(R1513) The Dynamical Study of Variable Mass Test Particle in Nonlinear Sense of Restricted 3-body Problem with Heterogeneous Primaries

The main idea of this paper is to study the non-linear stability property of the motion of the test particle which is moving under the influence of heterogeneous primaries having N-layers with different densities as well as varying its mass according to Jeans law. The system is also perturbed by the small perturbations in Coriolis as well as centrifugal forces. We evaluate the equations of motion of the test particle under the influence of the above said perturbations. From this system of equations of motion, we reveal analytically the locations of stationary points as well as the non-linear stability

Complexity Dynamics of Gumowski-Mira Map

In the context of nonlinear dynamics, interesting dynamic behavior of Gumowski-Mira Map has been noted under various feasible circumstances. Evolutionary phenomena are discussed through the study of bifurcation analysis leading to period-doubling and chaos. The appearance of chaos in the method is identified by plotting Lyapunov characteristic exponents (LCE) and Topological Entropy within certain parameter range. Dynamic Lyapunov Indicator (DLI) has been procured for further identification of regular and chaotic motions of the Gumowski-Mira Map. The numerical results through the indicator DLI clearly demonstrate the behavior of our map. The correlation dimension has been calculated numerically for the dimension of the chaotic attractor

Statistical Relation of CMEs Related Geomagnetic Storms With Interplanetary Magnetic Fields

We have studied geomagnetic storm (Dst?-150 nT), associated with Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), observed during the period of 2000-2011 with Interplanetary Magnetic Fields. It is observed that coronal mass ejections (CMEs) related geomagnetic storms are found to be association rates of halo and partial halo CMEs  are 18(90%) and 02(10%) respectively. From the further analysis, positive co-relation has been found between magnitude of CMEs related geomagnetic storms and speed of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), with correlation coefficient 0.50. Positive co-relation has been found between magnitude of CMEs related geomagnetic storms and magnitude of change in interplanetary magnetic fields, with correlation coefficient 0.55, positive co-relation has been found between magnitude of CMEs related geomagnetic storms and peak value of change in interplanetary magnetic fields, with correlation coefficient 0.56.

Molecular Cloning and Expression of Bacterial Mercuric Reductase Gene

In order to characterize the bacterial mercuric reductase (merA) gene, mercury resistant (Hgr) Escherichia coli strains have been isolated from various mercury contaminated sites of India. Their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for Hg and zone of inhibition for different antibiotics were measured, and finally mer operon was localized by transforming isolated E. coli plasmid into mercury sensitive (Hgs) host E. coli DH5a cells. Oligonucleotide primers were designed by comparing the knownreported sequences of merA from Gram-negative bacterium (E. coli plasmid R100) and 1695 bp full length merA gene was amplified by PCR. A 1.695-kb DNA fragment of merA was inserted into isopropyl- -D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) inducible bacterial expression vector pQE-30U/A. E. coli DH5 strains harboring the merA constructs showed higher mercury reductase enzyme (MerA) activity and expressed significantly more MerA than the control strains under aerobic conditions. The purified merA gene over expressed in the specific host E. coli BL21(DE3)Plys cells. Finally, expressed MerA protein was purifiedby Immobilized Metal-chelate Affinity Chromatography (IMAC) by using Ni- NTA column; and ~66.2 kDa bacterial MerA protein was detected after resolving on 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate poly acrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS PAGE)

(R1985) Study the Effect of Modified Newtonian Force on the Restricted 3-body Configuration in Non-Linear Sense

This paper aims to investigate the non-linear stability of the triangular libration point in the restricted three-body problem (R3BP). The model, we use for our problem consists of a primary body as a heterogeneous spheroid with N-layers having different densities of each layer and a secondary body as a point mass that is producing the modified Newtonian Potential. We determine the equation of motion of the smallest body which is under the influence of the above-mentioned perturbations and also influenced by Coriolis as well as Centrifugal forces and then evaluated the Lagrangian for the evaluated system of equations. Afterwards, we write the first and second-order normalization of the Hamiltonian of the problem. By implying KAM theorem and the techniques used by Bhatnagar and Hallan, we discuss the non-linear stability analytically

Effect of Gamma Irradiation on African Marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) Cv. Pusa Narangi Gainda

Seeds of African marigold cv. 'Pusa Narangi Gainda' were irradiated with 0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 Grays of gamma rays to induce mutation. Seeds were sown just after irradiation and 30-day old seedlings were transplanted into beds. Reduction in survival percentage, plant height, number of branches, leaf number, leaf size, plant-spread, stem diameter, increased foliage and floral abnormalities were observed upon irradiation and with increase in dose of gamma rays. LD50 was determined on survival basis. Leaf abnormality manifested itself as leathery texture of leaf, enhanced and irregular leaf thickness, asymmetric development of pinnate leaflets, reduction in pinnae number, chlorophyll variegation, pale and deep green leaves, narrow leaves and small leaves. Percentage of abnormal leaves and plants increased with increase in dose of gamma rays. Fasciation of stem was a common abnormality observed in all the treatments. Days to bud initiation, earliness in colour-appearance and days to full bloom were all significantly delayed upon exposure to gamma rays. Flower-head size, height and weight were highest at the lowest dose. Number of ray florets and size (length and width) decreased with increasing radiation dose. Floral abnormalities and % of plants with abnormal flower-heads increased with increasing dose of gamma irradiation. Floral abnormality included fasciation of flower-head and asymmetric development of ray florets. Stimulating effect of gamma irradiation was observed at 100 Grays where almost all the characters studied showed positive correlation, including growth and yield attributes. It is concluded that exposure to 100 Grays of gamma rays in African marigold cv. Pusa Narangi Gainda results in higher yield and marketable bloom

Characteristic study, its identification and self-tuned approach to control hydro-power plants

The water time constant and mechanical time constant greatly influences the power and speed oscillations of hydro-turbine-generator unit. This paper discusses the turbine power transients in response to different nature and changes in the gate position. The work presented here analyses the characteristics of hydraulic system with an emphasis on changes in the above time constants. The simulation study is based on mathematical first-, second-, third- and fourth-order transfer function models. The study is further extended to identify discrete time-domain models and their characteristic representation without noise and with noise content of 10 & 20 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The use of self-tuned control approach in minimising the speed deviation under plant parameter changes and disturbances is also discussed
