Researchers in Qatar target cancer and a national collaboration with CERN Researchers in Qatar target cancer and a national collaboration with CERN At the European Organization for Nuclear Research, or Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN), physicists and engineers use the world’s largest and most sophisticated scientific instruments to study the simplest forms of matter. This facility most recently drew worldwide attention as the grounds of the recently discovered Higgs boson, a discovery that won the 2013 Nobel Prize in physics.
Researchers build the case for wind and wave studies in Qatar Researchers build the case for wind and wave studies in Qatar For the first time, fine detail about the wind and wave conditions around the coast of Qatar has been recorded. By arranging the most sophisticated equipment available on the edge of a 500-meter pier extending into the Gulf, a research team at Texas A&M University at Qatar (TAMUQ) has collected detailed readings of air and wave currents around the peninsula. Their findings highlight a dearth of information on coastal conditions that have the potential to offer vital insights into many sectors.
Haya H Al Muhannadi / Sunday, August 1, 2010 / Categories: Publications Accessible solitary wave families of the generalized nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equation Author(s): Zhong, WP (Zhong, W. -P.); Belic, M (Belic, M.); Huang, TW (Huang, T. W.); Xie, RH (Xie, R. H.) Two-dimensional accessible solitary wave families of the generalized nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equation are obtained by utilizing superpositions of various single accessible solitary solutions. Specific values of soliton parameters are selected as initial conditions and the superposition of known single solitary solutions in the highly nonlocal regime are launched into the nonlocal nonlinear medium with a Gaussian response function, to obtain novel numerical solitary solutions of improved stability. Our results reveal that in nonlocal media with the Gaussian response the higher-order spatial accessible solitary families can exist in various forms, such as asymmetric necklace, asymmetric fractional, and symmetric multipolar necklace solitons.
