Narrow Results

We calculate the ground state properties of recently synthesized superheavy elements (SHEs) from Z = 105–118 along with the predicted proton magic Z = 120. The relativistic and nonrelativistic mean field formalisms are used to evaluate the binding energy (BE), charge radius, quadrupole deformation parameter and the density distribution of nucleons. We analyzed the stability of the nuclei based on BE and neutron to proton ratio. We also studied the bubble structure which reveals the special features of the superheavy nuclei.

Wireless Sensor Network is a wireless network that consists of independent sensors which communicate with each other in distributed fashion to sense and monitor the environment. The goal of Wireless sensor network is to have long life time and high reliability with maximum coverage. LEACH is one of the first and the most discussed hierarchical, cluster-based routing approaches for sensor networks. In WSNs, the LEACH protocol has got high attention due to its simplicity, energy-efficiency and load-balancing nature.

In this paper we have proposed an improvement over LEACH protocol for the Wireless Sensor Networks by putting a check on how the cluster-heads are chosen. For this, the clusters are sub-divided into groups. Choosing the location of cluster heads properly, can greatly improve the life-time of the network. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed modification achieve our claim.
