We combined soft x-ray reflectivity and x-ray standing wave enhanced fluorescence to study the optical performance and the thermal induced interface behaviour of Co/Mo2C nanometric multilayers, designed to work in the soft x-ray range close to the Co L3 absorption edge. Grazing x-ray reflectivity measurements were performed at 0.154 nm (Cu Kα line) and at two wavelengths in the soft x-ray range...

The modeling of the spectral behavior of the refractive indices of the binary, ternary and quaternary III-V semiconductor alloys in the energy range from 0.2 to 4eV, including the transparent region, is presented. The extended model of interband transition contributions incorporates not only the fundamental absorption edge contribution to the dielectric function, but also contributions from hig...

One of the challenges still pending in string theory and other particle physics related fields is the accurate prediction of the masses of the elementary particles defined in the standard model. In this paper an original algorithm to assign graphs to each of these particles is proposed. Based on this mapping, we demonstrate that certain indices associated with the topology of the graph (graph t...

A edge 2-rainbow dominating function (E2RDF) of a graph G is a ‎function f from the edge set E(G) to the set of all subsets‎ ‎of the set {1,2} such that for any edge.......................

the evaluation of the edge effects of forest roads on ecosystem is very useful to understand changes from forest road. with this regard, in this research the effect of main forest road construction on regeneration and biodiversity of established trees in edge of forest road was investigated at 35 m distance into forest area. an existing 10 years old road segment, with same physiographic propert...

Many algorithms have been developed for the remote estimation of vegetation fraction in terms of combinations of spectral bands, derivatives of reflectance spectra, neural networks, inversion of radiative transfer models, and several multi-spectral statistical approaches. The most widespread type of algorithm used is the mathematical combination of visible and near-infrared reflectance, in the ...

We propose a novel image interpolation method for resolution enhancement of still images. The approach consists of a nonlinear mapping from pixel index space to color space based on the low-resolution image so that non-integral pixel indices in a super-sampling can be mapped to colors, i.e., interpolated. This nonlinear mapping is based on an extensor transformation of 2D pixel indices to an N-...

Let G and H be connected graphs. The tensor product G + H is a graph with vertex set V(G+H) = V (G)  V(H) and edge set E(G + H) ={(a , b)(x , y)| ax ∈ E(G) & by ∈ E(H)}. The graph H is called the strongly triangular if for every vertex u and v there exists a vertex w adjacent to both of them. In this article the tensor product of G + H under some distancebased topological indices are investiga...

This is the first paper presenting our long-term project aimed at studying the nature of bulges through analyzing their stellar population gradients. We present deep spectroscopic observations along the minor axis and the data reduction for a sample of 32 bulges of edge-on spiral galaxies. We explain in detail our procedures for measuring their dynamical parameters (rotation curves and velocity...

The expensive and time-consuming process of drug lead discovery is significantly accelerated by efficiently screening molecular libraries with a high structural diversity and selecting subsets of molecules according to their similarity toward specific collections of active compounds. To characterize the molecular similarity/diversity or to quantify the drug-like character of compounds the proce...
