Conservation of marine fish genetic resources-present status and action needed
Overfishing, unscientific commercial exploitation, and destruction of habitats caused by nature and
alao Induced by man have been, of late, causing serious threat to the marine fish germplasm resources.
Judicious exploitation, protection for Improvement and conservation are, thus, required for keeping the
natural resources truely renewable-
Conservation approaches are in situ, ex situ, entire biomass or flexible mix with the responsibilities
required to be equally shared by the professional personnel, policy makers and the people themselves Top
priority may be given for conservation of endangered species for maintaining genetic variability to maximize
probability of their long term survival
Probing the SUSY breaking scale at an collider
If supersymmetry is spontaneously at a low energy scale then the resulting
gravitino would be very light. The interaction strength of the longitudinal
components of such a light gravitino to electron-selectron pair then becomes
comparable to that of electroweak interactions. Such a light gravitino could
modify the cross-section for e^_L e^_R-->\tilde {e}_L\tilde {e}_R from its
MSSM value. Precision measurement of this cross-section could therefore be used
to probe the low energy SUSY breaking scale.Comment: Plain Tex, 7 pages, No figure
Unitarity constraints on the stabilized Randall-Sundrum scenario
Recently proposed stabilization mechanism of the Randall-Sundrum metric gives
rise to a scalar radion, which couples universally to matter with a weak
interaction ( TeV) scale. Demanding that gauge boson scattering as
described by the effective low enerrgy theory be unitary upto a given scale
leads to significant constraints on the mass of such a radion.Comment: 10 page Latex 2e file including 4 postscript figures. Accepted in

Leptoquark Contribution to the Higgs Boson Production at the LHC Collider
In this report we study how a light-scalar leptoquark could affect the Higgs
boson production cross-section at the LHC collider. We construct the most
general renormalizable and gauge invariant effective Lagrangian involving the
standard model particles and a scalar, isoscalar leptoquark, \eta.
The total cross-section for pp -> H+X is then calculated for different values
of the unknown parameters \lambda_eta, m_eta and m_H.(Here \lambda_eta is the
coupling associated with the Higgs-leptoquark interaction.)
We find that if \lambda_eta is moderately large and m_eta is around a few
hundred GeV, then the cross-section is significantly larger than the standard
model value.Comment: 9 pages, 4 postscript figure
Chiral Symmetry Breaking in Quenched Massive Strong-Coupling QED
We present results from a study of subtractive renormalization of the fermion
propagator Dyson-Schwinger equation (DSE) in massive strong-coupling quenched
QED. Results are compared for three different fermion-photon proper vertex
{\it Ans\"{a}tze\/}: bare , minimal Ball-Chiu, and
Curtis-Pennington. The procedure is straightforward to implement and
numerically stable. This is the first study in which this technique is used and
it should prove useful in future DSE studies, whenever renormalization is
required in numerical work.Comment: REVTEX 3.0, 15 pages plus 7 uuencoded PostScript figure
Development of Fish Hydrolysate (Bind-Add+) incorporated extruded pellets and its performance in Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) feeding trial
Fish hydrolysate (FH) based Bind-Add+ is a emulsion type feed binder cum additive which contains un-denatured proteins and calcium is capable of reasonable level of gelatinization and contribute to the binding properties which is seen from water absorptive capacity, buoyancy, bulk density and water stability characteristics during extrusion pellet production..
Bind-Add+ has good amount of bio-available primary nutrients, secondary nutrients, micro nutrients, anti-oxidants and pro-biotic in a soluble liquid form and most suitable as additive or feed supplement.
Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) feeding trial indicate that growth rate and feed utilization efficiency in Bind-Add+ incorporated diets increases significantly in comparison to controlled diet
Gauged Yukawa Matrix Models and 2-Dimensional Lattice Theories
We argue that chiral symmetry breaking in three dimensional QCD can be
identified with N\'eel order in 2-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets. When
operators which drive the chiral transition are added to these theories, we
postulate that the resulting quantum critical behavior is in the universality
class of gauged Yukawa matrix models. As a consequence, the chiral transition
is typically of first order, although for a limited class of parameters it can
be second order with computable critical exponents.Comment: LaTeX, 11 page
Minimal Flavour Violation for Leptoquarks
Scalar leptoquarks, with baryon and lepton number conserving interactions,
could have TeV scale masses, and be produced at colliders or contribute to a
wide variety of rare decays. In pursuit of some insight as to the most
sensitive search channels, We assume that the leptoquark-lepton-quark coupling
can be constructed from the known mass matrices. We estimate the rates for
selected rare processes in three cases: leptoquarks carrying lepton and quark
flavour, leptoquarks with quark flavour only, and unflavoured leptoquarks. We
find that leptoquark decay to top quarks is an interesting search channel.Comment: 17 pages, 2 figures, minor changes and references adde
Electric charge quantization and the muon anomalous magnetic moment
We investigate some proposals to solve the electric charge quantization
puzzle, which simultaneously explain the recent measured deviation on the muon
anomalous magnetic moment. For this we assess extensions of the Electro-Weak
Standard Model spanning modifications on the scalar sector only. It is
interesting to verify that one can have modest extensions which easily account
for the solution for both problems.Comment: 20 pages, 1 figures, needs macro axodraw.st
