Big Bounce Genesis and Possible Experimental Tests: A Brief Review

  • Yeuk-Kwan Edna Cheung,
  • Changhong Li and
  • Joannis D. Vergados

23 November 2016

We review the recent status of big bounce genesis as a new possibility of using dark matter particles’ mass and interaction cross-section to test the existence of a bounce universe at the early stage of evolution in our currently-observed universe. T...

  • Zakia Shahzadi and
  • Shin Min Kang

18 November 2016

Topological indices and polynomials are predicting properties like boiling points, fracture toughness, heat of formation, etc., of different materials, and thus save us from extra experimental burden. In this article we compute many topological indic...

  • Palle Duun Rohde

18 November 2016

The concept of developmental instability (DI) is a well-known indicator of environmental and genetic stress and is often investigated using various indices such as fluctuating asymmetry, directional asymmetry, antisymmetry and phenotypic variance. In...

Nutritional Stress Causes Heterogeneous Relationships with Multi-Trait FA in Lesser Black-Backed Gull Chicks: An Aviary Experiment

  • Trisha Gupta,
  • Cátia S. A. Santos,
  • Alejandro Sotillo,
  • Liesbeth De Neve,
  • Eric W. M. Stienen,
  • Wendt Müller and
  • Luc Lens

Improvement in Scoliosis Top View: Evaluation of Vertebrae Localization in Scoliotic Spine-Spine Axial Presentation

  • Paweł Główka,
  • Dominik Gaweł,
  • Bartosz Kasprzak,
  • Michał Nowak and
  • Tomasz Kotwicki

14 November 2016

Morphological analysis of the scoliotic spine is based on two-dimensional X-rays: coronal and sagittal. The three-dimensional character of scoliosis has raised the necessity for analyzing scoliosis in three planes. We proposed a new user-friendly met...
