We find that the CC method is a powerful tool to examine the WMAP foreground residuals which can be further cleaned accord- ingly. Evident foreground signals are found in the WMAP foreground cleaned maps and the Tegmark cleaned map. In this process 101 point sources are detected, and 26 of them are new sources additional to the originally listed WMAP 208 sources. We estimate the flux of these new sources and verify them by another method. As a result, a revised mask file based on the WMAP first year data is produced by including these new sources.展开更多

Based on the minimum mean square error estimation theory, the nonlinear optimal predictive and correction recursive formulas under the hypothesis that the input noise is correlated with the measurement noise are derived and can be described in a unified framework. Then, UKF and DDF with correlated noises are proposed on the basis of approximation of the posterior mean and covariance in the unified framework by using unscented transformation and second order Stirling＇s interpolation. The proposed UKF and DDF with correlated noises break through the limitation that input noise and measurement noise must be assumed to be uneorrelated in standard UKF and DDF. Two simulation examples show the effectiveness and feasibility of new algorithms for dealing with nonlinear filtering issue with correlated noises.展开更多

It has been...The importance of accurate determination of the critical properties of plus fractions in prediction of phase behaviour of hydrocarbon mixtures by equations of state is well known in the petroleum industry. It has been stated in various papers （Elsharkawy, 2001） that using the plus fraction as a single group in equation of state calculations reduces the accuracy of the results. However in this work it has been shown that using the proper values of critical temperature and pressure for the plus fraction group can estimate the properties of hydrocarbon mixtures, and they are accurate enough to be used in reservoir engineering and enhanced oil recovery calculations. In this paper, a new method is proposed for calculating the critical properties of plus fractions of petroleum fluids. One can use this method either in predicting critical pressure and temperature of single carbon numbers （SCNs） after the splitting process or in predicting critical pressure and temperature of the plus fraction as a single group. A comparison study is performed against Riazi-Daubert correlation （Riazi and Daubert, 1987） and Sancet correlations （Sancet, 2007） for 25 oil samples taken from 14 fields from southwest Iran. The results indicate the superiority of the proposed method to the Riazi-Daubert and Sancet correlations.展开更多

We investigate the Mott transition in a Hubbard model by using the dynamical mean-field theory and introduce the local quantum state fidelity to depict the Mott metal–insulator transition. The local quantum state fidelity provides a convenient approach to determining the critical point of the Mott transition. Additionally, it presents a consistent description of the two distinct forms of the Mott transition points.展开更多

In case of quantum correlations between quantum entities, spin supercurrent emerges between virtual particles pairs (virtual photons) created by those quantum entities. The explanation of magnetic vector potential and near-field antenna effect is based on contemporary principle of quantum mechanics: the physical vacuum is not an empty space but the ground state of the field consisting of quantum harmonic oscillators (QHOs) characterized by zero-point energy. Using the properties of the oscillators and spin supercurrent, it is proved that magnetic vector potential is proportional to the moment causing the orientation of spin of QHO along the direction of magnetic field. The near-field antenna effect is supposed to take place as a result of action of spin supercurrent causing secondary electromagnetic oscillations. In this way, the electromagnetic field may spread at the speed of spin supercurrent. As spin supercurrent is an inertia free process, its speed may be greater than that of light, which does not contradict postulates of special relativity that sets limits to the speed of inertial systems only.展开更多

No such growth was found for a magnitude 7 earthquake in the same area. This result suggests the occurrence of a physical process of critical-point characteristics in the source area before the great earthquakes.展开更多

Neglecting C_(n^(2)p) results in an overestimated relative neutron density fluctuation extraction. In contrast, including C_(n^(2)p) enhances the agreement with experimental results with higher yield ratios but does not change the energy dependence of the yield ratio. Since the AMPT model does exhibit a first-order phase transition or critical physics, the study fails to reproduce the experimental energy-dependent peak around sNN1/2=20-30 GeV. The study'us findings might offer a baseline for investigating critical physics phenomena using light nuclei production as a probe.展开更多

In this paper, we review the experimental measurements of the cumulants(up to fourth order) of event-byevent net-proton(proxy for net-baryon), net-charge and netkaon(proxy for net-strangeness) multiplicity distributions Au+Au collisions at sNN^(1/2) 7:7; 11:5; 14:5; 19:6; 27;39; 62:4; 200 Ge V from the first phase of beam energy scan program at the relativistic heavy-ion collider(RHIC). We also summarize the data analysis methods of suppressing the volume fluctuations, auto-correlations, and the unified description of efficiency correction and error estimation.Based on theoretical and model calculations, we will discuss the characteristic signatures of critical point as well as backgrounds for the fluctuation observables in heavy-ion collisions. The physics implications and the future secondphase of the beam energy scan(2019–2020) at RHIC will also be discussed.展开更多

A pair of given corresponding reference points within the left and right images is used to calculate gradients of reference difference between the reference points and each feature point within the multi-peaks set. The unique correspondence is determined by criterion of minimal gradients of reference difference. The obtained correspondence is taken as a new pair of reference points to update the reference points continuously until all feature points in the left (or right) image being matched with the right (or left) image. The gradients of reference difference can be calculated easily by means of pre-setting a pair of obvious feature points in the left and right images as a pair of corresponding reference points. Besides, the efficiency of matching can be improved greatly by taking the obtained matching point as a new pair of reference points, and by updating the reference point continuously. It is proved that the proposed algorithm is valid and reliable by 3D reconstruction on two pairs of actual natural images with abundant and weak texture, respectively.展开更多

Firstly, the SPRT is developed aiming at the heuristic segments formed by correlation analysis. In order to avoid missing detection the threshold is chosen much lower. Secondly, by adding samples and choosing the one most similar to the heuristic segment to make state estimation FSS is implemented. This time we choose a higher threshold. Moreover in preprocessing the compound kernel estimation is designed to depress varying background clutter. Multiple experimental sequences validate that the method is more suitable for the dim targets detection and tracking compared with the scheme choosing the higher intensity pixel in tracking. It not only has perfect detection performance but also can greatly enhance tracking performance.展开更多

We review studies on this topic, which have attracted attention in recent years, highlighting improvements, expansions, and promising future directions for two-point statistics of CS in turbulent flow. The CS is one of typical structures of turbulent flow, transporting energy from large-scale to small-scale structures. To investigate the CS in turbulent flow, a large amount of two-point correlation techniques for CS identification and visualization have been, and are currently being, intensively studied by researchers. Two-point correlations with examples and comparisons between different methods are briefly reviewed at first. Some of the uses of correlations in both Eulerian and Lagrangian frames of reference to obtain their properties at consecutive spatial locations and time events are surveyed. Two-point correlations, involving space-time correlations, two-point spatial correlations, and cross correlations, as essential to theories and models of turbulence and for the analyses of experimental and numerical turbulence data are then discussed. The velocity-vorticity correlation structure (VVCS) as one of the statistical CS based on two-point correlations is reiterated in detail. Finally, we summarize the current understanding of two-point correlations of turbulence and conclude with future issues for this field.展开更多
