Poor water quality and its significant adverse impact on the environment in the Addington Brook catchment has long been realised in Christchurch, New Zealand. Contaminants generated from impermeable surfaces such as roadways, rooftops and parking lots produce high rate of dissolved zinc and copper in this catchment. Hence, this research provides a...

This article analyses the provisions regarding the definition of a PE and its taxation in Nepal under the domestic tax law as well as tax treaties. It also indicates which of Nepal’s treaties vary from the standard articles 5 and 7 of the UN and OECD Models and throws light on the need to update the ITA 2002 as well as Nepalese tax treaties in line...

The five partner states of the East African Community had the ambition to form a common market, a monetary union and even a political federation within a limited number of years, but they may have underestimated the consequences of forming a common market for VAT purposes. In this article, the author describes the VAT rules of the partner states ap...

High-density direct currents are used to drive flux quanta via the Lorentz force toward a highly ordered 'free flux flow' (FFF) dynamic state, made possible by the weak-pinning environment of high-quality, single-crystal samples of two low-T{sub c} superconducting compounds, V{sub 3}Si and LuNi{sub 2}B{sub 2}C. We report the effect of the magnetic...

High density direct currents (DC) are used to drive flux quanta via the Lorentz force towards a highly ordered "free flux flow" (FFF) dynamic state, made possible by the weak-pinning environment of high-quality, single-crystal samples of two low-Tc superconducting compounds, V3Si and LuNi2B2C. We report the effect of the magnetic field-dependent fl...

High, DC current densities are used to drive flux quanta via the Lorentz force, towards a highly ordered "free flux flow" (FFF) dynamic state in the weak-pinning environment provided by high- quality samples of two low-Tc superconducting compounds V3Si and LuNi2B B 2C, for the purpose of investigating the effect on flux flow resistivity ρf of the f...

There is incomplete understanding about the dissipative motion of magnetic flux quanta in type II superconductors, especially under large Lorentz forces. This is mainly due to the technical challenges involving the application of large electric currents and the rarity of samples wherein flux quanta are relatively free to move -- i.e., samples with...
