First principles calculations based on Density Functional Theory were carried out to study hydrogen storage capacity of sodium doped graphene. The pure graphene exhibits low hydrogen storage capacity hence we modified graphene by doping of sodium. Sodium occupies the empty (hollow) position on graphene with average carbon sodium bond-length of 2.64 Å. This investigation predicts that positively charged sodium atom on graphene physisorbed maximum six hydrogen molecules with the average adsorption energy 0.20 eV/H2 amounting gravimetric density of 9.2 wt%. Mulliken population analysis shows that the charge transfer from sodium to graphene is responsible for higher hydrogen uptake than the pure graphene sheet.

This study explored males and females binary translations from perspective of gender and ideology. The investigation of males and females gender based ideological behavior was been accomplished following Weatherall (2002) model. Further, for this purpose, English novels of Wuthering Heights andStrangerwhich have been translated into Persian by male and female translators were selected to be used as the corpus. The sentences, phrases and words of ideology and gender load were extracted and investigated according to the three categories of character description, ideology and gender stereotypes and disappearing of agent effect of Weatherall (2002). The comparisons were accompanied by examples. The comparisons indicated that these translationsare not under gender ideological considerations and neither males nor females describe each other as negative or positive; though, cases of male negative description of males and females negative description of females reported. Moreover, the results of the study indicated that neither males nor females give cause of doing or acceptance of an obligatory responsibility to each other. There were cases of assigning agency roles to cross sex characters in the results, but they were not significant and worth mentioning. Lastly, the translator gender ideology did not affect translation.

The global volume of immigration is high in absolute terms, but low in relative terms. The International Integration and Refugee Association estimated 190 million international migrants in 2005, about 3 percent of The Middle East, some parts of Europe, small areas of South East Asia, and a few spots in the West Indies have the highest percentages of immigration population recorded by the UN Census 2005. The International Organization for Migration said there are more than 200 million migrants around the world today. Europe hosted the largest number of immigrants, with 70.6 million people in 2005, the latest year for which figures are available. North America, with over 45.1 million immigrants, is second, followed by Asia, which hosts nearly 25.3 million. Most of today's migrant workers come from Asia.[1].

The job- employed fit is one of fundamental issues in human resource management. It has been improved that, this fit is an organizational necessity for the human source profitability. So, the main aim in this research is to investigate the job- employed fit and the effects on female personnel's emotional intelligence among governmental organizations in Kermanshah. This research is conducted based on descriptive and surveying method; the instruments to collect data include queries; the Salovey & Mayer standard emotional intelligence query is used to investigate the emotional intelligence; and the knowledge, skill and ability queries from international Occupational Information Network (O*NET) are implemented to investigate the job- employed fit, and each query includes, in average, 21 questions. The perpetuity was 0/79 for emotional intelligence query and 0/81 for job- employed fit query and because the Cronbach ? is more than 0/7 for both queries, therefore both queries has enough perpetuity. The considered statistical society includes 300 female personnel from governmental organizations in Kermanshah. Based on random sampling method, some category was selected as statistical sample, and 156 queries were collected, finally. We used Colmogrov- Smirnov test to determine the data normality and the results gained from the test supported it; the research theories were tested using absolute T-test and some positive and considerable effect was demonstrated. The results show that in considered society, the job- fit personnel gain higher emotional intelligence scores. Another result gained in this research indicated that just 40% of female personnel are completely job- fit and therefore these organizations have an unstable situation.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational innovation in Payame Noor University of Tehran. In order to collect transformational leadership data Bass and Avolio questionnaire was used and to collect organizational innovation data a researcher-made questionnaire was used. The reliability of researcher-made questionnaire was calculated to be 0.90% and 86% respectively by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. To analyze the data, Pearson correlation test and stepwise regression were used. The results of Pearson correlation test indicated that there is a positive and significant relationship between transformational leadership and all its dimensions with organizational innovation. The results of structural equation modeling have been collected based on 231 questionnaires and indicate a relationship between transformational leadership and Organizational Innovation. Finally, the results of the research will be discussed and some recommendations will be made to improve the innovation capability of society organizations.

The pressure – volume - temperature equation of state (EOS) of Vetreloy glasses is fundamental to high- pressure science because of its widespread use as an internal pressure standard. In the present work an attempt has been made to correlate Stacey K primed EOS (SRKP-EOS) with Kushwah EOS for calculating pressure at different compression ranges from (V/V₀ = 1.0 to V/V₀ = 0.5) for four different Zr based vetreloy glasses viz. Zr₄₁Ti₁₄Cu_12.5Ni₁₀Be_22.5, Zr₄₁Ti₁₄Cu_12.5Ni₉Be_22.5C₁, Zr₄₈Nb₈Cu₁₂Fe₈Be₂₄, and (Zr_0.59Ti_0.06Cu_0.23Ni_0.13)_85.7 and obtained result is compared with available theoretical data. The result shows that at compression range V/V₀=1.0 to V/V₀=0.6 both the EOS viz SRKP-EOS and Kushwah EOS cooperate well with available theoretical data proposed by Vinet but at compression V/V₀=0.5 they show a remarkable deviation.

Nitrogen (N) fertilizer management is a challenge in potato production. Therefore, a study was carried out to known the impact of varieties and nitrogen levels on leaf chlorophyll content and tuber size of potato. All possible combination of two varieties of potato viz. Kufri Sadabahar (V1) and Kufri Surya (V2) and five nitrogen levels (0, 75, 150, 225 and 300 kg N/ha) were replicated thrice in factorial randomize block design. Two year pooled data shows that vareties did not varies significantly for chlorophyll content ‘a’ and ‘b’ of potato leaves but the it was affected significantly by nitrogen levels and recorded highest with treatment N3 (0.74 and 0.90 mg/ g leaves, chlorophyll ‘a’ and ‘b’, respectively). Interaction effect of treatment V1N4 gave maximum chlorophyll ‘a’ content but variation among treatments interaction were non significant for chlorophyll ‘b’ content. 0-25 g and >75 g tuber number recorded higher in Kufri Surya (V2) having 255.91 and 275.70 thousand/ha, respectively, while, yield of 0-25 g tubers higher in Kufri Sadabahar (V1) i.e. 1.58 t/ha, other grade tuber yield showed non significant variation for varieties. The size of tuber was increased with increase in nitrogen levels. The number and weight of smaller size tuber observed higher with lower lever levels of nitrogen, while, number and weight of larger size tubers observed higher with higher level nitrogen. Interaction of varieties and nitrogen levels affect significantly to number and weight of different size tubers.

Iron is one of the major limiting factors and essential nutrients of microbial life. Since in nature it is not readily available in the preferred form, microorganisms produce small high affinity chelating molecules called siderophores for its acquisition. A great variation is seen in siderophore structure produced by many bacteria. There are three main kinds of siderophores known as hydroxamate, catecholate and carboxylate. Siderophores also play a critical role in the expression of virulence and development of biofilms by different microbes. Siderophore and their derivative have large application in agriculture as to increase soil fertility and biocontrol for bacterial and fungal pathogen. This review is intended to provide a general overview on siderophore along with its role and applications.

The vibrational spectroscopy of o-nitrobenzaldehyde (ONBH) by means of quantum chemical calculation has been studied. The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of ONBH have been recorded in the region 3500-50cm-1 and 4000-400cm-1 respectively. The fundamental vibrational frequencies and intensity of vibrational bands have been evaluated using density functional theory (DFT) with standard B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) basis set combinations for optimized geometries. The observed FT-IR and FT-Raman vibrational frequencies have been anlaysed and compared with theoretically predicted vibrational frequencies. The assignments of bands to various normal modes of molecule have also been carried out. The electric dipole moment (?) and the first hyper polarazibility (?) values of the investigated molecule have been computed using DFT calculations. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occur with in the molecule.
