Practicing Economy of Nature through Traditional Rice Variety Conservation: A Case Study from West Bengal, India
Abstract: AbstractTraditional rice varieties (TRVs), continue to be cultivated defying the allurement of high-profits from cultivating high yielding varieties. The reasons why TRVs are still cultivated, withstanding extreme pressures leading to disappearance of many TRVs are interesting, especially for their associated non-market values. This study documents 50 TRVs being cultivated by farmers (n= 488) in three districts of West-Bengal, followed by a criterion-based analysis using UPGMA algorithm applied with Bray-Curtis similarity-index …

Effect of temperature shift on Dr. JRK’s 777 oil
Abstract: AbstractThe physical and functional change of Dr. JRK’s 777 oil subjected to extreme temperature was studied. Cyclic shift or timed shift of the oil from extreme cold to ambient temperature and vice versa has not affected either physical or functional change. However the initial storage temperature is found to have a great role in influencing the above feature of the oil. We have performed acid value and iodine value to …

Quark Contribution to the Magnetic Moments of Hypernuclei with Closed Core +Λ Configuration
Abstract: Abstract: We have estimated the magnetic moments of these nuclei in the Hybrid Quark Model. When the Λ-hyperon forms a six-quark bag with the core nucleons, the Schmidt values get modified. In the case of hypernuclei with closed core+configuration, the quark correction ranges between 0.1 to 2.1 %, the deviation being largest for. Earlier studies have shown that the comparison of predicted magnetic moments, with those of others calculations results …
