Inspired by the idea in Ref. [16], which introduced a viscosity coefficient into expansion equation describing universe, we also attempt to introduce such positive rotational motion galaxies, and then studies what will happen. Surprisingly, obtained all formulas assumed MOND, including concrete interpolation function between centripetal acceleration Newtonian acceleration. But at same time, something different from MOND was obtained, that is, critical acceleration, a0 does not need be...
Inspired by the idea in Ref. [16], which introduced a viscosity coefficient into ΛCDM model to describe expansion of universe, we also attempt introduce such positive rotational motion equation describing disk galaxies, and then studies what will happen. Surprisingly, obtained all formulas assumed MOND, including concrete interpolation function between centripetal acceleration Newtonian acceleration, however is empirical MOND. But at same time, something different from MOND was obtained,...
User cooperation protocols, where mobile stations relay signals to the final destination, have been proposed for wireless networks. A general mathematical probability model is developed study performance of decode-and-forward relaying protocol. Practical systems may employ channels that experience statistically different signal fadings. The in with dissimilar fading parameters investigated. In particular, closed-form expressions outage and error probabilities a system an arbitrary number...

The specific activity of the beta decay $^{39}$Ar in atmospheric argon is measured using DEAP-3600 detector. DEAP-3600, located 2 km underground at SNOLAB, uses a total (3269 $\pm$ 24) kg liquid distilled from atmosphere to search for dark matter. This detector with very low background pulseshape discrimination differentiate between nuclear recoils and electron well-suited measure $^{39}$Ar.

Cooperative diversity, where multiple communication nodes collaborate to exploit independent signal replicas that are combined at the destination has been proposed. Practical diversity receivers often employ simple combining techniques especially if comparable performance more complex optimum can be achieved. The performances of cooperative systems use selection investigated. In particular, we consider decode-and-forward and amplify- and-forward relaying protocols. Closed-form expressions...
This paper analyzes the horror film Midsommar through lens of Freire's Pedagogy Oppressed , centered on concept critical consciousness and its modern renditions as digital or even performative activism. extends upon familiar narratives like The Lottery to present a blurring binary between those who only appear critically-conscious their adversaries. stark contrast murderous religious cult, Hårga, group graduate students in anthropology fades throughout director meticulously presents ritual...
This paper applies conceptualization from Paulo Freire, Tracey Nicholls, and bell hooks to develop a framework understand art- media-based communication of knowledge. Increasing use art digital media in research formal educational settings emphasize knowledge-communication intent, the theory attempts rationalize why individuals potentially devalue, discard, or misconstrue messaging. Drawing upon two case studies: children&rsquo;s literature, existing scholarship on true crime as genre,...
The statistical distribution of a sum Rayleigh random variables is often required when analyzing the performance wireless communication systems. A closed-form expression does not exist for and consequently, it approximated or calculated numerically. widely used small argument approximation density shown to be inaccurate medium large values argument. Highly accurate, simple approximations distributions densities are presented in this paper. These valid wide range probability number summands.
Knowledge translation (KT), the dissemination of research outputs towards utilization and application, is increasingly recognized in research. For marginalized populations, benefiting from can be hindered by longstanding, inequitable access to information education. The objective this pilot study assess potential using creative works digital humanities - such as films, series, animations, games, graphic novels knowledge tools for engagement, inclusivity, equitable research-based knowledge....
Research outputs towards dissemination -such as journal articles and academic conferences -may be difficult to access for marginalized youth, despite the fact that engaging youth in this can 1) help them equitably benefit from existing research evidence-base while 2) mobilizing new generations utilization application.A pilot study was conducted assess digital media an alternative tool disseminating youth.Specifically, article focuses on mental health implications of communicating via...
STAFAN algorithm (1985) is regarded as a good alternative to fault simulation of digital circuits. However, this has two parameters /spl alpha/ and beta/ be determined by so it no practical uses. This article analyzes the probability distribution random signals at circuit nodes, proves that controllability in normal distribution. Thus unbiasing estimate detection can obtained. Moreover, according concept observability, we eliminate parameter beta/. For actual circuits coverage obtained from...
