Harary and Miller (1983) started the research on the (restricted) size Ramsey number for a pair of small graphs. They obtained the values for some pairs of small graphs with order not more than four. In the same year, Faudree and Sheehan continued the research and extended the result to all pairs of small graphs with order not more than four. Moreover, in 1998, Lortz and Mengenser gave the size Ramsey number and the restricted size Ramsey number for all pairs of small forests with order not more than five. Recently, we gave the restricted size Ramsey number for a path of order three and any…

The current study provides a new class of ξ(as)-QSO defined on 2D simplex and classifies it into 18 non-conjugate (isomorphic) classes. This classification is based on their conjugacy and the remuneration of coordinates. The current study also examines the limiting points associated with the behavior of trajectories for four classes defined on 2D simplex.

Urea derivatives are extensively used in the pharmaceutical industry. However, the unsatisfactory level of their membrane penetration requires further modification of the structures with stronger lipophillic properties. Phenylurea has a phenyl group that enables easier membrane penetration as a result of stronger pharmacological activity. Activity prediction was conducted by docking experiments and molecular dynamics, performed with Molegro Virtual Docker 5.5 using checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) enzyme with ID PDB: 2YWP. ADMET prediction was applied to collect data using the pkCSM tool. N-(phenyl…

In this investigation a new subclass of bi-univalent functions is established that is defined in the open unit disk Δ={𐌶 ∈ ℂ: |𐌶| < 1} and are endowed with the Sălăgean type q-difference operator. Then, Hankel inequalities for the new function class are obtained and several related consequences of the results are also stated.

Oligosuccinimide (OSI) is an oligomer with several repeating units of succinimide. In this study, OSI was synthesized by thermal condensation between maleic anhydride and ammonium carbonate. The chemical structure of the synthesized compound was confirmed by FTIR and NMR spectroscopy as well as LC-MS characterization. Evaluation of its performance as corrosion inhibitor and the adsorption mechanism on a carbon steel surface in CO2-saturated 1% (w/v) NaCl solution was performed using electrochemical techniques (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization) and…

Due to the declining number of available nuclear reactors capable of Tc-99m production and tight regulations related to uranium enrichment, cyclotron-based Tc-99m production has recently been suggested as a new method to help ease Tc-99m supply shortages. In this investigation, a solid natural MoO3 target was irradiated using 11-MeV proton beams at variable proton doses. The proton doses were varied by varying the irradiation time while keeping the proton beam current constant at 20 µA. At the end of the bombardment, the post-irradiated solid MoO3 targets were analyzed for their radioactive…

Biak Island is thought to have originated from the Australian Continental passive margin in the Mesozoic. This passive margin underwent tectonic collision to form the bedrock of Biak Island during the Paleogene. East Biak is covered by limestone, which is an obstacle to knowing the deeper stratigraphy.
