Effects of weak planetary rotation on the stability and dynamics of internal stratified jets

The earth's rotation causes the Coriolis effect, which deflects massive air and water flows toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This phenomenon greatly impacts global wind patterns and ocean currents, and is only significant for large-scale and long-duration geophysical phenomena such as hurricanes. ...

Simplest method of measuring nanoparticles’ size and size distribution on the surface and on sub-surface layers

Recently there has been an emphasis for characterizing nanostructured materials such as twodimensional (2D) and zero-dimensional (0D) materials. For example, graphene, carbon nanotubes, etc. are two-dimensional (2D) materials. Quantum dots (QDs) [1] is an example of a zero-dimensional (0D) material because the nano particles of the QDs do not form a network; instead they remain by themselves. See ref [2] for a review of 0D, 1D, etc. materials. ...

Nanoscience and nanotechnology

Nanoscience and nanotechnology is a very promising field. It is the study of extremely small things in different domains of science. Glass staining with gold or silver particles are kind of ancient nanotechnology. Richard Feynman has been credited with coming up with the concept of nanotechnology. ...
