Cubic structured nickel-zinc ferrite nanoparticles (Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4) have been synthesized by thermal treatment method. This simple procedure employed an aqueous solution containing only metal nitrates as precursors, polyvinyl pyrrolidone as a capping agent, and deionized water as a solvent. The solution was thoroughly stirred for 2 hour, dried at 353 K for 3 hour, the dried material crushed into powder and calcined the powder at 873 K to remove organic substances and crystallize the particles. The microstructure properties of the prepared ferrite nanoparticles were measured using FTIR, XRD, TEM, and EDX and the magnetic properties were determined using VSM and EPR. The average particle size increased from 7 to 22 nm with the increase of calcination temperature from 723 to 873 K. The saturation magnetization, coercivity field, and g-factor increased respectively from 24 emu/g, 11 G, and 2.0673at 723 K to 38 emu/g, 60 G, and 2.1227 at 873 K. This method offers simplicity, a low cost, and an environmentally friendly operation since it produces no by-product effluents.

Green Synthesis of Calcium Oxide Nanoparticles and Its ApplicationsIJERA Editor
Green synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles is gaining considerable interest due to the use of environmentally friendly reactants and room temperature synthesis. This is the most preferred method of preparation as it makes use of pollution free chemicals and encourages the use of non-toxic solvents such as water and plants extracts. The present study is proposed with an objective to synthesize CaO nanoparticles by the eco-friendly green synthesis using environmentally benign papaya leaf extract and Green Tea extract. The obtained CaO nanoparticles have been characterized by UV- Vis, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) studies. The antibacterial and photocatalytic activity of the calcium oxide nanoparticles were also analysed.

The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

3. Introduction
In nanotechnology, a nanoparticle (10-9m) is defined as a small object that behaves as
a whole unit in terms of its transport and properties
The science and engineering of nanosystems is one of the most challenging and
fastest growing sectors of nanotechnology.
The first scientific description of the properties of nanoparticles was provide in 1857
by Michael Faraday in his famous paper “Experimental relations of gold to light”.
The 1950’s and the 1960’s saw the world turning its focus towards the use of
nanoparticles in the field of drug delivery.
The word pomegranate literaly means “seeded apple”.
The word “pomegranate (Punica grannatum”) came from the Latin for “fruit many
seeds”.
4. Scope of the Research Work
An important challenge in technology is to modify optical, electric and electronic
properties of nanoparticles by controlling their size and shape.
Biomimetic synthesis of nanoparticles has opened its doors to a world of
nanoparticles with easy preparation protocols, less toxicity and a wide range of
applications according to their size and shape.
Nanoparticles of desired size and shape have been obtained successfully using
plants extract.
The field of nano biotechnology is still in its infancy and more research needs to be
focused on the mechanistics of nanoparticle formation which may lead to fine tuning
of the process ultimately leading to the biosynthesis of nanoparticles with a strict
control over the size and shape parameters.
5. Objective of the Research Work
To biosynthesis nanoparticle by using plant extract
To characterize the nanoparticles by UV-visible spectroscopy
To find out wavelength of nanoparticles
To characterize the nanoparticles by FTIR spectroscopy
To characterize the nanoparticles by XRD
To characterize the nanoparticles by AFM
To characterize the nanoparticles by SEM

The metal oxide of copper and iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized
using by pomegranate seed and peel extract.
The absorption peak of copper oxide and iron oxide nanoparticles formed in
the reaction media has absorbance peak around 380nm and 300nm.
XRD study the copper and iron oxide nanoparticles are crystalline in nature
and the size is around 24nm.
TEM analysis reveals that the copper and iron oxide nanoparticles were
spherical in shape and the size is around 24nm.
The surface morphology of the copper and iron oxide nanoparticle was
observed from the SEM analysis. The average size from 15 nm to24 nm.
Atomic force morphology reveals that the copper and iron oxide
nanoparticles are spherical shape and size ranging between 14 nm to 25 nm.
The copper and iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated for antibacterial
activities against human pathogens viz. Bacillus cereus, pseudomonas and
staphylococcus albus, proteus. Bacillus cereus show good antimicrobial
activity compare with other human pathogens.
