Despite of recent developments in observational techniques, the diversity of the X-ray observations of nonmagnetic Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) are still not entirely understood. In this work, we plan to review the X-ray spectral characteristics of such systems during their quiescence state which in general explained by the multi-temperature plasma emission models and also, the CV spectra that show dominantly hard X-ray emission with few sources that reveal soft X-ray/EUV blackbody emission. For this purpose, we have selected several unpublished nonmagnetic CV data of three sources SS Aur, EY Cyg and TW Pic taken and archived by XMM-Newton and SWIFT Observatories. Using various data analysis techniques, we will accomplish spectral and temporal analysis for a better understanding of dwarf nova phenomenon and the nature of accretion flow and geometry in these systems.

Analyses of extracellular protein production in Bacillus subtilis - I: Genome-scale metabolic model reconstruction based on updated gene-enzyme-reaction data
KOCABAŞ, PINAR; Çalık, Pınar; ÇALIK GARCİA, GÜZİDE; Ozdamar, Tuncer H. (Elsevier BV, 2017-11-15)
Bacillus subtilis genome-scale model (GEM) reconstruction was stimulated by the recent sequencing and consequent re-annotations. The updated gene-enzyme-reaction data were collected from databases to reconstruct B. subtilis reaction network BsRN-2016 containing 1144 genes linked to 1955 reactions and 1103 metabolites. Thermodynamic analysis was conducted to identify reversibility and directionality of the reactions. By elimination of unconnected-reactions from BsRN-2016, reconstruction process of the first ...
Precision measurement of the structure of the CMS inner tracking system using nuclear interactions
Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2018-10-01)
The structure of the CMS inner tracking system has been studied using nuclear interactions of hadrons striking its material. Data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded in 2015 at the LHC are used to reconstruct millions of secondary vertices from these nuclear interactions. Precise positions of the beam pipe and the inner tracking system elements, such as the pixel detector support tube, and barrel pixel detector inner shield and support rails, are determined using thes...
Experimental observations of intersonic crack growth in asymmetrically loaded unidirectional composite plates
Çöker, Demirkan (2001-01-01)
Some recent experimental observations of highly dynamic crack growth events in thick unidirectional composites are presented. The specimens used in this study were 48-ply thick unidirectional graphite-epoxy composite plates which were either symmetrically (mode I) or asymmetrically (mode II) loaded by impact in a one-point bend configuration with an edge pre-notch machined in the fibre direction. Moderate impact speeds of up to 57 m s(-1) were used. The lateral shearing interferometric technique of coherent...
Thermally assisted variable range hopping in Tl4S3Se crystal
ZIQAN, ABDELHALIM M; QASRAWI, A F; MOHAMMAD, ABDULFTAH H; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2015-6)
In this study, a modified model for the application of the thermionic and hopping current conduction mechanisms in the presence of continuous mixed conduction is investigated, discussed, experimented and simulated. It is observed that there exists a contribution from the hopping conductivity to the total conduction even at temperature ranges where the thermionic emission is mainly dominant. The contribution weight of a specific mechanism at particular temperature range is estimated. In addition, a modifi...
Design of a circular microphone array for panoramic audio recording and reproduction : Microphone directivity
Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin; Cvetkovic, Zoran (2010-05-22)
Design of a circularly symmetric multichannel recording and reproduction system is discussed in this paper. The system consists of an array of directional microphones evenly distributed on a circle and a matching array of loudspeakers. The relation between the microphone directivity and the radius of the circular array is established within the context of time-intensity stereophony. The microphone directivity design is identified as a constrained linear least squares optimisation problem. Results of a subje...
