The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.展开更多

The relation between the Floquet multipliers and the magnitudes of Halo orbit is established, so that the suitable magnitude for the aerospace mission is chosen in terms of the stability of Halo orbit. The stable manifold is investigated from the Poincar6 mapping defined which is different from the previous researches, and six types of single-impulse transfer trajectories are attained from the geometry of the invariant manifolds. Based on one of the trajectories of indirect transfer which are ignored in the most of literatures, the stochastic control theory for imperfect information of the discrete linear stochastic system is applied to design the trajectory correction maneuver. The statistical dispersion analysis is performed by Monte-Carlo simulation,展开更多

文摘Unraveling the essence of electronic structure effected by d-d orbital coupling of transition metal and methanol oxidation reaction(MOR)performance can fundamentally guide high efficient catalyst design.Herein,density functional theory(DFT)calculations were performed at first to study the d–d orbital interaction of metallic Pt Pd Cu,revealing that the incorporation of Pd and Cu atoms into Pt system can enhance d-d electron interaction via capturing antibonding orbital electrons of Pt to fill the surrounding Pd and Cu atoms.Under the theoretical guidance,Pt Pd Cu medium entropy alloy aerogels(Pt Pd Cu MEAAs)catalysts have been designed and systematically screened for MOR under acid,alkaline and neutral electrolyte.Furthermore,DFT calculation and in-situ fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis indicate that Pt Pd Cu MEAAs follow the direct pathway via formate as the reactive intermediate to be directly oxidized to CO_(2).For practical direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs),the Pt Pd Cu MEAAs-integrated ultra-thin catalyst layer(4–5μm thickness)as anode exhibits higher peak power density of 35 m W/cm^(2) than commercial Pt/C of 20 m W/cm^(2)(~40μm thickness)under the similar noble metal loading and an impressive stability retention at a 50-m A/cm^(2) constant current for 10 h.This work clearly proves that optimizing the intermediate adsorption capacity via d-d orbital coupling is an effective strategy to design highly efficient catalysts for DMFCs.
文摘By introducing noncanonical vortex pairs to partially coherent beams, spatial correlation singularity (SCS) and orbital angular momenta (OAM) of the resulting beams are studied using the Fraunhofer diffraction integral. The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.

文摘This article addresses the design of the trajectory transferring from Earth to Halo orbit, and proposes a timing closed-loop strategy of correction maneuver during the transfer in the frame of circular restricted three body problem （CR3BP）. The relation between the Floquet multipliers and the magnitudes of Halo orbit is established, so that the suitable magnitude for the aerospace mission is chosen in terms of the stability of Halo orbit. The stable manifold is investigated from the Poincar6 mapping defined which is different from the previous researches, and six types of single-impulse transfer trajectories are attained from the geometry of the invariant manifolds. Based on one of the trajectories of indirect transfer which are ignored in the most of literatures, the stochastic control theory for imperfect information of the discrete linear stochastic system is applied to design the trajectory correction maneuver. The statistical dispersion analysis is performed by Monte-Carlo simulation,

文摘AIM:To describe the clinical manifestations,imaging features and surgical treatments in 5 cases of extraocular muscle(EOM)dysplasia presenting as orbital spaceoccupying lesions(SOL).METHODS:Records from the 5 cases with EOM dysplasia between 2004 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed and clinical data were recorded including family history,age at onset,age at surgery,visual acuity,cycloplegic refraction,ocular alignment and motility,stereoacuity,exophthalmos,anterior segment and fundus,orbital computed tomography(CT)or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)scan,surgical methods and final outcomes.RESULTS:All 5 cases(1 male,4 females)were unilateral(3 right,2 left eyes).The average age was 5.4y(range 4-6y)with no family history.Patients had unilateral strabismus(horizontal and vertical),restricted eye movement,and eyelid changes(abnormal fissures,lagophthalmos,and/or entropion)in the affected eye.None had proptosis;1 had 2-mm enophthalmos.Orbital CT/MRI showed irregular,ill-defined masses in EOM.Two anterior orbitotomies and 3 strabismus surgeries were performed,and pathology confirmed EOM dysplasia.After surgery,horizontal deviations,which ranged from exotropia(XT)10 prism diopter(PD)to esotropia(ET)10 PD(average 6 PD),decreased by an average of 18 PD,while vertical deviations,which ranged from 4 PD to 20 PD(mean 9.8 PD),decreased by an average of 23.2 PD.CONCLUSION:SOL from EOM dysplasia is non-familial and typically presenting unilaterally characterized by an irregular,diffusely infiltrating mass within the EOM.EOM involvement causes strabismus,restricted eye movement,eyelid changes,and enophthalmos likely due to cicatricial processes.

文摘The hybridization between oxygen 2p and transition-metal 3d states largely determines the electronic structure near the Fermi level and related functionalities of transition-metal oxides(TMOs).Considerable efforts have been made to manipulate the p-d hybridization in TMOs by tailoring the spatial orbital overlap via structural engineering.Here,we demonstrate enhanced p-d hybridization in Ba^(2+)-doped LaNiO_(3)epitaxial films by simultaneously modifying both the spatial and energetic overlaps between the O-2p and Ni-3d orbitals.Combining x-ray absorption spectroscopy and firstprinciples calculations,we reveal that the enhanced hybridization stems from the synergistic effects of a reduced chargetransfer energy due to hole injection and an increased spatial orbital overlap due to straightening of Ni-O-Ni bonds.We further show that the enhanced p-d hybridization can be utilized to promote the oxygen evolution activity of LaNiO_(3).This work sheds new insights into the fine-tuning of the electronic structures of TMOs for enhanced functionalities.

文摘The factors controlling dust activity and humidity in Central Asia and their relationships remain controversial,partly due to a lack of high-resolution geological records for the mid-to-late last glaciation.In this study,we established an optically stimulated luminescence chronology for the QSHA profile in the Yili Basin,a region influenced by westerlies.Grain size and trace element data were used as paleoclimatic indicators.We investigated the relationships among Central Asian dust activity,humidity,and westerlies strength on orbital to millennial scale from 37.4 ka to 11.6 ka.Our study reveals that,on orbital timescales,humidity is positively correlated with westerlies strength which controlled by precession.Dust activity is controlled by Siberian High which was regulated by Northern Hemisphere high-latitude temperature.Their responses to low-latitude and high-latitude forcing mechanisms respectively and present an opposite relationship.On millennial timescales,humidity and westerlies strength are positively correlated.During Marine Isotope Stage(MIS)2,humidity and dust activity show synchronous fluctuations,while during MIS 3,they exhibit an inverse relationship.Westerlies strength regulated humidity,which subsequently controlled glacial activity in the Tianshan Mountains,influencing dust activity in Central Asia.Additionally,the QSHA profile recorded seven Dansgaard-Oeschger(D-O)events on millennial timescales,indicating a potential link between Central Asian dust activity and high-latitude temperature variations in the Northern Hemisphere.Our findings provide new insights into dust and humidity interaction during the last glaciation periods in Central Asia and contribute to understanding global dust and hydrological cycles.

文摘Orbital disorders include conditions originating from the orbital bones,surrounding tissues,and post-orbital septum.They also include systemic ailments affecting the orbit.Different clinical symptoms make up the complex range of orbital disorders.Because these disorders mostly impact the orbital area instead of the intraocular compartment,there is little diagnostic usefulness for typical ophthalmic visual tests.As such,the vital instruments for diagnosing and evaluating orbital illnesses have become ophthalmic imaging modalities,including ocular ultrasonography(B-scan),computed tomography(CT),and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).One way to improve the precision and promptness of diagnosing orbital diseases is to standardize the functioning of widely used imaging equipment and define the radiological features of orbital abnormalities.Such programs are crucial for the care of patients with orbital disorders since they considerably reduce the number of misdiagnoses and missed diagnoses in these individuals.The underlying concepts,operational techniques,and normal and pathological imaging findings associated with common diagnostic tools for orbital illnesses are all thoroughly reviewed in this guideline.The objective is to improve primary healthcare settings’diagnostic competence in the field of orbital pathology and to standardize procedures for diagnosing orbital disorders.
文摘This study aimed to investigate the impact of administration routes in establishing the Adriamycin(ADR)-induced chronic kidney disease(CKD)model.Using BALB/c mice,we compared the effects of conventional tail-vein injection(TV10,10 mg/kg)to those of retro-orbital sinus(orbital vein)injection(OV10,10 mg/kg;OV8,8 mg/kg).The re-sults indicated that the OV10 group exhibited CKD pathology similar to the TV10 group,with both groups demonstrating significantly higher urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(p<0.05),tubular injury(p<0.05),and degree of renal fibrosis(p<0.05)than the OV8 group.No significant differences were observed between the OV10 and TV10 groups in urinary albumin/creatinine ratio,tubular injury,and degree of renal fibrosis.These findings demonstrated that retro-orbital administration of 10 mg/kg ADR in-duces comparable effects to conventional tail-vein administration.This technique's technical simplicity may improve experimental efficiency,reproducibility,and animal welfare in CKD research.In conclusion,this study validates the utility of retro-orbital injection in CKD model establishment,demonstrating its potential to standardize and improve the reliability of future CKD research protocols.

文摘This paper proposes a novel impulsive thrust strategy guided by optimal continuous thrust strategy to address two-player orbital pursuit-evasion game under impulsive thrust control.The strategy seeks to enhance the interpretability of impulsive thrust strategy by integrating it within the framework of differential game in traditional continuous systems.First,this paper introduces an impulse-like constraint,with periodical changes in thrust amplitude,to characterize the impulsive thrust control.Then,the game with the impulse-like constraint is converted into the two-point boundary value problem,which is solved by the combined shooting and deep learning method proposed in this paper.Deep learning and numerical optimization are employed to obtain the guesses for unknown terminal adjoint variables and the game terminal time.Subsequently,the accurate values are solved by the shooting method to yield the optimal continuous thrust strategy with the impulse-like constraint.Finally,the shooting method is iteratively employed at each impulse decision moment to derive the impulsive thrust strategy guided by the optimal continuous thrust strategy.Numerical examples demonstrate the convergence of the combined shooting and deep learning method,even if the strongly nonlinear impulse-like constraint is introduced.The effect of the impulsive thrust strategy guided by the optimal continuous thrust strategy is also discussed.
