    Ecotourism is a visit to the natural reserved areas like national parks, sanctuaries and biosphere reserves for sightseeing as tourism. The visit of reserved areas by the tourists, the entrepreneurs, the government and the host community, the major agencies or stakeholders in ecotourism, has created numerous effects in the field of ecology, socio-cultural, economic which are indefensible lots of time. Sustainability is also a sober concern. The current article inspects sustainability as an association with all its stakeholders and proposes on preserving equilibrium in the correlation which is necessary to achieve sustainability. The part of rule in attaining sustainability is surveyed and found that it helps in reinstating the essential stability in the association with the stakeholders in ecotourism.  Ecotourism in Karnataka is steadily qualified for the consideration of the tourists, the government and the entrepreneurs for clear motive. Karnataka has necessary prospective in ecotourism to cope up with the interests of the tourists, the entrepreneurs and the government but does sustainability study with  concern in the schedule of these organizations. An environmental law is one of the most effectual tools for executing sustainability; it needs plenty of provisions to institute synchronization between the stakeholders and hence the goal of sustainability in ecotourism remains unachievable

    Radiative capture of orbital electrons in the decay of Be7

    The higher energy portion of the inner bremsstrahlung spectrum accompanying the allowed orbital electron capture transition in Be7 to the ground state of Li7 was measured with a single channel NaI(Tl) scintillation spectrometer. Correction for the pileup spectrum due to the 478 keV nuclear γ rays arising from the deexcitation of the first excited state in Li7 was performed by numerical integration. The measured pulse-height distribution of the inner bremsstrahlung photons was corrected for detector response following the procedures of Liden and Starfelt and Palmer and Laslett. For energies higher than 560 keV the number of 1S+2S bremsstrahlung photons emitted per ground state EC decay of Be7 was determined to be (6.31 ± 0.38) × 10-5. Corresponding theoretical values are 6.46 × 10-5, deduced from Martin - Glauber theory, and 6.45 × 10-5, deduced from the improved calculations of Intemann. The present result is in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. The decay energy of Be7 was determined to be 857 ± 14 in agreement with the accepted atomic mass difference.

    Incoherent scattering of 279, 322, 662 and 1115 keV gamma rays in Cu, Sn and Pb

    No full text
    The differential incoherent scattering cross sections of 279 and 322 keV photons in copper, tin and lead were experimentally determined at different angles ranging from 10-120 degrees by the method of Shivaramu, Gopal and Sanjeevaiah (see ibid., vol.11, p.1123 (1978)). The cross sections of 662 and 1115 keV photons were also experimentally determined in copper, tin and lead using a cone geometry between 3 and 8 degrees . The incoherent scattering functions derived from the experimental results agree fairly well with the values calculated by Cromer (see J. Chem. Phys., vol.50, p.4857 (1969)) on the basis of SCF Hartree-Fock wavefunctions

    K-shell photoionisation cross sections for 514, 661.6, 765.8 and 1115.5 keV gamma rays

    Reports on experimentally measured K-shell photoionisation cross sections of tin, tantalum, gold, lead and thorium (Z=50-90) targets at gamma-ray energies of 514, 661.6, 765.8 and 1115.5 keV. The K X-ray-photoelectron coincidence method developed by Ranganath et al. has been used for this purpose. Good agreement is observed between the present cross sections and the theoretical predictions of Schmickley and Pratt and Scofield

    In this paper we describe a coincidence method of measuring K-shell photoelectric cross sections. The results for 662 keV gamma rays in tin, tantalum and lead obtained by this method are compared with theoretical cross sections of Schmickley and Pratt and of Scofield. © 1978

    Photoeffect cross sections of some rare-earth elements at 145.4 keV

    No full text
    Total attenuation cross sections in the elements La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Ho, and Er were derived from the measured total cross sections of their simple oxide compounds, by employing the mixture rule at 145.4-keV photon energy. The compound cross sections have been measured by performing transmission experiments in a good geometry setup. From the derived total cross sections of elements, photoeffect cross sections have been obtained by subtracting the theoretical scattering cross sections. A good agreement is observed between the present data of photoeffect cross sections and Scofields theoretical data

    On the emission of neutral hyperons from k--interactions at rest with emulsion nuclei

    No full text
    A systematic search has been made for decays of A0-hyperons around 5262 interactions of K--mesons at rest in photographic emulsion. From the 41 decays of correlated A0-hyperons observed in this sample, it has been estimated that (47±7)% of all K--meson interactions at rest in emulsion nuclei emit neutral hyperons. On consideration of the conservation of strangeness it is suggested that cryptofragments are formed in (30±7)% of all such K--meson absorptions and that the non-mesonic decays of these cryptofragments give rise to a considerable proportion of the protons of energies greater than 60 MeV emitted from K--meson captures. © 1961 Società Italiana di Fisica.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    On the trapping of Λ0-hyperons following the absorptions at rest of Σ--hyperons in emulsion nuclei

    No full text
    The emission of hyperfragments and the formation of cryptofragments following the absorption at rest of Σ- hyperons in emulsion nuclei have been studied. Both these phenomena appear to occur less frequently than in the case of K- mesons absorptions. From of a study of short prongs and Auger electrons it is suggested that hyperfragments are emitted predominantly from light nuclei, while cryptofragments are formed preferentially in heavy nuclei. © 1962 Società Italiana di Fisica.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
