MEASURING THE SENSITIVITY OF TURKISH AND ROMANIAN STOCK MARKETS TO EUROPEAN STOCK MARKETS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Since the process of globalization accelerates all over the world, trade and economic relations among countries become very intensive and the stock markets in these countries started to integrate to each other quickly. As a result of this, world wide stocBeta Coefficient, Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE,) Bucharest Stock Exchange (BSE), ISE100 Index, BET10 Index, FTS Eurofirst 300 Index
Electromagnetically Induced Transparency in strongly interacting Rydberg Gases
We develop an efficient Monte-Carlo approach to describe the optical response
of cold three-level atoms in the presence of EIT and strong atomic
interactions. In particular, we consider a "Rydberg-EIT medium" where one
involved level is subject to large shifts due to strong van der Waals
interactions with surrounding Rydberg atoms. We find excellent agreement with
much more involved quantum calculations and demonstrate its applicability over
a wide range of densities and interaction strengths. The calculations show that
the nonlinear absorption due to Rydberg-Rydberg atom interactions exhibits
universal behavior
Evaluation of candidate working fluid formulations for the electrothermal-chemical wind tunnel
A new hypersonic test facility which can simulate conditions typical of atmospheric flight at Mach numbers up to 20 is currently under study at the NASA/LaRC Hypersonic Propulsion Branch. In the proposed research, it was suggested that a combustion augmented electrothermal wind tunnel concept may be applied to the planned hypersonic testing facility. The purpose of the current investigation is to evaluate some candidate working fluid formulations which may be used in the chemical-electrothermal wind. The efforts in the initial phase of this research were concentrated on acquiring the code used by GASL to model the electrothermal wind tunnel and testing it using the conditions of GASL simulation. The early version of the general chemical kinetics code (GCKP84) was obtained from NASA and the latest updated version of the code (LSENS) was obtained from the author Dr. Bittker. Both codes are installed on a personal computer with a 486 25 MHz processor and 16 Mbyte RAM. Since the available memory was not sufficient to debug LSENS, for the current work GCKP84 was used
