With the technological advancement in recent years and the widespread use of magnetism in every sector of the current technology, a search for a low-cost magnetic material has been more important ...than ever. The discovery of magnetism in alternate materials such as metal chalcogenides with abundant atomic constituents would be a milestone in such a scenario. However, considering the multitude of possible chalcogenide configurations, predictive computational modeling or experimental synthesis is an open challenge. Here, we recourse to a stacked generalization machine learning model to predict magnetic moment (µB) in hexagonal Fe-based bimetallic chalcogenides, Fe
A
B; A represents Ni, Co, Cr, or Mn, and B represents S, Se, or Te, and x and y represent the concentration of respective atoms. The stacked generalization model is trained on the dataset obtained using first-principles density functional theory. The model achieves MSE, MAE, and R
values of 1.655 (µB)
, 0.546 (µB), and 0.922 respectively on an independent test set, indicating that our model predicts the compositional dependent magnetism in bimetallic chalcogenides with a high degree of accuracy. A generalized algorithm is also developed to test the universality of our proposed model for any concentration of Ni, Co, Cr, or Mn up to 62.5% in bimetallic chalcogenides.
Tumour sampling is indispensable to diagnostic and therapeutic decision making. Thus, 18F-FDG PET/CT has the potential to accurately discriminate between viable and non-viable tissues due to its ...ability to characterise the metabolism of visible tissues. This study's objective was to evaluate the incremental utility of 18F-FDG PET-CT-guided metabolic biopsy in individuals with suspected lesions and a previous negative anatomical biopsy. This study included a total of 190 consecutive patients with probable malignancy and who had experienced a previous unsuccessful anatomical biopsy who underwent PET-CT-guided metabolic biopsy. We retrospectively analysed the patients' medical records and imaging investigations to assess demographics, complications, pathologies, and final clinical diagnoses. Using multivariate logistic regression, correlation between several confounding factors that lead to post-procedural problems was evaluated. Adequate material was obtained in all patients, and 162 (85%) were found to be positive for malignancy with a diagnostic yield of 96.9%. In 25 (13.1%) patients, post-procedural complications were reported, with pneumothorax being the most prevalent issue. In evaluating oncological patients, metabolic biopsy provides a safer alternative therapy with a high diagnostic yield and comparable complications. PET-CT, being an essential component of cancer staging, may serve as a one-stop shop for the management of these patients' conditions.
We present a new spherically symmetric solution of the general relativistic field equations in isotropic coordinates. The solution is having positive finite central pressure and positive finite ...central density. The ratio of pressure and density is less than one and casualty condition is obeyed at the centre. Further, the outmarch of pressure, density and pressure-density ratio, and the ratio of sound speed to light is monotonically decreasing. The solution is well behaved for all the values of
u
lying in the range 0<
u
≤.186. The central red shift and surface red shift are positive and monotonically decreasing. Further, we have constructed a neutron star model with all degree of suitability and by assuming the surface density

The accretion of matter onto a massive black hole is believed to feed the relativistic plasma jets found in many active galactic nuclei (AGN). Although some AGN accelerate particles to energies ...exceeding 10¹² electron volts and are bright sources of very-high-energy (VHE) γ-ray emission, it is not yet known where the VHE emission originates. Here we report on radio and VHE observations of the radio galaxy Messier 87, revealing a period of extremely strong VHE γ-ray flares accompanied by a strong increase of the radio flux from its nucleus. These results imply that charged particles are accelerated to very high energies in the immediate vicinity of the black hole.
Different microstructures of Ni-Ti- and Ni-Ti-Fe-based shape memory alloys were subjected to thermal cycling: dipping in liquid nitrogen, for approximately 5 minutes, and then bringing it back to ...room temperature or austenite (cubic: B2) ↔ martensite (monoclinic: B19′) reversible solid-state phase transformation. Direct electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) observations could bring out aspects of microstructural irreversibilities: namely, changes in grain size, misorientation buildup, and presence of retained martensite. The average changes in grain size (Δ
d
) differed by almost 2 to 4 times between different microstructures. The highest Δ
d
was typically observed in structures having maximum clustering of fine (
d

m) grains. The sample with highest Δ
d
was also subjected to multiple thermal cycling. Although Δ
d
scaled linearly with
d
after the first thermal cycle, the scatter increased during subsequent thermal cycles. Grain or orientations deviating from the linear behavior were clearly anisotropic crystallographically. With repeated thermal cycling, the patterns of changes in Δ
d
, austenite misorientation, and retained martensite content were similar. A phenomenological model or hypothesis, based on 40 deg
orientation relationship between austenite and martensite phases, was proposed to address the observed patterns of microstructural irreversibility.
In this paper we have presented a method of obtaining varieties of new parametric classes of spherically symmetric analytic solutions of the general relativistic field equations in canonical ...coordinates. A number of previously known classes of solutions has been rediscovered which describe perfect fluid balls with infinite central pressure and infinite central density though their ratio is positively finite and less then one. From the solutions of one of the class we have constructed a causal model of polytrope with constant sound speed Corresponding to the polytrope model we have maximized the Neutron star mass 3.26 M

with the linear dimensions 32.27 kms with surface red shift 0.7355 and for other class we have constructed a causal model in which outmarch of pressure and density is monotonically decreasing and pressure–density ratio is positive and less than 1 throughout with in the ball. Corresponding to this model we have maximized the Neutron star mass 3.09 M

with the linear dimensions 30.55 kms with surface red shifts 0.5811.
Three-dimensional structures of complexes of the SH2 domain of the v-src oncogene product with two phosphotyrosyl peptides have been determined by X-ray crystallography at resolutions of 1.5 and 2.0 ...A, respectively. A central antiparallel beta-sheet in the structure is flanked by two alpha-helices, with peptide binding mediated by the sheet, intervening loops and one of the helices. The specific recognition of phosphotyrosine involves amino-aromatic interactions between lysine and arginine side chains and the ring system in addition to hydrogen-bonding interactions with the phosphate.
In this paper we present a new class of nonsingular solutions representing time dependent balls of perfect fluid with matter-radiation in general relativity.

From this solution we constructed a quasar model by assuming the life time of the quasar of ≈10

In this paper, a simple and efficient strategy of one-pot synthesis of Ag doped TiO2/ZnO photocatalyst was developed using hydrothermal process. Simultaneous crystallization of Ag and ZnO crystals ...from their precursor solution containing P25 (TiO2) NPs could form effectively bonded Ag/TiO2/ZnO composite photocatalyst during hydrothermal treatment. Several analytical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy have been used to characterize the resulting Ag/TiO2/ZnO photocatalyst. Results showed that ZnO nano-flowers doped with TiO2 and Ag NPs were formed by this simple facile one-step process. The unique properties of Ag NPs on binary semiconductor composite not only provide the decreased rate of electron–hole separation but also prevent from the loss of photocatalyst during recovery due to the fixed attachment of Ag and TiO2 NPs on the surface of flower shaped large ZnO particles. Therefore, as-synthesized composite is an economically and environmentally friendly photocatalyst.
