Recent Development to Track Contraband using Muon
Abstract: The muon is one of nature’s fundamental particles discovered in 1937 by Carl Anderson. A muon is an elementary subatomic particle similar to electron, but with a mass approximately 207 times greater and, sometimes it is called as a “heavy electron”. Muons are generated naturally when cosmic rays collide with atoms in earth’s upper atmosphere and, then raining down all the times upon the surface of earth. Muons can be …

Energy Time Scale Theory
Abstract: Time is the scale for the measurement of the various activities happening in the whole universe. Therefore, it also can be commented that, "Time is the scale for the measurement of the rate of the change of the energy from one form to another into its various states. That means the range of the various states of the energy starts from string and waves and reaches up to quantum particles, …

A New Computational Method for Dust and Gas Dynamics in Protoplanetary Discs
Abstract: The simultaneous evolution of dust and gas in protoplanetary discs regulates essential events in planet formation, such as dust accumulation, migration, and the initiation of gravitational instabilities. Nevertheless, precisely modelling this interaction continues to provide a significant computing problem owing to the extensive variety of spatial and temporal scales involved. In this study, we introduce an innovative computational framework for simulating dust-gas dynamics in protoplanetary discs, integrating a two-fluid hydrodynamical …

Unified Mass–Energy Dissolution Cosmology (UMEDC): A Staged Framework for Cosmic Energy Transformation and Late-Time Acceleration
Abstract: The ΛCDM model successfully describes the universe’s expansion but remains fundamentally descriptive: it assigns fixed densities to matter, dark matter, and dark energy without providing a unifying physical mechanism behind their coexistence or evolution. In this work, we introduce the Unified Mass–Energy Dissolution Cosmology (UMEDC), a novel framework based on the staged transformation M → DM → DE, where ordinary matter gradually dissolves into a dark-matter-like reservoir, which subsequently transforms …

Modeling Galaxy Formation in a Hierarchical Universe: A Fiducial Approach and Comparison with Observational Data
Abstract: We have developed a detailed model to understand how galaxies form in the framework of hierarchical theories of structure formation. Our model accounts for key processes like the formation and merging of dark matter halos, the heating and cooling of gas inside these halos, the regulation of star formation driven by energy from evolving stars and supernovae, galaxy mergers, and the changes in star populations over time. This approach is …
