Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA has Found the Most Distant Black HoleRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuScientists have uncovered a rare relic from the early universe: the farthest known supermassive black hole. This matter-eating beast is 800 million times the mass of our Sun, which is astonishingly large for its young age. Researchers report the find in the journal Nature. "This black hole grew far larger than we expected in only 690 million years after the … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2018 · 7,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDerivation of Potentially Important Masses for Physics and Astrophysics by Dimensional AnalysisDimitar ValevThe Hubble constant has been added in addition to the three fundamental constants (speed of light, gravitational constant and Planck constant) used by Max Planck, for derivation of the Planck mass by dimensional analysis. As a result, a general solution is found for the mass dimension expression m = γp m0, where m0 ≡ mp is the Planck mass, γ … …Physics International, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Oct 2017 · 9,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModern Propulsions for Aerospace-Part IIRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Speaking about a new engine ionic means to speak about a new aircraft. The paper presents in a short time the actual engines ion chambers (called the ion thrusters) and other new ionic motors proposed by the authors. The engine (ionic propulsion unit of ions, that accelerates the positive ions through a potential difference) is approximately ten times more efficient … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2017 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Crump Rubber (CR) of Scrap Tire in Hot Mix Asphalt DesignOmar Asad AhmadHot Mix Asphalt (HMA) design is one of the most important types of pavement used in highway construction. This research provided a hot mixture design method modifying with Crump Rubber Scrap Tire (CR) in order to develop and determining the optimum additive for hot mix asphalt design. All tests conducted to the raw material including specific gravity, compact test and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 13 Feb 2017 · 7,364 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis and Mechanical Design Solutions for Sit-To-Stand Assisting DevicesPierluigi Rea, Erika OttavianoSit-to-stand can be considered the most common daily-life activity and it can be defined as a change of posture, in which the base of support is transferred from the seat to the feet. It requires both voluntary movement of different body segments that contribute to the equilibrium and control during an important displacement of the Centre Of Gravity of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2016 · 7,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimations of Neutrino and Graviton Masses by a Phenomenological Mass Relation for Stable ParticlesDimitar T. ValevThe ratio between the proton and electron masses was shown to be close to the ratio between the shortest lifetimes of particles, decaying by the electromagnetic and strong interactions. The inherent property of each fundamental interaction is defined, namely the Minimal Lifetime of the Interaction (MLTI). The rest mass of the Lightest Free Massive Stable Particle (LFMSP), acted upon by … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 25 Aug 2015 · 8,966 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeophysical and Geological Studies of the Spread and Industrial Quality of Okurike Barite DepositAnthony E. Akpan, Ebong D. Ebong, Stephen E. Ekwok, Sackey JosephInvestors have been avoiding the Okurike Barite due to paucity of information on its economic worth in spite of the high demand for barites by the local industries. This study was embarked upon to determine the spread and industrial quality of the barite deposit in order to bridge the information gap. The Okurike Barite mineralised site was investigated using geophysical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Nickel and Zinc by Residual SoilsNur ’Aishah Zarime, W. Y. Wan Zuhairi, Sivarama KrishnaSoil has long been utilized as low cost liner material to prevent contamination from leachate to groundwater media. To find a suitable soil material for this purpose is a great challenge. This study describes the potential use of residual soil to functions as engineered clay liner for waste disposal landfill in Malaysia. Three types of residual soils were investigated namely … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 5 Dec 2014 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEXTENDED MASS RELATION FOR SEVEN FUNDAMENTAL MASSES AND NEW EVIDENCE OF LARGE NUMBERS HYPOTHESISCurtis J. Forsythe, Dimitar T. ValevA previously derived mass relation has been extended to seven equidistant fundamental masses covering an extremely large mass range from ~10-69 to ~1053 kg. Six of these masses are successfully identified as mass of the observable universe, Eddington mass limit of the most massive stars, mass of hypothetical quantum “Gravity Atom” whose gravitational potential is equal to electrostatic potential e2/S, … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 16 Jul 2014 · 8,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractESTIMATIONS OF TOTAL MASS AND ENERGY OF THE OBSERVABLE UNIVERSEDimitar ValevThe recent astronomical observations indicate that the expanding universe is homogeneous, isotropic and asymptotically flat. The Euclidean geometry of the universe enables to determine the total gravitational and kinetic energy of the universe by Newtonian gravity in a flat space. By means of dimensional analysis, we have found the mass of the observable universe close to the Hoyle-Carvalho formula M∼c3/(GH). … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2014 · 17,696 accessesView PDFCite
