PROPERTIES OF A MIXTURE OF BOSONS AND FERMIONS AT ZERO KELVIN TEMPERATURE
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Quantum materials reveal unexpected and exotic behavour when subjected to extreme
conditions such as low temperature and/or high pressure. Ultra cold gases provide a
very powerful tool for simulation and study of ...
A DESIGN OF A LOW-REYNOLDS NUMBER AIRFOIL THAT LEADS TO THE FORMATION OF SEPARATION BUBBLES AT THE LEADING EDGE
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
The aerodynamics of airfoils at low Reynolds numbers (Re) has become increasingly important from both fundamental and industrial points of view, due to recent developments in small wind turbines, small unmanned aerial ...
EFFICACY OF NEW PYRETHRUM SYNERGISTS FROM OCIMUM KILIMANDSCHARICUM GUERKE AND TAGETES MINUTA L. AGAINST MALARIA VECTOR THE ANOPHELES GAMBIAE
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Mosquitoes are vectors that carry disease-causing viruses and parasites from person to
person. Some of these diseases such as dengue, malaria, rift valley fever, yellow fever
among others can be life threatening. Vector ...
TAXONOMY AND NUTRIENT COMPOSITION OF SPECIES IN THE Vernonia hymenolepis A. RICH. COMPLEX IN TROPICAL EAST AFRICA
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Three Stengelioid species forming a complex in the genus Vernonia Schreber. in Tropical
East Africa viz., Vernonia calvoana (Hook.f.) Hook.f., Vernonia hymenolepis A. Rich.
and Vernonia tolypophora Mattf. were investigated ...
AN INVESTIGATION ON MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS FLUID FLOW BETWEEN TWO PARALLEL INFINITE PLATES SUBJECTED TO AN INCLINED MAGNETIC FIELD AND VARYING TEMPERATURES
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is the study of electrically conducting fluids in the
presence of magnetic fields. This study examined the motion of a viscous, electrically
conducting and incompressible fluid flowing steadily ...

(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Leishmaniasis, a vector-borne disease caused by obligate intra-macrophage protozoa,
is endemic in large areas of the Tropics, Subtropics and the Mediterranean basin and
350 million people are considered at risk. The ...
INVESTIGATION OF ETHREL GAMETOCIDE IN FINGER MILLET (Eleusine coracana, L. Gaertn) HYBRIDS THROUGH GENETIC ANALYSIS
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Finger millet is a staple food crop of in Africa due to; desirable attributes like being
highly nutritious, good grain storagability and strong cultural value. In Kenya, therefore,
finger millet is on high demand for ...
ROLE OF LONG – RANGE ELECTRON - PHONON AND COULOMB INTERACTIONS IN HIGH - TC CUPRATE SUPERCONDUCTORS
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Superconductivity is the disappearance of the electrical resistance of certain materials at
certain critical temperatures called transition temperatures. This phenomenon was
discovered in 1911 and is one of the most ...
NUCLEON-NUCLEON INTERACTION IN RHENIUM- 186Re.
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Properties of nuclear matter and large finite nuclei have been studied using different types
of nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction potential. In this study, focus is on the thermodynamic
properties of a large nucleus of ...
EFFECT OF GRAIN SIZE, BED DEPTH AND RETENTION TIME IN INTERMITTENT BIOSAND FILTERS FOR IMPROVEMENT OF SECONDARY SEWAGE EFFLUENT QUALITY
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Biosand filtration (BsF) is a simple technique used for pathogen and particle removal
in drinking water purification. It may be adapted for wastewater stabilization but only
a few studies have been done on improvement ...
