On Some Inequalities Concerning Rate of Growth of Polynomials

In this paper we consider a class of polynomials P(z) = a0+∑n v=t a v z v, t ≥ 1not vanishing in |z|k, k≥1 and investigate the dependence of max|z|=1|P(Rz)-P(rz)on max|z|=1|P(z)|, where 1 ≤ r R. Our result generalizes and refines some know polynomial inequalities.     

Numerical simulation of a Gaussian beam profile passing through a Kerr medium

The circular Gaussian beam shape has been simulated by numerical evaluation on beam shape based on z-scan method through beam radius. This method is useful in many studies such as z-scan experiments. The validity of the relation between peak and valley separation in close aperture data and the diffraction length of the beam has been investigated by this method for some real cases. The results are in good agreement with the experimental studies.     

Comments on “Natural frequencies of a uniform cantilever with a tip mass slender in the axial direction”

Using a power series expansion for the roots of the characteristic equation, the natural frequencies of a cantilevered Euler–Bernoulli beam with an end rigid mass are computed. Results are obtained for a range of center of mass offsets from the end of the beam. The results of current study corrects significant errors in the previous work by Rama Bhat and Wagner (1976).     

Generalization of Some Algebras in the Bosonic String Theory

We assume that the total target phase space is non-commutative. This leads to the generalization of the oscillator-algebra of the string, and the corresponding Virasoso algebra. The effects of this non-commutativity on some string states will be studied.     

带鳍通道性能的遗传算法优化

与光滑通道相比,带鳍通道有更高的传热系数,附加的鳍,极大地增强了通道的传热.然而,传热的增强又与压降的升高相关联,这又导致泵动力需求的增加,因此应该寻求对该系统的优化设计.该文的主要目的是,通过如下方式来精确地确定鳍的位置和尺寸:利用遗传算法实现最小压降时达到最优传热.鳍的每种布局作为问题(遗传算法中的一个个体)的一个解.通常,首先随机地产生一个初始种群,然后该算法在所有这些解中搜索,利用布局函数迭代出新解,最后得到鳍的优化设计.     

Treated Rice Bran for Scavenging Cr(III) and Hg(II) from Acidic Solution

The purpose of this study was to examine the efficiency with which rice bran (treated or untreated) removes heavy metals, especially Cr(III) and Hg(II), from acidic solution. Sorption assays were done in shaken flasks in the presence of rice bran. Different experimental conditions such as pH, volume of solution, bran weight, particle size, exchange time and stirring time were improved. The efficiency of bran was studied before and after treatments. For treatment, solutions of acid, alkali and salt were used. The results show that after treating with 4 M sodium chloride solution, its efficiency in removal of Cr(III) and Hg(II) was improved. Kinetic measurements of chromium and mercury removal by bran have revealed that sorption equilibrium was obtained after 10 min of contact. Sorption experiments done with various granulometric fractions of rice bran have shown that this sorbent has the same efficiencies in meshes higher than 20. Further research is necessary in order to determine a mechanism for cations removal by the bran. It is mentioned that the process of making polished rice from brown rice discharges rice bran; therefore, it is very inexpensive, with a cost of 1/50 ? 1/40 of that of synthetic sorbent, and thus its use would significantly lower the cost of wastewater treatment.     

Measurement of branching fractions and mass spectra of B-->Kpipigamma

We present a measurement of the partial branching fractions and mass spectra of the exclusive radiative penguin processes B-->Kpipigamma in the range m(Kpipi)<1.8 GeV/c(2). We reconstruct four final states: K(+)pi(-)pi(+)gamma, K(+)pi(-)pi(0)gamma, K(S)(0)pi(-)pi(+)gamma, and K(S)(0)pi(+)pi(0)gamma, where K(S)(0)-->pi(+)pi(-). Using 232 x 10(6) e(+)e(-)-->BB events recorded by the BABAR experiment at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy storage ring, we measure the branching fractions B(B(+)-->K(+)pi(-)pi(+)gamma)=[2.95+/-0.13(stat)+/-0.20(syst)] x 10(-5), B(B(0)-->K(+)pi(-)pi(0)gamma)=[4.07+/-0.22(stat)+/-0.31(syst)] x 10(-5), B(B(0)-->K(0)pi(+)pi(-)gamma)=[1.85+/-0.21(stat)+/-0.12(syst)] x 10(-5), and B(B(+)-->K(0)pi(+)pi(0)gamma)=[4.56+/-0.42(stat)+/-0.31(syst)] x 10(-5).     

Observation of B Meson decays to b1pi and b1K

We present the results of searches for decays of B mesons to final states with a b1 meson and a charged pion or kaon. The data, collected with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, represent 382x10(6) BB[over ] pairs produced in e+e- annihilation. The results for the branching fractions are, in units of 10(-6), B(B+-->b1(0)pi+)=6.7+/-1.7+/-1.0, B(B+-->b1(0)K+)=9.1+/-1.7+/-1.0, B(B0-->b1(-/+)pi(+/-))=10.9+/-1.2+/-0.9, and B(B0-->b1(-)K+)=7.4+/-1.0+/-1.0, with the assumption that B(b1-->omega pi)=1. We also measure charge and flavor asymmetries A(ch)(B+-->b1(0)pi+)=0.05+/-0.16+/-0.02, Ach(B+-->b1(0)K+)=-0.46+/-0.20+/-0.02, A(ch)(B0-->b1(-/+)pi(+/-))=-0.05+/-0.10+/-0.02, C(B0-->b1(-/+)pi(+/-))=-0.22+/-0.23+/-0.05, DeltaC(B0-->b1(-/+)pi(+/-))=-1.04+/-0.23+/-0.08, and A(ch)(B0-->b1(-)K+)=-0.07+/-0.12+/-0.02. The first error quoted is statistical, and the second systematic.
