The x-ray emission with the single crystal of lithium niobate (LiNbO3) or lithium tantalite (LiTaO3) by thermal changes in a vacuum system is closely concerned with the electronic state of each crystal. Therefore, lithium Kedge x-ray absorption near edge structures (XANES) spectra of these materials were measured in the region from 50 eV to 90 eV by means of total electron yield method (T.E.Y.)...

Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) provide a high-yield method for producing hydrogen from renewable biomass. One challenge for commercialization of the technology is a lowcost and highly efficient cathode. Stainless steel (SS) is very inexpensive, and cathodes made of this material with high specific surface areas can achieve performance similar to carbon cathodes containing a platinum cataly...

Just as a traditional continuation represents the rest of a computation from a given point in the computation, a subcontinuation represents the rest of a subcomputation from a given point in the subcomputation. Subcontinuations are more expressive than traditional continuations and have been shown to be useful for controlling tree-structured concurrency, yet they have previously been implemente...

abstract supplementary irrigation for suitable crops production in most area of iran is necessary. in order to study supplementary irrigation effects on yield and yield components of three lentil (lens culinaris medik.) cultivars, an experiment was carried out as split block based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research field, college of agriculture, ferdowsi uni...

abstract cumin (cuminum cyminum) is one of the most important medicinal plants in iranian dry region. in order to study the effects of irrigation times and salinity stress on yield and yield components of cumin, an experiment was conducted at the research farm ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2009. factors including irrigation times (1: one time irrigation, 2: two times irrigation 3: three tim...

the present study evaluated the effects of different dosages herbicides oxyfluorfen and trifluralin on crop properties of garlic, including plant height, number of cloves per bulbs as well as economical and biological yield of garlic. in this research, a randomized complete block design, with seven treatments and three replications, along with a control sample (weeding and no weed control), was...

plant growth regulators (pgrs) are widely used for lodging control in winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.) grown at high n rates. although the introduction of semi-dwarf wheat cultivars had largely solved the problem of lodging, evidence was already accumu-lating that the timely application of a growth retardant such as chlormequat (ccc) or ethephon could increase the grain yield of wheat, by th...

background & aim: the genus satureja belonging to the family of lamiaceae and consists of over 235 different species throughout the world. fourteen species grow naturally in iran of which eleven species are endemic. different species of satureja are used in food, healthy, cosmetic and medical industry. this reseach has been carried due to selection and introduction of suitable germplasm in ...

the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic and phenotypic parameters of milk production traits in the first and second lactations of romanian simmental dairy cattle. for the estimation of variance, heritability, genetic and phenotypic correlations among milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, and percentages of fat and protein, 3400 first and second lactation records over a period of fi...
