Canul-Chay et al. [1] have conducted the segregation experiment of binary granular mixtures in a bed and subjected the bed to vibration. They report that the reverse Brazil-Nut phenomenon (RBNP) was never observed in their experiments and thus conclude that such does not exist. However, we have clearly demonstrated in [2] by Molecular Dynamics simulations that the reverse Brazil-Nut problem not...

CONTEXT In modern phytotherapy, Stachys lavandulifolia Vahl., a type of Stachys also known as Mountain Tea (Chay-e-Kouhi) has been widely studied based on its botanical and therapeutic characteristics over the recent decades. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION The present study investigated morphology, botanical characteristics, and some therapeutic activities of this plant and compares them with those of ...

conclusions the achieved findings from this comparison between botanical characteristics and therapeutic activities of stachys based on modern researches and those of marmazad by referring to traditional manuscripts revealed significant similarities between them. also, there were some applications mentioned for marmazad in tim which could help new researchers in modern phytotherapy to deal with...

A recent calculation by Chay and Rey has shown that instantons may make a significant contribution to the lepton energy spectrum near its endpoint. Using an ansatz borrowed from the study of high energy baryon number violating processes, we investigate whether these corrections could spoil the relation between the nonperturbative contributions to this spectrum and to the photon energy spectrum ...
