Ocean Energy : Ocean Thermal Energy Conservation (Otec) As Additional Electricity Source For Nigeria, Haruna Abdu Zailani Dec 1998

Ocean Energy : Ocean Thermal Energy Conservation (Otec) As Additional Electricity Source For Nigeria, Haruna Abdu Zailani

World Maritime University Dissertations

Oceans cover more than 70% of the total surface of the earth and are vast resources of energy. Ocean energy can be retrieved by using adequate ocean energy systems that work on either temperature gradients, salinity gradients, density gradients, the flow of ocean winds, currents, waves, or tidal energy, all of which are renewable. They are never exhausted. The further the ocean energy systems are tested the more prosperous ocean energy becomes. It is certainly the energy for the future, especially when man finishes all the reserves of fossil fuels. Nigeria being the leading African nation, endowed with resources and …

Heavy Metal Pollution In Lake Victoria, J. W. A. Kandoro, M. H. Mikidadi Dec 1998

Heavy Metal Pollution In Lake Victoria, J. W. A. Kandoro, M. H. Mikidadi

Tanzania Journal of Science

This work presents the Energy dispersive x-ray flouorences (EDXRF) analysis of water and plant samplesfrom Lake Victoria at Mwanza for heavy metal pollution. Water and plant (Water hyacinth) samples were collected from Lake Victoria around Mwanza municipality from twenty seven locations. There were varying elemental concentrations from different locations reflecting the activities carried out in the vicinity of the lake. Maximum concentration values of up to 1640 mg/L for Pb, 23.3 mg/L for Mn, 42.8 mg/L for Cr, 15.1mg/L for Pb, 23.3mg/L for Cu, and 742.5 mg/L for Zn, were observed. Possible sources of the elements are discussed, from which …


A Person Computer Programme For Fitting Of Moessbauer Spectra, J. W. A. Kandoro Dec 1998

A Person Computer Programme For Fitting Of Moessbauer Spectra, J. W. A. Kandoro

Tanzania Journal of Science

A Computer code for fitting spectra obtained in Moessbauer spectroscopy on a personal computer is described. The code is designed around a least-squares routine which fits the characteristics peaks in a Moessbauer spectrum with Lorentzian shaped peaks and the background of a spectrum with a polynomial function. The least squares routing is based on the Newton-Raphson algorithm. The method is implemented in a computer program written in quick basic for which prove that the program in quick basic for IBM compatible personal computer. Tests are described which prove that the program is able to provide reliable values for the parameters.


Bottom Reflection In A Shallow Tidal Bay, S B. Mahongo Dec 1998

Bottom Reflection In A Shallow Tidal Bay, S B. Mahongo

Tanzania Journal of Science

Bottom reflection of short-wave radiation was investigated using measurements taken from a platform in a shallow tidal lagoon on the eastern coast of Zanzibar, the Chwaka bay. Measurements were taken from 18 January to 9 February, 1996. The investigation was facilitated using a simple model of shallow water reflectance. The presumption that bottom reflection plays a significant role in the heat budget of the bay has been found to be incorrect. The computed mean value of the flux due to bottom reflection during this period was only of the order of 2Wm-2, and it is unlikely that variations …

Aristotle On Existential Import And Nonreferring Subjects, Scott Carson Dec 1998

Aristotle On Existential Import And Nonreferring Subjects, Scott Carson

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

Much contemporary philosophy o f language has shown considerable interest in the relation between our linguistic practice and our metaphysical commitments, and this interest has begun to influence work in the history of philosophy as well. In his Categories and De interpretatione, Aristotle presents an analysis of language that can be read as intended to illustrate an isomorphism between the ontology of the real world and how we talk about that world. Our understanding of language is at least in part dependent upon our understanding of the relationships that exist among the enduring πράγματα that we come across in our …


Search For Higgs Bosons Produced In Association With A Vector Boson In Pp̅ Collisions At √S = 1.8 Tev, F. Abe, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration Dec 1998

Search For Higgs Bosons Produced In Association With A Vector Boson In Pp̅ Collisions At √S = 1.8 Tev, F. Abe, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration

Kenneth Bloom Publications

We search for Higgs bosons produced in association with a massive vector boson in 91 ± 7 pb-1 of pp̅ collisions at √s =1.8 TeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We assume the Higgs scalar H0 decays to a bb̅ pair with branching ratio β, and we consider the hadronic decays of the vector boson V (W or Z). Observations are consistent with background expectations. We place 95% confidence level upper limits on σ (pp̅→H0V) β as a function of the scalar mass (MH0) …


Search For The Decays BS0,BD0 → E±Μ± And Pati-Salam Leptoquarks, F. Abe, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration Dec 1998

Search For The Decays BS0,BD0 → E±Μ± And Pati-Salam Leptoquarks, F. Abe, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration

Kenneth Bloom Publications

We have searched for the decays Bs0→ e±μ± and Bd0 → e±μ± using a 102 pb-1 data sample of pp̅ collisions at √s =1.8 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We set upper limits on the branching fractions of Ɓ(Bs0 → e±μ±) < 6.1(8.2) X 10-6 and Ɓ(Bd0 → e±μ±) < 3.5(4.5) X 10-6 at 90(95)% confidence level. Using these limits, we set lower bounds on the corresponding Pati-Salam leptoquark masses and find that MLQ(B …
