A new variational method has been proposed for studying the equilibrium
states of the interacting particle system to have been statistically described
by using the density matrix. This method is used for describing conductivity
electrons and their behavior in metals. The electron energy has been expressed
by means of the density matrix. The interaction energy of two εkk’ electrons dependent on their wave vectors k and k’ has been found. Energy ...

Data on historical evolution of different crop cultivars in seventy years
were further analyzed and big and small cycle of improvement of yield ability,
alternating cycle improvement among number of ear per unit area, seed weight
per ear, light absorption coefficient in community (or plant type), was first
found. Each of big cycle was forty years. First big cycle from 1940 to late
1970, cross breeding was conducted on basis of arrangement and evaluation
of local variety under situation of mainta...

Propolis is a product elaborated by honey bees ( Apis) and comprises plant resins, bee wax, glandular secretions of
the worker bees and pollen grains. Geopropolis is a product elaborated
by stingless bees and comprises similar compounds of honey bees and soil, mud,
clay, earth or sand. The present study intends to distinguish between propolis
and geopropolis using pollen analysis. A total of 12 samples were obtained in
the Southern Brazilian macro-region and processed by standard meli...

Most literatures prefer loan-to-value ratios (LTV) decisions in supply
chain finance (SCF) on the way of profit maximization. This paper attempts to
discuss the relationship between LTV and market risk of the loan in inventory
financing of SCF from the perspective of value at risk (VaR) for the critical
value of LTV corresponding to extreme value of loan VaR to prevent the bank
from the risks caused by LTV decisions under the extreme position of
price-decline in commodity market. Different from ...

The local extension of olfactory groove meningioma into the paranasal
sinuses and nasal cavity eroding underlying bone in young patients is
considered as an unusual and extremely rare event. We report the case of a 25-year-old
female of primary growth of olfactory groove meningioma extension to left ethmoidal
sinus and nasal cavity, presented with sudden onset of seizure after delivering
a baby. Although olfactory groove meningioma can grow to extreme size with
unnoticed symptoms, frequent nasal...

Theory of Reasoned Action was formulated by social psychologist [1]. The theory resulted from attitude research using the Expectancy Value Models. Even though this theory can be applied in studying a number of research cases in Information Systems discourse, it has not been extensively used, and in cases where it has been used, it has mainly set the stage for other theories such as Technology Acceptance Model, Unified Theory of Acceptance and Utilization of Technology and Innovation Diffusion Th...
