Neutrino oscillograms of the Earth are contours of constant oscillation or survival probabilities in the plane of neutrino energy and nadir or zenith angle of neutrino trajectory. They encode information on both the neutrino parameters and the Earth density profile and proved to be a very useful and illuminating tool for analyzing neutrino oscillations in the Earth. The oscillograms exhibit a v...

The structural and electronic properties of C24-2nBn Nn and M@ C24-2nBn Nn (M= alkaline and earth alkaline metals; n=3 and 6) molecules are studied using the Density Functional Theory (DFT). It was found that the most interaction is in M@ C24-2nBn Nn complexes (M=Be, Mg; n=3 and 6). The negative nucleus-independent chemical shifts confirm that C24-2nBn Nn (n=3 and 6) cages exhibit aromatic char...

The aqueous solution behavior of some rare-earth chlorides has been investigated at 25° C. in the concentration range between 0.02 molal and saturation. Density measurements on solutions of lanthanum, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, dysprosium, erbium, and ytterbium chlorides were carried out by a pycnometric method with an estimated accuracy of 1 x 10-5 gm.per ml. From the density data the ap...

We present an exact analytic solution to the neutrino evolution equation in matter with periodic step-function density profile and discuss in detail the parametric resonance of neutrino oscillations that can occur in such a system. Solar and atmospheric neutrinos traversing the earth pass through layers of alternating density and can therefore experience parametric resonance of their oscillatio...

The Theme: Due to environmental and energy concerns, electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are gaining increased attention. At the heart of the drive system of these vehicles is the electric machine and drive. For these applications, high power density, high torque density, wide speed range, and efficiency are of primary importance. To meet these demands, interior permanen...

Circumterrestrial Lyman-α column brightness observations above 3 Earth radii (Re) have been used to derive separate 3-D neutral hydrogen density models of the Earth’s exosphere for solar minimum (2008, 2010) and near-solarmaximum (2012) conditions. The data used were measured by Lyman-α detectors (LAD1/2) onboard each of the TWINS satellites from very different orbital positions with respect to...
