Method: Using the convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 292 nursing students from a medical college in Jiangxi Province, using the Peer Caring Behavior Scale and the Jefferson Scale of Empathy. Results: The score for peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students was 85.00 (78.00-92.00), and the score for empathy was 101.00 (92.00-110.00). A positive correlation was found between the two (r = 0.362, p < 0.05). Conclusion: The level of peer caring behavior among undergraduate nursing students is above average, while their empathy level is moderate, with a positive correlation between the two. This suggests that nursing educators should strengthen the development of peer caring behavior, which may help enhance the empathy of undergraduate nursing students.展开更多

Through extensive numerical simulations, we find that long-range temporally correlated noise does not significantly impact the distribution form of the interface width. Generally,W^(2)(L, t) approximately obeys a lognormal distribution when the temporal correlation exponentθ ≥0. On the other hand, the effects of long-range spatially correlated noise are evidently different from the temporally correlated case. Our results show that, when the spatial correlation exponent ρ ≤ 0.20, the distribution forms of W^(2)(L, t) approach the lognormal distribution, and when ρ > 0.20, the distribution becomes more asymmetric, steep, and fat-tailed, and tends to an unknown distribution form. As a comparison, probability distributions of the interface height are also provided in the temporally and spatially correlated KPZ system, exhibiting quite different characteristics from each other within the whole correlated strengths. For the temporal correlation, the height distributions follow Tracy-Widom Gaussian orthogonal ensemble(TW-GOE) when θ → 0, and with increasing θ, the height distributions crossover continuously to an unknown distribution. However, for the spatial correlation, the height distributions gradually transition from the TW-GOE distribution to the standard Gaussian form.展开更多

文摘We investigate numerically the effects of long-range temporal and spatial correlations based on the rescaled distributions of the squared interface width W^(2)(L, t) and the interface height h(x, t)in the(1+1)-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang(KPZ) growth system within the early growth regime. Through extensive numerical simulations, we find that long-range temporally correlated noise does not significantly impact the distribution form of the interface width. Generally,W^(2)(L, t) approximately obeys a lognormal distribution when the temporal correlation exponentθ ≥0. On the other hand, the effects of long-range spatially correlated noise are evidently different from the temporally correlated case. Our results show that, when the spatial correlation exponent ρ ≤ 0.20, the distribution forms of W^(2)(L, t) approach the lognormal distribution, and when ρ > 0.20, the distribution becomes more asymmetric, steep, and fat-tailed, and tends to an unknown distribution form.

For the temporal correlation, the height distributions follow Tracy-Widom Gaussian orthogonal ensemble(TW-GOE) when θ → 0, and with increasing θ, the height distributions crossover continuously to an unknown distribution. However, for the spatial correlation, the height distributions gradually transition from the TW-GOE distribution to the standard Gaussian form.

文摘Programmable two-particle quantum walks are crucial for advancing quantum simulation,computation,and information processing.Although disorder is traditionally associated with information loss,it can also facilitate emergent phenomena such as enhanced energy transport.Here,we experimentally realize a 12-step discrete-time quantum walk in programmable integrated photonic circuits,introducing tunable static and dynamic disorder to explore quantum transport dynamics.In periodic lattices,disorder induces light localization and drives a transition from quantum ballistic to classical diffusive behavior.In particular,quantum walks of correlated photons exhibit a disorder-induced bunching effect,accompanied by enhanced nonclassical correlations.Our platform provides a scalable framework for investigating multiparticle quantum dynamics in engineered environments,promoting the development of quantum optics toward large-scale applications.

文摘In multi-orbital systems,the correlation strength is typically attributed to Coulomb interactions and Hund's couplings.However,this study demonstrates that on-site inter-orbital hybridization can also significant influence the correlation strength of the system.We investigate the impact of on-site inter-orbital hybridization on the correlation strength of a two-orbital Hubbard model on a square lattice using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with Lanczos exact diagonalization.Our findings reveal a distinct Janus effect:on-site inter-orbital hybridization enhances correlation strength in the non-half-filled regime while suppresses it at half-filling.This dual role of on-site inter-orbital hybridization provides a fundamental mechanism for tuning the strength of correlations in multi-orbital systems.

文摘The energy correlations of prompt fission neutrons have not yet been considered in the related coincidence and multiplication measurement techniques.To measure and verify the energy correlations,an experiment was performed with a total measurement duration of approximately 1200 h.In the experiment,eight CLYC detectors and sixteen EJ309 liquid scintillation detectors were utilized,and the fission moment was tagged with the measured fissionγ-rays.The relative ratios of the energy spectra of the neutrons correlated with different energy neutrons to the^(252)Cf fission neutron energy spectra were obtained.The present results may be helpful for studying fission physics and nuclear technology applications.

文摘When two layers of graphene are stacked with a twist angle of approximately 1.1°,strong interlayer coupling gives rise to a pair of flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene(TBG),resulting in pronounced electron–electron interactions.At half filling of the flat bands,TBG exhibits correlated insulating states.Here,we investigate the electrical transport properties of heterostructures composed of TBG and the antiferromagnetic insulator chromium oxychloride(CrOCl),and propose a strategy to modulate the correlated insulating states in TBG.During the transition from a conventional phase to a strong interfacial coupling phase,kink-like features are observed in the charge neutrality point(CNP),correlated insulating state,and band insulating state.Under a perpendicular magnetic field,the system exhibits broadened quantum Hall plateaus in the strong interfacial coupling regime.Electrons localized in the CrOCl layer screen the bottom gate,rendering the carrier density in TBG less sensitive to variations in the bottom gate voltage.These phenomena are well captured by a charge-transfer model between TBG and CrOCl.Our results provide insights into the control of electronic correlations and topological states in graphene moirésystems via interfacial charge coupling.

文摘A dynamic graph(DG)is adopted to portray the evolving interplay between nodes in real-world scenarios prevalently.A high-order graph convolutional network(HGCN)is equipped with the ability to represent a DG by the spatial-temporal message passing mechanism built on tensor product.Concretely,an HGCN utilizes the discrete Fourier transform(DFT)to implement temporal message passing and then employs face-wise product to realize spatial message passing.However,DFT is only a special case of assorted time-frequency transforms,which considers the complex temporal patterns partially,thereby resulting in an inaccurate temporal message passing possibly.To address this issue,this study proposes six advanced time-frequency transform-incorporated HGCNs(TF-HGCNs)with discrete Fourier,discrete Hartley,discrete cosine,Haar wavelet,Walsh Hadamard,and slant transforms.In addition,a potent ensemble is built regarding the proposed six TF-HGCNs as the bases.Finally,the corresponding theoretical proof is presented.Empirical studies on six DG datasets demonstrate that owing to diverse time-frequency transforms,the proposed six TF-HGCNs significantly outperform state-of-the-art models in addressing the task of link weight estimation.Moreover,their ensemble outstrips each base's performance.

文摘The octupole correlations of the K^(π)=5/2^(+)ground state and the rotational spectrum built on it in^(229)Th are studied using the microscopic relativistic density functional theory on a three-dimensional lattice space and the reflection-asymmetric triaxial particle rotor model.It is found that^(229)Th has a ground state with static axial octupole and quadrupole deformations.The occurrence of octupole correlations,driven by the octupole deformation,is analyzed through the evolution of single-particle levels around the Fermi surface.The experimental energy spectrum and the electromagnetic transition probabilities,including B(E2)and B(M1),are reasonably well reproduced.

文摘An important feature of quantum chromodynamics(QCD)is that the strong force grows as the distance between partons increases,which confines partons into hadrons,commonly known as QCD confinement.Perturbative QCD(pQCD)does not work at large distance,such as the length scale of a hadron,which is the regime of non-perturbative QCD.The detailed QCD mechanisms through which confinement occurs from partons to hadrons(usually known as hadronization),and how it manifests itself in partonic structure of hadrons(usually known as parton distribution),remain unresolved puzzles of first-principle QCD calculations.

文摘Ironmaking process(IP)is indispensable to modern iron and steel industry,where real-time monitoring is crucial for achieving high molten iron quality(MIQ)with low energy consumption.While neural network-based models show some promising results,they are generally limited by non-negligible drawbacks such as interpretability issues of feature learning.To address these issues,we propose a novel concept based on the shallow-to-deep correlation network representation regression(Sh-to-De CNRR).Our approach,shallow correlation network representation regression(ShCNRR),combines neural network and canonical correlation analysis thoughts to generate explainable features via shallow correlation network representation(CNR).A twin inverse network is then derived to obtain the explicit model output,leveraging the shallow CNR.To capture deeper nonlinear information,we extend ShCNRR into a hierarchical deep correlation network representation regression(DeCNRR)model that features stacked neural networks,enabling us to learn deeper CNR from process data.The feasibility and advantages of our proposals are validated by theoretical derivations and practical IP cases,which contain one MIQ regression and three MIQ-related fault detection tasks.The results reveal that highly fused statistical and neural network models yield superior monitoring performance compared to current state-of-the-art models,while statistical tests verify the convincing feature mining.

文摘Understanding the properties of warm dense hydrogen is of key importance for the modeling of compact astrophysical objects and to understand and further optimize inertial confinement fusion applications.The workhorse of warm dense matter theory is thermal density functional theory(DFT),which,however,suffers from two limitations:(i)its accuracy can depend on the utilized exchange-correlation functional,which has to be approximated,and(ii)it is generally limited to single-electron properties such as the density distribution.Here,we present a new ansatz combining time-dependent DFT results for the dynamic structure factor S_(ee)(q,ω)with static DFT results for the density response.This allows us to estimate the electron-electron static structure factor S_(ee)(q)of warm dense hydrogen with high accuracy over a broad range of densities and temperatures.In addition to its value for the study of warm dense matter,our work opens up new avenues for the future study of electronic correlations exclusively within the framework of DFT for a host of applications.

文摘In studying interactions between intense laser fields and atoms or molecules,the role of electron correlation effects on the dynamical response is an important and pressing issue to address.Utilizing Bohmian mechanics(BM),we have theoretically explored the two-electron correlation characteristics while generating high-order harmonics in xenon atoms subjected to intense laser fields.We initially employed Bohmian trajectories to reproduce the dynamics of the electrons and subsequently utilized time-frequency analysis spectra to ascertain the emission time windows for high-order harmonics.Within these time windows,we classified the nuclear region Bohmian trajectories and observed that intense high-order harmonics are solely generated when paired Bohmian particles(BPs)concurrently appear in the nuclear region and reside there for a duration within a re-collision time window.Furthermore,our analysis of characteristic trajectories producing high-order harmonics led us to propose a two-electron re-collision model to elucidate this phenomenon.The study demonstrates that intense high-order harmonics are only generated when both electrons are in the ground state within the re-collision time window.This work discusses the implications of correlation effects between two electrons and offers valuable insights for studying correlation in multi-electron high-order harmonic generation.
