along with global work values. This study is based ona survey of 95 respondents working in two private sector organizations. Although the HRMpractices in these organizations differ...

It is shown that the cross-helicity effect facilitates rapid growth of the large scale magnetic field in young galaxies. This field then acts as a seed for the standard αΩ-type dynamo at later stages. This mechanism may be responsible for the relatively strong magnetic fields observed in young high redshift galaxies.

This paper presents experimental tests of several independence conditions implied by expected utility and alternative models. We perform repeated choice experiments and fit an error model that allows us to discriminate between true violations of independence and those that can be attributed to errors. In order to investigate the role of event splitting effects, we present each choice problem no...

Cross-border venture capital investing has increased dramatically over the last two decades. Previous research has shown that foreign venture capitalists tend to partner with local venture capitalists as a strategy for offsetting information asymmetries and liabilities of foreignness. This paper examines the choice of co-investors by foreign venture capitalists investing in the Chinese market. ...

Human Resources Management (HRM) is the strategic management of the employees, who individually and collectively contribute to the achievement of the strategic goals of an organization. Many HRM tasks are based on locating and matching individuals to positions. In this paper we present an ontology-based hybrid approach to effectively match job seekers and job postings. The approach uses a deduc...

Results: Women reported deciding how many children they ideally wanted at a younger age than men, being more committed to that number, and having given it more careful thought. Women also wanted to have their first child at a younger age than men, although men wanted marginally more offspring overall. Participants who used birth control wanted fewer children than those who did not. There were f...

This article examines what we know about how low-income fathers matter for children. We first provide a theoretical background about how parents generally (and fathers more specifically) are expected to influence children’s development and well-being. We note the importance of considering differences across children’s age, gender, and race/ethnicity, and we identify key methodological challenge...

Background: Genetic analysis in mice has lead to find about maternal effect genes such as Filia. Filia knock out mice have a 50% decrease in fertility. Filia dysfunction causes disorders in pre-implantation development. Mutations in human Filia gene, cause FBHM (Familial Biparental Hydatidiform Mole) in women. Filia protein in mice is homologous to that of rat and human, so this idea has emerge...
