There is a general opinion now growing that these theories miss some essential points. We propose one based on multichannel Kondo effect that is physically justifiable and confronts the data adequately. In addition to earlier data, the definitive proof of involvement of this effect has been now provided by the numerical agreement of the characteristic Kondo temperatures with the fluctuation frequencies at which Eliashberg function peaks. It is, therefore, suggested that the theory of multichannel Kondo effect be accepted as the correct theory of underdoped cuprate.The existing theoretical approaches have been unable to confront the large corpus of outstanding data on the cuprate superconductor in a persuasive and unified manner.

The effects of carbon dioxide and oxygen additions to the argon shielding gas on the weld properties in pulsed laser welding of low carbon steel is investigated. Presence of carbon dioxide and oxygen up to 10 and 15 percent respectively decreases the weld geometrical factors. But, at higher levels of additions, the weld geometrical factors will increase. It is observed that the plasma plume temperature decreases from 6000K to 5500K with the addition of 15% carbon dioxide but increases to 7700K with 25% carbon dioxide addition.

Using a generalized Green's function technique, the electronic conduction through the poly(GACT)-poly(CTGA) DNA molecule in a metal/DNA/metal model structure has been studied. Making use of a renormalization scheme we transform the Hamiltonian of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) molecule to an effective Hamiltonian corresponding to a one-dimensional chain in which the effective on-site energies are arranged as a quasiperiodic lattice according to Fibonacci sequence. The room temperature current-voltage characteristic of dsDNA has been investigated in this Fibonacci model and compared with those corresponding to poly(GACT)-poly(CTGA) DNA molecule. Our results indicate the main effect of the quasiperiodic arrangement of the nucleotides as the Fibonacci sequence on the electronic spectrum structure of the dsDNA is that the energy band gaps of the molecule have a tendency for suppression.

We investigated the dissipation of standing Alfven waves due to phase mixing at the presence of steady flow and sheared magnetic field in solar spicules. Moreover, the transition region between chromosphere and corona was considered. Our numerical simulation showed that the phase mixing and dissipation rate of Alfven waves are enhanced relative to viscosity and resistivity gradients. Comparison of the results of our models with and without these gradients illustrated a significant difference between them. In other words, with these assumptions, Alfven waves may transfer the photospheric energy to the corona during timescales corresponding to the observed lifetimes of spicules.
