The Late Permian in eastern Yunnan is an important energy base in Yunnan Province. The rich mineral resources above Mount Emei basalt at the bottom of Longtan Formation at the bottom of coal measures strata are rich in rare minerals, mainly including niobium, tantalum, zirconium, hafnium and rare earth elements, with huge reserves. In this paper, by comparing and analyzing the test data of core samples from boreholes with the test and analysis data of surface trench samples, a targeted study is made on the strata rich in rare metals in this area. The research shows that the enrichment of rare metals originates from volcanic eruptions, mainly from the deposition and accumulation of pozzolanic substances and the weathering crust of Mount Emei basalt, and has undergone diagenesis such as differentiation, recrystallization, clayism, secondary changes and multiple hydrothermal processes. The deposit belongs to volcanic ash-hydrothermal mixed type. The rock strata rich in rare metal elements are located in the first member of Longtan Formation and are evenly dispersed and hosted in the rocks. Based on the study of the mineralization characteristics of rare metals in this area, the genesis of the ore deposit is summarized, which is of great significance to the future geological prospecting.展开更多

In this work, by coupling WO_(3-x) dotsencapsulated metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) as co-reactants and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase(Td T)-mediated template-free branched polymerization, a dual signal-amplified electrochemiluminescent(ECL) biosensor was constructed to detect DNA adenine methylation(Dam) MTase. The employment of WO_(3-x) dots-encapsulated MOFs(i.e., NH_(2)-UIO66@WO_(3-x) ) was not only beneficial for biomolecule conjugation because of the abundant amino groups but also led to a 7-fold enhanced ECL response due to the increased loading of WO_(3-x). Moreover, Td T-mediated template-free branched polymerization promoted the capture of ECL emitters on the electrode surface, achieving 20-fold enhanced signal amplification. The presented ECL biosensor demonstrated a low detection limit of 2.4 × 10^(-4)U/m L, and displayed high reliability for the detection of Dam MTase in both spiked human serum and E. coli cell samples, and for the screening of potential inhibitors. This study opens a new avenue for designing a dual signal amplificationbased ECL bioassay for Dam MTase and screening inhibitors in the fields of clinical diagnosis and drug development.展开更多

After splitting green valley galaxies into two parts—a bluer green valley(green 1) and a redder one(green 2) and three stellar mass bins,we investigate the variation of physical properties across the green valley region. Our main results are as follows:(i) The percentages of pure bulge and bulge-dominated/elliptical galaxies increase gradually from blue cloud to red sequence while the percentages of pure disk and disk-dominated/spiral galaxies decrease gradually in all stellar mass bins and different environments.(ii) With the analysis of morphological and structural parameters(e.g., concentration(C) and the stellar mass surface density within the central 1 kpc(Σ1)), red galaxies show more luminous and compact cores than both green valley and blue galaxies, while blue galaxies show the opposite behavior in all stellar mass bins.(iii) A strong negative(positive) relationship between bulge-to-total light ratio(B/T) and specific star formation rate(sSFR)(D_(4000)) is found from blue to red galaxies. Our results indicate that the growth in bulge plays an important role when the galaxies change from the blue cloud, to the green valley and to the red sequence.展开更多

We find that the jet power of γ-NLS1 s is lower than the maximum jet power of the Blandford–Payne(BP) mechanism. At the same time, we find that there is a significant correlation between jet power and accretion disk luminosity. Moreover, the contribution rates of the accretion to the jet power are larger than that of black hole mass to jet power. These results further suggest that the jet of γ NLS1 s is mainly produced by the BP mechanism.展开更多

We find significant anti-correlations between variability amplitude and absolute magnitude in g, r, i, z and y bands, which are consistent with the results in previous works.(2) The correlations between the variability amplitude in optical band and many physical parameters(e.g., λL(5100 A),black hole mass, Eddington ratio, R;and R;) are investigated. The results show the variability amplitude is significantly anti-correlated with L(5100 A), MBH, Eddington ratio and R_(4570), but positively correlated with R;.The relation could be explained by the simple standard accretion disk model.(3) We further investigate the relationship between optical variability and radio luminosity/radio-loudness. The results present weak positive correlation in g and r bands, but insignificant correlation in i, z and y bands. The large error of the approximate fraction of the host galaxy in i, z and y bands may lead to insignificant correlations.展开更多
