In this work, the structural, elastic, electronic, thermodynamic, optical, and thermoelectric properties of cubic phase SnTiO3 employing first-principles calculation are examined. The calculations all parameters via various potentials such as LDA, PBE-GGA, WC-GGA, PBEsol-GGA, mBJ-GGA, nmBJ-GGA, HSE performed. computed band structure yields an indirect bandgap 1.88 eV with approach. optical have...

The detailed mesoscale climatology of surface winds in the Chukchi–Beaufort Seas and adjacent Arctic Slope region is analyzed using the recently developed Chukchi–Beaufort High-Resolution Atmospheric Reanalysis (CBHAR).Within the study area, surface winds are mainly driven by the prevailing synoptic weather patterns of the Beaufort high andAleutian low and are further modulated by local geograp...

This paper explores firm growth rate distribution in a Gibrat’s Law context. It is novel in two respects. First, rather than limiting the analysis to a focus on the conditional mean, we investigate the entire shape of the distribution. Second, we show that differences in the firm growth rate process between large and small firms are highly circumstantial and depend on the industry dynamics. The...

Abstract Structural, half-metallic, magneto-optic, and thermoelectric properties of CrTiZ (Z = As, P) half-Heusleres compounds are investigated based on density functional theory. These have mechanical stability in the ferromagnetic state with a high bulk modulus. They often half-metallic large integer magnetic moment very attractive spintronics, magneto-optics applications. The moments CrTiAs ...

We test estimators of the galaxy power spectrum P (k) against simulated galaxy catalogues constructed from N-body simulations and we derive formulae to correct for biases. These estimators are then applied to compute the power spectrum of galaxies in the Stromlo-APM redshift survey. We test whether the amplitude of P (k) depends on galaxy luminosity, but find no significant luminosity dependenc...

We present the results for the galaxy luminosity function as estimated from the Durham/UKST Galaxy Redshift Survey. This survey is magnitude limited to bJ ∼ 17, contains ∼2500 galaxies sampled at a rate of one in three and surveys a ∼4 × 10(hMpc) volume of space. The maximum likelihood parameters for a standard Schechter luminosity function are estimated to be M∗ bJ = −19.72 ± 0.09, α = −1.14±0...

In this study, we have investigated the structural, electronic, and elastic properties of a new series Os2YAl, (Y=Sc, Ti, V) alloys called "Full Heusler", based on Wien2k code using functional density theory (DFT). The exchange correlation energy are evaluated as part LDA approximation. results showed that Os2VAl was more stable harder than Os2ScAl, Os2TiAl. electronic band structures states (D...
