Ž . ABSTRACT: The possibility of binding two electrons by the fixed finite dipole FFD potential due to two point charges qqe and yqe separated by the distance R is explored at the full configuration interaction level with extended basis sets. The critical value of the dipole moment m s qR required to bind two electrons tends to infinity for small q Ž . Ž q f 0.91e and decreases precipitously as...

researches show that customers attribute different human characters to products. correspondence of this attribution with the personality of customer could have a critical role in product selection and consequent success of a brand. this article is a descriptive survey on comparison of the brand personality of toshiba with four other famous brands in the it market of iran. all needed data is col...

Background: Hamstring tendons are secondary hip extensors. Their harvest for graft in anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction may create deleterious effect on hip extension strength. This is of particular importance in sportsthat need powerful hip extension force like climbing and sprinting. Due to scarcity of a comprehensive study in thisarea, we designed this prospect...

Studies using linguistic stimuli have provided little support for explicit memory biases among individuals with social phobia (SP). However, using facial stimuli rated on their criticalness, Lundh and Ost (1996) found that individuals with SP recognized more critical than accepting faces, whereas non-anxious controls tended to show the opposite pattern. Since the publication of Lundh and Ost's ...

The challenges of extension education and training in Nigeria are inherent in the nature and characteristics of the extensionist himself, the trainers, training needs and the ability of the training institutions and agencies to develop and deliver appropriate training programmes relevant to the system. The demand for functional pre and post service extension education in Nigeria is deeply roote...

Filopodial motility is critical for many biological processes, particularly for axon guidance. This motility is based on altering the F-actin-based cytoskeleton, but the mechanisms of how this occurs and the actin-associated proteins that function in this process remain unclear. We investigated two of these proteins found in filopodia, talin and vinculin, by inactivating them in subregions of c...

household food security remains a challenge in south africa. the national government instituted the integrated food security strategy (ifss) programme which identifies household agricultural production as an important element of improving household-level food security. agricultural extension is well positioned to help achieve this aim, but its current contribution is unknown. this study identif...

A word is called unbordered, if it has no proper prefix which is also a suffix of that word. Let μ(w) denote the length of the longest unbordered factor of a word w. Let a word where the longest unbordered prefix is equal to μ(w) be called Duval extension. A Duval extension is called trivial, if its longest unbordered factor is of the length of the period of that Duval extension. In 1982 it was...

Critical reflection is integral to the action learning cycle (Kolb 1984) which underpins much present day extension theory. How often, however, do extension programs conduct an impact analysis to formally evaluate achievements against desired outcomes and so gain insights into the effectiveness of different extension strategies used? In 2008, two Integrated Pest Management (IPM) project teams w...

Despite the worldwide popularity and rapid proliferation of social networking sites (SNS), e.g., Facebook, our understanding about what drive people to SNS and how they use them remains limited. This study aims at establishing a theoretical framework guiding the research on SNS usage. Built upon the Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), the framework makes following major extensio...
