We study the fusion reaction of light systems with one-dimensional barrier penetration model using the α-α double-folding cluster (DFC) potential. We especially analyze the fusion cross sections of the 12C + 12C, 16O, 24Mg, 28Si, 16O + 16O, 24Mg + 24Mg, 28Si, and 28Si + 28Si reactions. The results are compared with the one obtained with M3Y doubl

Halal Pharmaceutical product has recently captured the attention of the consumer which makes it to be one of the important products sought by the consumer. The right to information requires the halal pharmaceutical to be attached with information that can ensure its halal status. This is in line with upholding the right to information for the consu

Background: Sapium indicum Willd (Euphorbiaceae) is traditionally used to accelerate wound healing process in Malay community. Objective: To evaluate wound healing potential of aqueous (AESI) and ethanolic extract of S. indicum leaves (EESI) using cell migration model. Methods: AESI and EESI were prepared using maceration techniques. The extracts w

In order to survive in a competitive environment, industries are required to adopt strategies that ensure their abilities to provide their customers with a product featured by good quality, low cost and short delivery time. Short term scheduling plays a pivotal role in this context by ensuring the operations to be executed and monitored in an optim

The world is in an ongoing energy crisis. Fossil fuel reserves are in critical condition and the environment is being bombarded with all kinds of pollution. Therefore, it is easy to see why any technology that brings solutions to these problems is considered to be a bounty. Among the solutions is compressed air driven machine technology. This solut

Islamic banking in Mauritius is a very new industry introduced only in late 2007. Mauritius is a secular country with mostly people from Hinduism faith and only around twenty percent are Muslims. In such an environment, Islamic bankers would need to know whether the Mauritian population is willing to accept this new form of banking. This study atte

Background: This study aims to determine if continuous infusion (CI) of beta-lactam antibiotics achieves the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) targets for time-dependent bacterial killing and/or are associated with improved clinical outcomes compared to intermittent bolus (IB) dosing in critically ill patients with severe sepsis. Methods: Thi

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) has long been laden with tension and instability. However, the recent Arab Uprisings, better known as the Arab Spring, have intensified volatility, turning this “hot-spot” into a veritable tinderbox whose potential for explosion has far-reaching national, regional and global implications. This review anal

A generalized algorithm for a Combined Nonlinear Control and Estimation CNCE process for spacecraft attitude and orbit determination and control is pre-sented. The approach tends to eliminate the delays due to the separation be-tween the estimation and control processes. Also, it minimizes the possibility of control degradation due to estimator div

We discuss the dynamical properties of quantum entanglement and partial entropy for moving three-level atom interacting with single-mode quantized field inside a phase-damped cavity for more general cases. The results show that the atomic motion and decoherence effects play an important role on the evolution of the system dynamics and quantum entan
