Fission Barrier of Superheavy Nuclei and Persistence of Shell Effects at High Spin: Cases of 254No and 220Th

2014

We report on the first measurement of the fission barrier height in a heavy shell-stabilized nucleus. The fission barrier height of 254No is measured to be Bf=6.0±0.5  MeV at spin 15ℏ and, by extrapolation, Bf=6.6±0.9  MeV at spin 0ℏ. This information is deduced from the measured distribution of entry points in the excitation energy versus spin plane. The same measurement is performed for 220Th and only a lower limit of the fission barrier height can be determined: Bf(I)8  MeV. Comparisons with theoretical fission barriers test theories that predict properties of superheavy elements.

The Role of Corporate Social Responsibility and Its Influences on Vietnamese Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Ho Chi Minh City

2020

In the new era, the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for business organizations is a matter of primary concern and has been researched by scholars around the world. Interest in CSR in business enterprises is often neglected due to its high-cost factor and the enterprises only focused on its operations and profitability for the existence of a business. If the enterprises have a good CSR policy within their development strategy, they will attain greater success. It was deemed that the empirical study adopted a descriptive survey method, 103 data samples were selected from the SMEs for analysis. The results indicated that SME management who adopted and implemented CSR polici…

Comparisons of individual bitterness perception and vegetable liking and consumption among Danish consumers:A pilot study for a cross-cultural sensor…

2012

In order to enhance the consumption of bitter and strong tasting vegetables such as cabbages and root vegetables, it is required to identify potential mediators of sociodemographic–diet relationships. In this context a consumer field studywas conducted in Denmark which comprised a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, a bitter threshold value test kit with quinineand a preference test with two samples of carrots differing in the degree of bitterness. All tests were conducted outside the laboratory, and the subjects (n=116, aged 18 to 79) were recruited during two different events at two sites in April and June 2011.Data was subjected to multivariate data analysis in order to eluci…

Quality-control procedure for dry-process rubberised asphalt mastics

2019

Crumb Rubber (CR) can be incorporated into asphalt mixes via the dry process by directly adding CR into the mixer together with other asphalt mixture’s components, or with the wet process where the CR is used as a bitumen modifier. While the wet process allows an accurate monitoring of the interaction between CR and bitumen, the lack of control represents a main issue in the dry process. In fact, in the latter the CR particles keep swelling during hauling and possibly also after paving operations, often causing workability issues and premature failures. This study wants to provide a methodology that could help quality control procedures of bitumen/filler/rubber systems during mixing, haulin…
