It shortly
described a far from being completed history of quantum mechanics—quantum theory of
measurements. Furthermore, there was a relatively recently finished chapter of
quantum mechanics which for a long time had not been resolved. This chapter is
dedicated to time as a quantum observable, canonically conjugated to energy.
And the mathematical reasons for its principal resolving are explained.

In spite of newer evolutions in the medical management of benign
prostatic enlargement, surgery still continues to be an important modality. A
prospective randomized controlled trial study conducted on 50 patients of
benign prostate enlargement who were admitted inward from June 2007 to March 2010.
Patients with diabetes mellitus or pre-existing epididymoorchitis were excluded
from the study. All these patients were planned for prostatectomy (modified
Freyer’s/TURP) with NSV (study group) or wit...

This current paper
discusses an application of the aerial radiometric method in the Itaboraí Region,
located in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Radiometric data acquired by aircraft
registered in counts per second of potassium, thorium and uranium channels were
processed generating radiometric maps of the entire region. The generated maps
provide important information regarding the superficial geology. At last, all
the radiometric information gained is correlated with geological and
topographical ...

The article highlights the results of a study carried out to understand
the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) response to the second most important fibre
crop of India i.e. Jute at C and L
band frequency and at multiple polarizations. Methodology has been well
established to classify jute crop using 3-date multitemporal HH SAR data and is
being used for national level forecast in India. Performance comparison of
single polarization (HH) multi-date versus dual-polarization 2-date data from
Ra...

This study investigated job satisfaction and organisational commitment
among library staff in private universities in Ogun State, Nigeria. The survey
research design was used for the study. Study population consisted of 162
library personnel in seven private university libraries. Sampling was
enumerative as all members of the population were used for the study. A
questionnaire titled “Job Satisfaction and Organisational Commitment (JSOC)”
was used for data collection. Data collected were analyse...

The study investigated the major constraints faced by women rice farmers
in Nigeria. The study employed a survey research design. One hundred women rice
farmers were randomly selected and information were obtained with the aid of
well-structured questionnaire. The frequency, percentage, t-test and regression
analysis were used to analyze data obtained. The study revealed that, only 26%
had negative productivity, 53% had positive productivity, few (31%) had a
positive profit of above 100,000 Nair...

There is a growing need to identify the most appropriate mechanisms through which to stimulate economic activity across a broad range of economic sectors in rural areas. One strategy is to use small towns as “sub-poles” in rural economic development but the effectiveness of such a strategy depends not only on the size of the various multipliers but their spatial distribution. The spatial economic data from small town that were used to measure the strength of economic integration between town and...

To evaluate the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) a-b-c microsatellite
polymorphism in South Tunisia, we studied 123 healthy unrelated controls from
South Tunisia. TNF microsatellite alleles were typed using genomic DNA amplified
with specific primers. Statistical analyses were performed using ARLEQUIN software. The TNFa6 (18.9%),
TNFa2 (16.4%), TNFb5 (41.9%), and TNFc1 (68.7%) were the most frequent alleles in our population, whereas the TNFa8 and
TNFb2 were the least frequent alleles. To investigate...

Introduction: Neonatal mortality is an obstacle to the continued step down of under-five mortality and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goal four. In Ethiopia, the neonatal mortality rate is decreased from 49 in 2000 to 39 deaths per 1000 live births in 2005, remaining stable at 37 deaths per 1000 live births in 2011 accounting for about 42% of under-five mortality. The aim of the study was to identify determinants of neonatal mortality in Ethiopia. Methods: Unmatched case-control st...

Contemporary scientific view of micro- and
macro-world was built on a chain of successive hypotheses, each link of which
has no reliable evidence. The examples of scientific concepts “Big Bang” and “neutrino”
show the formation of erroneous hypotheses that lead to the emergence of these
concepts. In addition, the accepted hypotheses lead to the emergence of new
objects of scientific vision of the world, which in the real world are absent.
The paper proves the fallacy of hypotheses about the depe...
