The Specific Heat Of Boson-Fermion Pair Condensate In Optimally-Doped Cuprates
(Journal of Multidisciplinary Engineering Science and Technology, 2021-12-12)Recent studies have shown that the interaction between a finite momentum Cooperpair boson and a fermion supports superconductivity in cuprates. Specifically, the occurrence of a superconducting energy gap in cuprates is ... -
DFT calculations of elastic, electronic and thermal properties of TiB2Mo
(Oxford Open Materials Science, 2022-02-02)Ceramics are materials with good mechanical properties; however, low fracture toughness, intrinsic brittleness and poor resistance against oxidation at high temperatures are challenges limiting their applications. TiB2Mo ... -

Further Generalization of Unitary Quasi-Equivalence of Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2020-10-06)In this paper, we further generalize the class of n-Unitary Quasi-Equivalence by extending this study to (n,m)-Unitary Quasi-Equivalence. We investigate the properties of this class and also the relation of this equivalence ... -
On Class (Q )
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2020-11-12)Class (Q) operators was introduced and studied by Jibril in (quote). In this paper , we introduce and study the “cousins” to this class, namely class (Q∗). An operator T ∈ B(H) is said to belong to class (Q∗) if T ∗2T 2 ... -
On N Quasi D-Operator Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2020-01-11): In this paper, we introduce the class of N quasi D-operator acting on the usual Hilbert space H over the complex plane. An operator T is said to be an N quasi D-operator if T(T ∗2 (T D) 2 ) = N(T ∗T D) 2T, where ... -
On Some generalization of Unitary Quasi-Equivalence of Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2020-01-01)In this paper, we generalize the class of Unitary Quasi-Equivalence by extending this study to n-Unitary Quasi-Equivalence and investigate the properties of this class. We investigate the relation of this equivalence class ... -
On (α,β)-Class (Q) Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics and its Applications, 2021-01-12)In this paper, we introduce a new class of operator, the class of (α, β)-Class (Q) operator acting on a complex Hilbert space H. An operator T ∈ B(H) is said to be (α, β)-Class (Q) if α 2T∗2T 2 ≤ (T∗T) 2 ≤ β 2T ∗2T 2 for ... -
A technological infrastructure assessment framework for telemedicine adoption in Kenyan level four hospitals
(KIBU, 2019-06-12)Telemedicine is the use of telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance, it helps eliminate distance barriers and can improve access to medical services that would ... -
Streptococcal meningitis in a five-month-old male lamb
(1999)Streptococcus species cause a wide variety of diseases in food animals, including septicaemia, mastitis, meningitis, encephalitis and pneumonia5 . Meningitis due to Streptococcus spp. is commonly a complication of bacteraemia ... -
Water intoxication in cattle
(1999)Water intoxication is a condition that is common in cattle, and has also been reported in other domestic animals and man. A comprehensive description of the condition is lacking. For a better understanding of the condition, ... -

(Elsevier, 2000)Application of ultrasonography in prevalence studies of hydatid cysts in goats in north-western Turkana, Kenya and Toposaland, southern Sudan. Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 67:251-255 A study was done ... -
A study of cystic echinococcosis in slaughter animals in three selected areas of northern Turkana, Kenya
(Elsevier, 2002-02-27)In an attempt to establish the prevalence of cystic echinococcosis, a study was conducted in slaughter animals in three divisions of northern Turkana, Kenya. A total of 5752 goats, 588 sheep, 381 cattle and 70 camels were ... -
