    This study was aimed to determine changes of the characteristics of raw pig slurry as liquid organic fertilizer at various storage times. A completely randomized design was used in this research. The treatments were storage times, i.e.: 0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 days. Variables observed were loss of the slurry, degree of acidity (pH), electrical conductivity (EC), total solid (TS), volatile solid (VS), total chemical oxygen demand (tCOD), soluble chemical oxygen demand (sCOD), total nitrogen (TN), ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N), nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N), total phosphate (TP), and dissolve reactive phosphate (DRP). The results showed that storage time significantly affected all the observed variables, except the concentration of NO3-N and total phosphate content. The pH, TS, VS, DRP, and losses of slurry lost during storage times increased, while EC, TN, NH3-N, tCOD, and sCOD decreased. Physico-chemical properties of slurry during storage times changed, as a result of organic matter breakdown

    New transformation of Wigner operator in phase space quantum mechanics for the two-mode entangled case

    Full text link
    As a natural extension of Fan's paper (arXiv: 0903.1769vl [quant-ph]) by employing the formula of operators' Weyl ordering expansion and the bipartite entangled state representation we find new two-fold complex integration transformation about the Wigner operator (in its entangled form) in phase space quantum mechanics and its inverse transformation. In this way, some operator ordering problems can be solved and the contents of phase space quantum mechanics can be enriched.Comment: 8 pages, 0 figure

    Non-degenerate colorings in the Brook's Theorem

    Full text link
    Let c≥2c\geq 2 and p≥cp\geq c be two integers. We will call a proper coloring of the graph GG a \textit{(c,p)(c,p)-nondegenerate}, if for any vertex of GG with degree at least pp there are at least cc vertices of different colors adjacent to it. In our work we prove the following result, which generalizes Brook's Theorem. Let D≥3D\geq 3 and GG be a graph without cliques on D+1D+1 vertices and the degree of any vertex in this graph is not greater than DD. Then for every integer c≥2c\geq 2 there is a proper (c,p)(c,p)-nondegenerate vertex DD-coloring of GG, where p=(c3+8c2+19c+6)(c+1).p=(c^3+8c^2+19c+6)(c+1). During the primary proof, some interesting corollaries are derived.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figure
