Using the Bethe-Salpeter (B-S) equations for heavy baryons ΛQ, ΣQ, ΞQ and ΩQ (Q = b or c), which were established in previous work, we calculate the heavy quark distribution functions in these baryons. The numerical results indicate that these distribution functions have an obvious peak at some fraction, α0, of the baryon’s light-cone “plus” momentum component carried by the heavy quark, and th...

background: heavy metals tend to bioaccumulate in living organisms, and their accumulation has been a major concern. as mammals are known to excrete heavy metals via their bile, it seems to be very promising to analyse metal burdens of par-asites that infect the biliary tree such as liver flukes of the genus fasciola . the pre-sent study was carried out to evaluate f. hepatica and f. gigantica ...

heavy metals entrance to fish body tissues and transferring to human body systems after their consuming makes numerous undesirable effects and health problems. the aim of this study was to determine some heavy metals (lead, cadmium and mercury) in fresh fishes marketed in khorramabad city, west of iran. in this descriptive study, five samples of 17 fish species with high consumption were purcha...

Calculations of the heavy-heavy spectrum present a good opportunity for precision tests of QCD using lattice techniques. All methods make use of a non-relativistic expansion of the action and its systematic improvement to remove lattice artefacts. There was convincing demonstration this year that these methods work and that the associated perturbation theory is well-behaved. Comparison to exper...

Nanotechnology has the potential to introduce revolutionary changes to several areas of oil and gas industry such as exploration, production, enhanced oil recovery, and refining. In this paper, the effect of different concentrations of Fe2O3 nanoparticles as a catalyst on the heavy oil viscosity at various temperatures is studied. Furthermore, the effect of a mixture of Fe2O3 nanoparticles and ...

the objective of this study was to explore the application of hybrid artificial neural network methods to predict heavy metals in rainwater based on major elements. measurements of the heavy metals pb, cu, zn, as, ni, hg, and fe in soluble rain fractions were performed in rainwater collected at the arak plain during the rainy seasons of 2012. in the soluble fractions, the concentrations of the ...

background: in the current study,the hazard quotient, the hazard index (hi) and spatial variations of fe,mn,cu and cr in drinking water sources of andimesk-shush, khuzestan province, southern iranaquifer were assessed. methods: we compared theconcentrations of aforementioned heavy metals in wells and springs inandimeshk and shush regions. the non-carcinogenic risk assessment of heavy metals was...

heavy metal pollution all around the world has become a major environmental concern and the bioremediation of polluted environments is an increasingly popular strategy due to both its efficiency and safety. in this study, a bacterial strain resistant to heavy metal was isolated from metal contaminated sites. strain mkh2 was removed pb (ii) with 95.06%. this isolate was also resistant to zinc, c...
