Determination of Weak Amplitudes using Bose Symmetry and Dalitz Plots
We present a new method using Dalitz plot and Bose symmetry of pions that
allows the complete determination of the magnitudes and phases of weak decay
amplitudes. We apply the method to process like B->K^* pi, with the subsequent
decay of K^* -> K pi. Our approach enables the additional measurement of an
isospin amplitude without any theoretical assumption. This advance will help in
measuring weak phase and probing for new physics beyond standard model with
fewer assumptions.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure; Title changed; Conclusions unchanged; Accepted for

Sensitivity of Ag/Al Interface Specific Resistances to Interfacial Intermixing
We have measured an Ag/Al interface specific resistance, 2AR(Ag/Al)(111) =
1.4 fOhm-m^2, that is twice that predicted for a perfect interface, 50% larger
than for a 2 ML 50%-50% alloy, and even larger than our newly predicted 1.3
fOhmm^2 for a 4 ML 50%-50% alloy. Such a large value of 2ARAg/Al(111) confirms
a predicted sensitivity to interfacial disorder and suggests an interface
greater than or equal to 4 ML thick. From our calculations, a predicted
anisotropy ratio, 2AR(Ag/Al)(001)/2AR(Ag/Al)(111), of more then 4 for a perfect
interface, should be reduced to less than 2 for a 4 ML interface, making it
harder to detect any such anisotropy.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, 1 table. In Press: Journal of Applied Physic
Thermoelectric Amplification of Phonons in Graphene
Amplification of acoustic phonons due to an external temperature gredient
() in Graphene was studied theoretically. The threshold temperature
gradient at which absorption switches over to amplification
in Graphene was evaluated at various frequencies and temperatures
. For and frequency , . The calculation was done in the regime at . The
dependence of the normalized () on the frequency
and the temperature gradient are evaluated numerically and
presented graphically. The calculated for Graphene is lower
than that obtained for homogeneous semiconductors () , Superlattices , Cylindrical Quantum Wire . This makes Graphene a much better material for thermoelectric
phonon amplifier.Comment: 12 Pages, 6 figure
Traditional handloom practices of Nyishi tribe of Arunachal Pradesh, Eastern Himalaya
442-449The documentation of traditional handloom practices of Nyishi tribe and their cultural attire was done in Papum pare district of Arunachal Pradesh wherein 7 selected villages were surveyed during May 2018 to February 2019 through random sampling with semi-structured questionnaire. Rubung Ruekio, a traditional loin loom of Nyishi tribe is prepared from locally available resources, viz., Bambusa. tulda, B. pallida, Dendrocalamus hamiltonii, Gmelina arborea, Michelia species and Terminalia myriocarpa. Most of the weavers were female and weaved culturally important traditional dresses such as Pomo gale, Dumping gale, Jekum/Name-acham gale, Jinjab gale, Juhu/Junghang gale and Luch/lungch gale which are worn especially during auspicious occasions. Of these, Jekum gale, Pomo gale and Dumping gale culturally significant. The market price of gale varied tremendously depending on type of raw material and type of handloom used in the production
Electric field Induced Patterns in Soft Visco-elastic films: From Long Waves of Viscous Liquids to Short Waves of Elastic Solids
We show that the electric field driven surface instability of visco-elastic
films has two distinct regimes: (1) The visco-elastic films behaving like a
liquid display long wavelengths governed by applied voltage and surface
tension, independent of its elastic storage and viscous loss moduli, and (2)
the films behaving like a solid require a threshold voltage for the instability
whose wavelength always scales as ~ 4 x film thickness, independent of its
surface tension, applied voltage, loss and storage moduli. Wavelength in a
narrow transition zone between these regimes depends on the storage modulus.Comment: Accepted for Publication in Physical Review Letter

Evaluation of Representative Microbiological Sampling Sites of Goat and Sheep Dressed Carcasses
Statistical analysis of data of number of sampling points for microbial counts representing the entire goat/sheep carcass was carried out. Thirtytwo sampling points were evaluated out of which fourteen were found to represent the entire dressed carcass for assessing its hygienic efficacy
Isospin Dependence of the Spin-Orbit Force and Effective Nuclear Potentials,
The isospin dependence of the spin-orbit potential is investigated for an
effective Skyrme-like energy functional suitable for density dependent
Hartree-Fock calculations. The magnitude of the isospin dependence is obtained
from a fit to experimental data on finite spherical nuclei. It is found to be
close to that of relativistic Hartree models. Consequently, the anomalous kink
in the isotope shifts of Pb nuclei is well reproduced.Comment: Revised, 11 pages (Revtex) and 2 figures available upon request,
