  • In this paper, our central focus is upon gamma and beta q-distributions from a probabilistic viewpoint. The gamma and the beta q-distributions are characterized by investing the nature of the joint q-probability density function through the q-independence property and the q-Laplace transform.

  • The effect of gamma-irradiation sterilization on molecular structural changes in orthopaedic surgical-grade polyethylene was studied. The relative crystallinity ud. percent crosslinking of the substance increased as a result of the gamma irradiation and varied anisotropically as a function of depth. Samples from the articulating surfaces showed 5% Venter relative crystallinity than those from the mid-sections, whereas samples from the mid-sections exhibited 15% greater crosslinking than those from the surfaces. These anisotropic variations are discussed in assDciation with oxidation.

  • The secondary electron emission coefficient (${\gamma}$) of the cathode is an important factor for improving the discharge characteristics of AC-PDP, because of its close relationship to discharge voltage. In this experiment, we have investigated the electronic structure of the energy band in the MgO layer responsible for the high ${\gamma}$. We used three kinds of MgO pellet that have another component, and each MgO layers have been deposited by electron beam evaporation method. The work-functions of MgO layer have been investigated from their ion-induced secondary electron emission coefficient (${\gamma}$), respectively, using various ions with different ionization energies in a ${\gamma}-FIB$ (Focused Ion Beam) system. We have compared work-function with ${\gamma}-FIB$ system current signal for measurement defect energy level in MgO layer. MgO-A in the three types has lowest work-function value (4.12eV) and there are two defect energy levels.

  • In this work, self-absorption correction factor related to the variation of the composition and the density of soil samples were evaluated using the p-type HPGe detector. The validated MCNP5 simulation model of this detector was used to evaluate its Full Energy Peak Efficiency (FEPE) under the variation of the composition and the density of the analysed samples. The results indicates that FEPE calculation of low gamma ray is affected by the composition and the density of soil samples. The self-absorption correction factors for different gamma-ray energies which was fitted as a function of FEPEs via density and energy and fitting parameters as polynomial function for the logarithm neper of gamma ray energy help to calculate quickly the detection efficiency of detector. Factor Analysis for the influence of the element composition in analysed samples on the FEPE indicates the FEPE distribution changes from non-metal to metal groups when the gamma ray energy increases from 92 keV to 238 keV. At energies above 238 keV, the FEPE primarily depends only on the metal elements and is significantly affected by aluminium and silicon composition in soil samples.

  • Developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are composed of mature venous vessels that lack malformed or neoplastic elements. Although the hemorrhage risk is considered negligible, some patients may have neurological symptoms attributable to acute infarction or intracranial hemorrhage secondary to thrombosis, in the absence of a coexisting cavernous malformation. We report the case of a 42-year-old patient who presented with acute left-hand paresis secondary to a subcortical hemorrhage. This bleeding originated from a DVA in the corticospinal tract area and was surgically drained through an awake craniotomy. To accomplish this, we used a trans-precentral sulcus approach. After the complete removal of the coagulum, small venous channels appeared, which were coagulated. No associated cavernoma was found. Although the main DVA trunk was left patent, no signs of ischemia or venous infarction were observed after coagulating the small venous channels found inside the hematoma cavity. Two weeks after the procedure, the patient's hand function improved, and he was able to resume desktop work. DVA-associated hemorrhage within the cortico-spinal tract could be safely removed with modern awake mapping techniques. This technique allowed the patient to rapidly improve his hand function.

  • Let k be a positive integer, and let G be a simple graph with vertex set V (G). A Roman k-dominating function on G is a function f : V (G) $\rightarrow$ {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex u for which f(u) = 0 is adjacent to at least k vertices $\upsilon_1,\;\upsilon_2,\;{\ldots},\;\upsilon_k$ with $f(\upsilon_i)$ = 2 for i = 1, 2, $\ldot$, k. The weight of a Roman k-dominating function is the value f(V (G)) = $\sum_{u{\in}v(G)}$ f(u). The minimum weight of a Roman k-dominating function on a graph G is called the Roman k-domination number ${\gamma}_{kR}$(G) of G. Note that the Roman 1-domination number $\gamma_{1R}$(G) is the usual Roman domination number $\gamma_R$(G). In this paper, we investigate the properties of the Roman k-domination number. Some of our results extend these one given by Cockayne, Dreyer Jr., S. M. Hedetniemi, and S. T. Hedetniemi [2] in 2004 for the Roman domination number.

  • In the present paper, we find the sharp bound for the fourth coefficient of starlike functions f which are normalized by f(0) = 0 = f'(0) - 1 and satisfy the following two-sided inequality: $$1+{\frac{{\gamma}-{\pi}}{2\;{\sin}\;{\gamma}}}\;<\;{\Re}\{{\frac{zf^{\prime}(z)}{f(z)}}\}\;<\;1+{\frac{{\gamma}}{2\;{\sin}\;{\gamma}}},\;z{\in}{\mathbb{D}}$$, where ${\mathbb{D}}:=\{z{\in}{\mathbb{C}}:{\left|z\right|}<1\}$ is the unit disk and ${\gamma}$ is a real number such that ${\pi}/2{\leq}{\gamma}<{\pi}$. Moreover, the sharp bound for the fifth coefficient of f defined above with ${\gamma}$ in a subset of [${\pi}/2,{\pi}$) also will be found.
