This thesis investigates why there is still no ‘final’ physical theory of the universe despite the enormous resources involved. Current physical and philosophical methodologies are examined leading to a new strategy. The ...

Modern memory devices such as static random-access memory (SRAM), dynamic random-access (DRAM), and Flash memories demonstrated inevitable limitations, i.e., large cell size (50 − 120 F2) of SRAM, accompanied by current ...

Supercapacitors are promising energy storage devices which fill the gap between conventional capacitors and batteries. They possess several advantages compared to the latter such as safe operation, superior capacitance ...

In this research work, metal-doped MoS2 of Cobalt and Manganese (Co-MoS2 and Mn-MoS2) nanocomposites of different ratios of dopant concentrations were synthesized with a facile hydrothermal technique. The samples were ...

Abstract The contamination of environmental waters with heavy metals and radionuclides is increasing because of rapid industrial and population growth. The removal of these contaminants from water via ...

We investigated the breakup dynamics of the 8B + 208Pb, 11Be + 64Zn, 11Be + 208Pb, 37Mg + 208Pb, 15C + 208Pb, 6Li + 209Bi reactions using the continuum discretized coupled channels (CDCC) method. Additionally, we ...

The physics of loosely-bound and halo nuclei is very important in the enhancement of knowledge about the complete nature of strong interactions in general, and nuclear forces in particular. Although such nuclei are widely ...

In this work we analyse fusion cross-section (σF ) in different projectile target systems. Collision systems can result in different reactions such as elastic/ inelastic scattering, fu sion and fission reactions to name ...

Rural and urban learners from primary and secondary schools participate in science fairs all over the world, but their performance differs. To investigate the dynamics influencing the performance of rural and urban learners ...

The development of cost-effective and scalable synthetic methods is of paramount importance to achieve industrial application of energy conversion and storage devices based on layered double hydroxides (LDH). Herein, ...
