The Zonation of Aridity Intensity in Iran Using Hargreaves- Samani Evapotranspiration Model Based on Digital Elevation Model (DEM) by Taghi Tavoosi, Mohammadreza Mansouri Daneshvar, Alireza Movaqqari

“…The results in seasonal and monthly scale showed that the intensity of evapotranspiration was acceptable in conformity with dominated air masses during different seasons in Iran. The Combination of the produced evapotranspiration maps for mean scale of 12 months in 30 years time period revealed that all of the different regions of iran are located in the dry climatic condition since in all of these regions evapotranspiration rate is more than rainfall at least in three months of a year. …”

Properties and Behaviors of Heavy Quarkonia: Insights through Fractional Model and Topological Defects by M. Abu-shady, H. M. Fath-Allah

“…We solved the fractional radial Schrödinger equation (SE) using the extended Nikiforov-Uvarov (ENU) method to obtain the eigenvalues of energy, which allowed us to calculate the masses of charmonium and bottomonium. One significant observation was the splitting between nP and nD states, which attributed to the presence of the topological defect. …”

Juvenile Cosmology; Or Richard Powers’ Post-Global Doughnut by Judith Roof

“…Moving from the Aristotelean to the Einsteinian, Operation Wandering Soul’s terrain is cosmological, while its narrative collapses time/space into an exhibition of something like Richard Feynman’s “sum over the histories” made up of proliferating versions of juvenile massings and vain pilgrimages. The novel’s collapse of time/space is not a simplistic paean to the global (a category already as out-dated as hapless Vietnam vets), but instead bags the gathering consciousness of an originless existence forever extending beyond its supposed coordinates. …”
