Efficient Long-range Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) Feedback Affects the Low-redshift Lyα Forest
(American Astronomical Society, 2023)Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feedback models are generally calibrated to reproduce galaxy observables such as the stellar mass function and the bimodality in galaxy colors. We use variations of the AGN feedback implementations ... -
Efficient long-range active galactic nuclei (agns) feedback affects the low-redshift lyα forest
(American Astronomical Society, 2023)Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feedback models are generally calibrated to reproduce galaxy observables such as the stellar mass function and the bimodality in galaxy colors. We use variations of the AGN feedback implementations ... -
Efficient molecular cloning of environmental DNA from geothermal sediments

Efficient numerical method for a model arising in biological stoichiometry of tumor dynamics
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2019)In this paper, we extend a system of coupled first order non-linear system of delay differential equations (DDEs) arising in modeling of stoichiometry of tumour dynamics, to a system of diffusion-reaction system of partial ... -
An efficient numerical method for pricing double-barrier options on an underlying stock governed by a fractal stochastic process.
(MDPI, 2023)After the discovery of the fractal structures of financial markets, enormous effort has been dedicated to finding accurate and stable numerical schemes to solve fractional Black-Scholes partial differential equations. This ... -
Efficient superoxide scavenging and metal immobilization in roots determines the level of tolerance to vanadium stress in two contrasting Brassica napus genotypes
(Elsevier, 2018)Brassica napus also known as Rapeseed is a member of the Brassicaceae family which is mainly cultivated for its oil-rich seeds. Indeed, B. napus is ranked the third-largest source of vegetable oil in the world. Brassica ... -
Einstein's legacy in galaxy surveys
(Oxford University Press, 2015)Non-Gaussianity in the primordial fluctuations that seeded structure formation produces a signal in the galaxy power spectrum on very large scales. This signal contains vital information about the primordial Universe, but ... -
Electric dipole polarizability of low-lying excited states in atomic nuclei
(Institute of Physics, 2024)New equations for the electric dipole polarizability α E1 of low-lying excited states in atomic nuclei—and the related (−2) moment of the total photo-absorption cross section, σ −2—are inferred in terms of electric dipole ... -
