Details of photometric observations during the totalities of the primary and secondary minima of SZ Psc are analysed in the light of the “star spot model” for RS CVn type binaries. Presence of scatter during the totality of primary minimum and its absence during the totality of secondary minimum of SZ Psc provide evidence towards one of the assumptions of the model,i.e. the spot activity confines to one of the hemispheres of the cooler star.

Guthnick and Prager (1929) were the discoverers of the variability of AH Virginis. Prager (1929) produced a photographic light curve the same year. Lause (1934, 1935, 1937) observed the system visually and improved the period as deduced by Prager. Further visual work on the system was done by Zessewitsch (1944). The first photoelectric observations came from Huruhata and Nakamura (1951), followed in 1952 by Kitamura, Tanabe and Nakamura (1957).Lack of their data on ingress and egress at primary eclipse resulted in the mean curve showing a rounded bottom during minimum light. From this, an inclination of the system of 61° was derived by Kopal and Shapley (1956). Two years later, Kwee (1958) revealed primary minimum to be flat bottomed; the light remaining constant for some 40 minutes. This was confirmed by Binnendijk (1960), thus classifying AH Virginis as one of the few W UMa systems which display complete eclipses at an inclination likely to be closer to 90° then to 61°. Observations of the present study confirm constancy of light of 40 minutes duration during primary minimum. Assuming i = 90°, a new orbital solution was derived by Kitamura and Takahashi (1959) showing constant light for both minima. Binnendijk’s observation, however, showed a curved appearance at secondary minimum. The present observations indicate curved as well as flat secondary minima.

AbstractWe present UBVRI light curves of the symbiotic nova PU Vul after its outburst in 1978. Three observed eclipses of the hot component by the cool one were used to determine the ephemeris of the binary system as JD (Min I) = 2444550(15) + 4897(10) × E days. the 194-day shift of the secondary minimum from its expected positions in 2001 suggests the eccentricity of the binary orbit. Period analysis of the VRI photometry improved the pulsation period of the cool AGB variable in the system to P = 217.7 days. Pulsation of the cool component is detected only in the phases around the primary minimum, when the visible hemisphere of the AGB star is not influenced by the interaction with the hot component.

                                Translation of four dimensional axes anywhere within the spatial and temporal boundaries of the universe would require quantitative values from convergence between parameters that reflect these limits. The presence of entanglement and volumetric velocities indicates that the initiating energy for displacement and transposition of axes would be within the upper limit of the rest mass of a single photon which is the same order of magnitude as a macroscopic Hamiltonian of the modified Schrödinger wave function. The representative metaphor is that any local 4-D geometry, rather than displaying restricted movement through Minkowskian space, would instead expand to the total universal space-time volume before re-converging into another location where it would be subject to cause-effect. Within this transient context the contributions from the anisotropic features of entropy and the laws of thermodynamics would be minimal.  The central operation of a fundamental unit of 10-20 J, the hydrogen line frequency, and the Bohr orbital time for ground state electrons would be required for the relocalized manifestation. Similar quantified convergence occurs for the ~1012 parallel states within space per Planck’s time which solve for phase-shift increments where Casimir and magnetic forces intersect.  Experimental support for these interpretations and potential applications is considered. The multiple, convergent solutions of basic universal quantities suggest that translations of spatial axes into adjacent spatial states and the transposition of four dimensional configurations any where and any time within the universe may be accessed but would require alternative perspectives and technologies.

Magnetophoresis offers many advantages for manipulating magnetic targets in microsystems. The integration of micro-flux concentrators and micro-magnets allows achieving large field gradients and therefore large reachable magnetic forces. However, the associated fabrication techniques are often complex and costly, and besides, they put specific constraints on the geometries. Magnetic composite polymers provide a promising alternative in terms of simplicity and fabrication costs, and they open new perspectives for the microstructuring, design, and integration of magnetic functions. In this review, we propose a state of the art of research works implementing magnetic polymers to trap or sort magnetic micro-beads or magnetically labeled cells in microfluidic devices.

AbstractThe formation of Saturn and its disk is simulated using a new N-body self-gravitational model. It is demonstrated that the formation of the disk and the planet is the result of gravitational contraction of a slowly rotated particle cloud that have a shape of slightly deformed sphere. The sphere was flattened by a coefficient of 0.8 along the axis of rotation. During the gravitational contraction, the major part of the cloud transformed into a planet and a minor part transformed into a disk. The thin structured disk is a result of the electromagnetic interaction in which the magnetic forces acting on charged particles of the cloud originate in the core of the planet. The simulation program gives such parameters of Saturn as the escape velocity of about 35 km/s at the surface, density, rotational velocities of the rings and temperature distribution.
