Aims. We study the visibility of sunspots and its influence on observed values of sunspot region parameters. Methods. We use Virtual Observatory tools provided by AstroGrid to analyse a sample of 6862 sunspot regions. By studying the distributions of locations where sunspots were first and last observed on the solar disk, we derive the visibility function of sunspots, the rate of magnetic flux ...

Observatory (iSERVO; www.iservo. edu.au) is a planned partnership of primarily Asia Pacific economies interested in studying, forecasting, and mitigating the damaging effects of large and great earthquakes as well as the tsunamis they produce. The iSERVO concept is founded on the use of modern information technology to simulate the nonlinear dynamical earthquake and tsunami processes at all rel...

A virtual observatory will not only enhance many current scientific investigations, but it will also enable entirely new scientific explorations due to both the federation of vast amounts of multiwavelength data and the new archival services which will, as a necessity, be developed. The detailing of specific science use cases is important in order to properly facilitate the development of the n...

This prospective study was carried in Mahila Chikitsalya and State Zenana Hospital attached to S.M.S. Medical College, Jaipur, between October 1992 to March 1993. Live born male babies delivered during this period were examined for the presence of epstein pearls on the prepuce. Prepucial epstein pearl was cleaned with cotton swab to remove any smegma, which might mimic epstein pearl. Then its s...

Since the start of ultra-relativistic heavy ion experimentation, some 10 years ago at the Brookhaven AGS and the CERN SPS, it has rarely been as gratifying to open a conference in this eld as it is in Jaipur for this 3rd International Conference on Physics and Astrophysics of the Quark-Gluon-Plasma. The advent of a new generation of detectors, and most important, the availability of really heav...

Energy powers the world's economic engine and there exists a very strong relationship between the quantity of energy used and the development of the economy. It is true that the continuous increase in the per capita consumption of power from 176 KWh in 198081 to 1000 KWh in 2011-2012 is considered to be an effective indicator of growth, However this ever increasing consumption has negative impa...

Astronomy is one of the most data-intensive of the sciences. Data technology is accelerating the quality and effectiveness of its research, and the rate of astronomical discovery is higher than ever. As a result, many view astronomy as being in a “Golden Age”, and projects such as the Virtual Observatory are amongst the most ambitious data projects in any field of science. But these powerful to...

A study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of malocclusion in Jaipur city, India. A total of 700 subjects, in the age group of 16-26 years were divided into five groups of normal occlusion, Angle's Class I, Class II Div 1, Class II Div 2 and Class III malocclusion. The results revealed that the prevalence of malocclusion was 66.3%, with the majority of them having Class I malocclusion (...
