The results showed that involvement of parapharyngeal space was very common in NPC, about 80% (160/200 cases) ; particularly unilateral or bilateral retro-styloid spaces, about 69.5% (139/200 cases). It was proposed that patients with NPC had a high Incidence of ipsilateral cervical node metastasis. Contralateral cervical node metastasis was rare. The development of cervical node metastasto in NPC has two modes: one Is direct Infiltration of the retro-stylold space by the lesion; the other Is along the nasopharyngeal lymphatic rete. The data also showed that patients with NPC who presented symptoms of Ⅸ- Ⅲ cranial nerve paralyses always had ipsilateral or bilateral retro- styloid space Infiltrations.展开更多

The chemical formula of the sample is Ce4Fe2Ti3Si4O22. The crystals are monoclinic with the unit cell parameters a = 13.4656(15) ?, b = 5.7356(6) ?, c = 11.0977(12) ?, β= 100.636(2)o, V = 842.39 (16) ?3 and Z = 2. The structures of Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) were refined with space groups P21/a and C2/m. Least-squares refinement results show that both structural models of Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) are very good, R[F2>2σ(F2)] =0.027 with P21/a and R[F2>2σ(F2)] =0.021 with C2/m. In order to illustrate the relationship between the two space groups P21/a and C2/m, the distribution of diffraction intensities was inspected. Pseudo extinction was found, i.e., reflections with h+k=2n are systematically strong, while those with h+k=2n+1 are weak. By neglecting the systematically weak (h+k=2n+1) reflections the space group becomes C2/m. There is a mirror plane in the C2/m perpendicular to the b axis. However, oxygen atoms in the P21/a model are of a symmetrical relationship with the corresponding pseudo mirror plane. It is concluded that the crystal structure of non-metamict Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) is a superstructure with the space group of P21/a, which is of pseudo symmetry corresponding to the space group C2/m.展开更多

The X-ray diffraction of all the three samples showed sharp Bragg peaks indicating the formation of a single phase spinel structure. The lattice parameters of the samples were determined from the X-ray diffraction data using the Nelson-Riley extrapolation method. The lattice parameters, cation distribution and oxygen position parameters have also been determined by refining the data by the Rietveld method. Rietveld refinement of the XRD data reveals all the samples to possess cubic symmetry corresponding to the space group Fd3m. Lattice parameters were found to decrease with increasing Al concentration, i.e. 8.4322, 8.4002, and 8.3984 Åfor x = 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4, respectively.展开更多

This result has been applied extensively to linear partial differential equations (PDEs) with a law of conservation. Hille [2] then discovered the generation theorem of the Hille-Yosida type for a C<sub>0</sub> group on a Banach space. There are also some conditions under which a C<sub>0</sub> semigroup on a Banach space can be embedded in a C<sub>0</sub> group. We refer the readers to ref. [3] for details of the results mentioned above.展开更多

文摘We introduce CrystalFormer,a transformer-based autoregressive model specifically designed for space group-controlled generation of crystalline materials.By explicitly incorporating space group symmetry,CrystalFormer greatly reduces the effective complexity of crystal space,which is essential for data-and compute-efficient generative modeling of crystalline materials.Leveraging the prominent discrete and sequential nature of the Wyckoff positions,CrystalFormer learns to generate crystals by directly predicting the species and coordinates of symmetry-inequivalent atoms in the unit cell.We demonstrate the advantages of CrystalFormer in standard tasks such as symmetric structure initialization and element substitution over widely used conventional approaches.Furthermore,we showcase its plug-and-play application to property-guided materials design,highlighting its flexibility.Our analysis reveals that CrystalFormer ingests sensible solid-state chemistry knowledge and heuristics by compressing the material dataset,thus enabling systematic exploration of crystalline materials space.The simplicity,generality,and adaptability of CrystalFormer position it as a promising architecture to be the foundational model of the entire crystalline materials space,heralding a new era in materials discovery and design.
文摘IN 1932, Stone [1] gave the first result concerning C<sub>0</sub> semigroups generated by an unbounded operator,which says that a linear operator is the infinitesimal generator of a C<sub>0</sub> group of unitary operators on a Hilbert space if and only if it is skew-adjoint. This result has been applied extensively to linear partial differential equations (PDEs) with a law of conservation. Hille [2] then discovered the generation theorem of the Hille-Yosida type for a C<sub>0</sub> group on a Banach space. There are also some conditions under which a C<sub>0</sub> semigroup on a Banach space can be embedded in a C<sub>0</sub> group. We refer the readers to ref. [3] for details of the results mentioned above.
