A robust valley polarization is a key prerequisite for exploiting valley pseudospin to carry information in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics. Although monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides with inherent spin-valley coupling offer a unique platform to develop such valleytronic devices, the anticipated long-lived valley pseudospin has not been observed yet. Here we demonstrate...

the topheth (in ancient jerusalem), considered as a holly land in canaanites period, it was the altar of human sacrifice in honor of baal. the history of the ritual, human sacrifice and the ceremonies accompanied with, among jewish people returns back to when the land of canaan in jordan valley was occupied by the israelite people leading by joshua (ca.1426 b.c.). on these altars the new born c...

Fatty Acids, α-tocopherol, β-caroten, minerals, and some pomological properties of walnut genotypes from four locations (Iğdır, Tuzluca, Karakoyunlu, Kağızman) of Aras Valley (Eastern Turkey) were examined. In this study, the differences among the genotypes were determined in terms of some fruit characteristics, oil and protein contents, fatty acid composition, selenium content, α-tocophero...

The total suspended particulate (TSP) samples were collected from April 2013 to April 2014 at the urban location of Pokhara valley in western Nepal. The major aims were to study, quantify, and understand the concentrations and variations of TSP and major water-soluble inorganic ions (WSIIs) in the valley with limited data. The annual average TSP mass concentration was 135.50 ̆ 62.91 μg/m3. The a...

a field study was conducted in nine villages, three each from kupwara, handwara and karnah tehsils of kupwara district, to find out the nutritional value of feeds and fodders, existing feeding practices and nutritional status of dairy cattle. data was collected from the fifteen farm families from each of the nine were randomly selected through a common questionnaire. all the farmers were found ...

Introduction: While Amazonian fluvial landforms are not abundant on Mars, remote sensing data have revealed details regarding the role of ice in non-polar regions in the Amazonian. Evidence includes 1) deposits interpreted to be remnants of cold-based glaciers at low-and mid-latitudes [1-6]; 2) mantling deposits interpreted to be a desiccating layer of ground ice [7-8]; 3) laterally-expansive u...

The valley degree of freedom in two-dimensional (2D) crystals recently emerged as a novel information carrier in addition to spin and charge. The intrinsic valley lifetime in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) is expected to be markedly long due to the unique spin-valley locking behavior, where the intervalley scattering of the electron simultaneously requires a large momentum transfer t...

a preliminary palaeomagnetic results from basalt outcrops in northeast lebanon is reported. the remanence carrier of the characteristic magnetisation is magnetite.  both variations of susceptibility and anisotropy directional data show that the measured directions of thermoremanent magnetisation (trm) are representative of the ambient field at the time of cooling of these basalts through their ...
