(University of Nairobi, 1992)
This article reports a preliminary examination of plant remains and the tentative implications that have so far been deduced from them. The plant samples were acquired by archaeological excavations at one of the Hyrax ...
Wave propagation in quasi-one-dimensional quantum plasma in a magnetic field
(Univesity of Nairobi, 1988)
A cold electron gas fills the lowest Landau level for high enough magnetic fields and for low enough densities. Such a situation is expected to occur for the Malmberg-O'Neil experiment and also for pulsar crusts and ...

(University of Nairobi, 1993)
Despite abundant literature on the social and economic benefits of encouraging tiny "informal" firms, scholars generally agree that larger enterprises create more unskilled jobs, use resources ...
High-frequency sum rules for the quasi-one-dimensional quantum plasma dielectric tensor. II. Spin effect
(Univesity of Nairobi, 1993-04)
We derive a high-frequency expansion for all elements of the quasi-one-dimensional quantum plasma dielectric tensor atT=0 K for quantum particles with spins. In addition to the known results for spinless case, we find that ...
