A holographic origin of missing mass and extremely high value of Einstein’s
cosmological constant Λ ~ 10122 in quantum cosmology, compared to observational data 0 ≤ Λ ≤ 1, is
sought and related to extremely large relativistic mass defect of gravitional
semiclosure of Friedman universe joined to an asymptotically flat outer space.

This paper reviews the attitude of undergraduate to extension education
and possible job opportunities influencing career direction in agricultural
extension. It examined awareness level of undergraduates as well as social
factors that influence prospective undergraduates in the field. Stratified
random sampling techniques was used to drawn one hundred (100) students of Agricultural
Extension (AE) and Agricultural Related (AR) courses in School of Agriculture,
Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu to...

The focus of this paper is more on children’s academic outcome when challenges like divorce occur in the home, and the emphasis is on children in secondary school level of education in Nigeria which are usually children aged 11 to 16 years. The primary environment of the child is the home and this can exert tremendous impact on students’ achievement. The home is the primary agent of education, thus, the way the child lives, the food he/she eats and his/her life style are influenced by the home. ...

Abnormal application behavior in mobile can produce a number of
undesirable effects. An incorrect or insufficient implementation of application
lifecycle, memory related issues and malicious application might cause an
unexpected behavior of the application such as bad usability, not responding,
crashed and even data loss. Current analysis and detection of abnormal
applications behavior are still not comprehensive enough where behavior under
user visible failure category such as crash, “stopped u...

This paper focuses on the ionospheric anomalies observed in the F2 layer
at Tortosa in Ebre Observatory (40.8°N, 0.49°E), before and after a seismic
event in Morocco (Agadir). The data on optimal frequency of F2 layer (f0F2)
were acquired using ground based ionosonde. The median- based statistical
technique was applied to the data to examine the possible relationship between
the earthquake displacement field and the variation of the f0F2 in the
ionosphere. The results point to a variation charac...

The present study investigated the effect of cooperative learning
strategies on Iranian intermediate students’ writing achievement. The
researchers selected 83 English students in Khorasgan Islamic Azad University.
The researcher assigned Oxford Placement Test by [1] test with 100 multiple choice questions as the homogeneity test and
selected 60 students and divided them equally as the experimental and control
groups to teach them how to write TOEFL es...

This study appraised the awareness and willingness
of faculty staff in Nigerian universities to deposit
their pre and post research publications in open access institutional
repository. Two universities (one private and one public) were
systematically selected for the study. Nigeria has a total of 129 universities; 79 are public universities,
while 50 are private universities. The researcher purposefully selected
two universities from the public and private for convenience and easy analysis.
The...

Simple mathematical model of gene expression has been studied thoroughly
in this paper. We assume that protein synthesis and protein decay are
deterministic in nature whereas transition from active to inactive state is
totally stochastic. The probability distribution function of transcript number
is calculated and evidence of binary and graded response has been observed for
different reaction rates. Slow and fast kinetics have been studied explicitly.
Different rate constants play a significant ...

A new more exact formula, than that recently published (Apeiron, Vol. 18,
No 2 (2011)), for Shadow-Gravity force, for any distances between fundamental
sub-particles, including very short ones when gravitation becomes strong, is
developed. It is found also that, in fundamental contrast to Darwin’s conclusion,
the gravitation effect is performed at the
expense of elastic collisions of fations with fundamental sub-particles,
and thus the well known basic objection against the shadow- gravit...

In this paper, a
Lattice Boltzmann method was used to simulate the flow of temperature-sensitive
magnetic fluids in a micro porous cavity. According to Navier’s linear slip
length model, slip boundary conditions were used on all the walls of the micro
porous cavity. The effects of the horizontal slip length and the vertical slip
length on the flow and heat transfer characteristics were investigated. The results
showed that with the increase of the slip length, the velocities and their
gradients ...
