The first lecture provides an introduction to the physics of color superconductivity in cold dense quark matter. The main color superconducting phases are briefly described and their properties are listed. The second lecture covers recent developments in studies of color superconducting phases in neutral and β-equilibrated matter. The properties of gapless color superconducting phases are discu...

INTRODUCTION Previous research has found that the percentage of US adults with diabetes achieving a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) target of <7.0% with currently available treatments has been fairly constant from 2003 to 2010, remaining at just over 50% [1]. The objective of this study was to compare the most recent data (2011-2014) with earlier data to track progress on HbA1c target achievement, ...

The emergence of crowdsourcing has enabled workforce seekers to delegate various tasks to the unknown public to accomplish. Crowdsourcing serves in Software development where projects often fail due to the inability to find and allocate expertise. In cloud application (i.e. Software as Service – [SaaS]) development, projects severely suffer from shortage of expert developers due to its recent a...

OBJECTIVE The main objective of the study was to investigate the role of C-reactive protein on the relationship between Bisphenol A & Cardiovascular Disease, where the C-reactive protein has been taken as a moderating variable. METHODS Quantitative research design has been incorporated for evaluating the role of C-reactive protein. Similarly, non-parametric Spearman correlation test has been ...

Web-Based VR Technology So-Yeon Yoon, Ph.D. & Ji Young Cho University of Missouri, Columbia ABSTRACT PURPOSE AND CONTEXT This research is a web-based investigation utilizing advanced computer/network technology in order to understand factors considered for furniture purchase and furniture style preference. In interior design, specifically for residential environments, furniture has significant ...

In this paper we discuss about tenacity and its properties in stability calculation. We indicate relationships between tenacity and connectivity, tenacity and binding number, tenacity and toughness. We also give good lower and upper bounds for tenacity. Since we are primarily interested in the case where disruption of the graph is caused by the removal of a vertex or vertices (and the resulting...
