Here, we perform systematic studies on the elastic properties of the Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wire, which is a promising candidate material for the new-generation pulsed magnets, by employing two independent ultrasonic techniques, i.e., resonant ultrasound spectroscopy(RUS) and ultrasound pulse-echo experiments. Our RUS measurements manifest that the elastic properties of the Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wires can be improved by an electroplastic drawing procedure as compared with the conventional cold drawing. We also take this opportunity to test the availability of our newly-built ultrasound pulse-echo facility at the Wuhan National High Magnetic Field Center(WHMFC, China), and the results suggest that the elastic performance of the electroplastically-drawn Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wire remains excellent without anomalous softening under extreme conditions,e.g., in ultra-high magnetic field up to 50 T and nitrogen or helium cryogenic liquids.展开更多

Here, we perform systematic studies on the elastic properties of the Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wire, which is a promising candidate material for the new-generation pulsed magnets, by employing two independent ultrasonic techniques, i.e., resonant ultrasound spectroscopy(RUS) and ultrasound pulse-echo experiments. Our RUS measurements manifest that the elastic properties of the Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wires can be improved by an electroplastic drawing procedure as compared with the conventional cold drawing. We also take this opportunity to test the availability of our newly-built ultrasound pulse-echo facility at the Wuhan National High Magnetic Field Center(WHMFC, China), and the results suggest that the elastic performance of the electroplastically-drawn Cu–6wt% Ag alloy wire remains excellent without anomalous softening under extreme conditions,e.g., in ultra-high magnetic field up to 50 T and nitrogen or helium cryogenic liquids.

文摘Astronomical site selection work is very hard.Unmanned technologies are important trends and solutions.We present a relatively easy method to plan a high reliability site selection which can extend the time from site deployment to returning for maintaining by unmanned confirming the site.First,we redefine the reliability of a site selection deployment with the parameter of the trusty time,which means when we must return,and which can be relatively easy for estimating.The redefinition makes the reliability parameter as a Bayesian probability,and can be obtained by estimating besides testing,which makes the evaluation of each device's reliability much easier.Then we use block diagram tools in the Matlab Simulink software to construct structure diagram,and to link each component with relations of parallel,serial,protection,and so on.This makes the whole reliability value can be calculated at the time when we design or plan a site selection.We applied this concept and method in an actual site selection in Lenghu,Qinghai Province,China.The survey practice reveals its effectiveness and simpleness.

文摘One of the detection objectives of the Chinese Asteroid Exploration mission is to investigate the space environment near the Main-belt Comet(MBC,Active Asteroid)311P/PANSTARRS.This paper outlines the scientific objectives,measurement targets,and measurement requirements for the proposed Gas and Ion Analyzer(GIA).The GIA is designed for in-situ mass spectrometry of neutral gases and low-energy ions,such as hydrogen,carbon,and oxygen,in the vicinity of 311P.Ion sampling techniques are essential for the GIA's Time-of-Flight(TOF)mass analysis capabilities.In this paper,we present an enhanced ion sampling technique through the development of an ion attraction model and an ion source model.The ion attraction model demonstrates that adjusting attraction grid voltage can enhance the detection efficiency of low-energy ions and mitigate the repulsive force of ions during sampling,which is influenced by the satellite's surface positive charging.The ion source model simulates the processes of gas ionization and ion multiplication.Simulation results indicate that the GIA can achieve a lower pressure limit below 10-13Pa and possess a dynamic range exceeding 10~9.These performances ensure the generation of ions with stable and consistent current,which is crucial for high-resolution and broad dynamic range mass spectrometer analysis.Preliminary testing experiments have verified GIA's capability to detect gas compositions such as H2O and N2.In-situ measurements near 311P using GIA are expected to significantly contribute to our understanding of asteroid activity mechanisms,the evolution of the atmospheric and ionized environments of main-belt comets,the interactions with solar wind,and the origin of Earth's water.

文摘Despite advancements in neuroimaging,false positive diagnoses of intracranial aneurysms remain a significant concern.This article examines the causes,prevalence,and implications of such false-positive diagnoses.We discuss how conditions like arterial occlusion with vascular stump formation and infundibular widening can mimic aneurysms,particularly in the anterior circulation.The article compares various imaging modalities,including computer tomography angiogram,magnetic resonance imaging/angiography,and digital subtraction angiogram,highlighting their strengths and limitations.We emphasize the im-portance of accurate differentiation to avoid unnecessary surgical interventions.The potential of emerging technologies,such as high-resolution vessel wall ima-ging and deep neural networks for automated detection,is explored as promising avenues for improving diagnostic accuracy.This manuscript underscores the need for continued research and clinical vigilance in the diagnosis of intracranial aneurysms.

文摘Low-voltage direct current(DC)microgrids have recently emerged as a promising and viable alternative to traditional alternating cur-rent(AC)microgrids,offering numerous advantages.Consequently,researchers are exploring the potential of DC microgrids across var-ious configurations.However,despite the sustainability and accuracy offered by DC microgrids,they pose various challenges when integrated into modern power distribution systems.Among these challenges,fault diagnosis holds significant importance.Rapid fault detection in DC microgrids is essential to maintain stability and ensure an uninterrupted power supply to critical loads.A primary chal-lenge is the lack of standards and guidelines for the protection and safety of DC microgrids,including fault detection,location,and clear-ing procedures for both grid-connected and islanded modes.In response,this study presents a brief overview of various approaches for protecting DC microgrids.

文摘In the task of classifying massive celestial data,the accurate classification of galaxies,stars,and quasars usually relies on spectral labels.However,spectral data account for only a small fraction of all astronomical observation data,and the target source classification information in vast photometric data has not been accurately measured.To address this,we propose a novel deep learning-based algorithm,YL8C4Net,for the automatic detection and classification of target sources in photometric images.This algorithm combines the YOLOv8 detection network with the Conv4Net classification network.Additionally,we propose a novel magnitude-based labeling method for target source annotation.In the performance evaluation,the YOLOv8 achieves impressive performance with average precision scores of 0.824 for AP@0.5 and 0.795 for AP@0.5:0.95.Meanwhile,the constructed Conv4Net attains an accuracy of 0.8895.Overall,YL8C4Net offers the advantages of fewer parameters,faster processing speed,and higher classification accuracy,making it particularly suitable for large-scale data processing tasks.Furthermore,we employed the YL8C4Net model to conduct target source detection and classification on photometric images from 20 sky regions in SDSS-DR17.As a result,a catalog containing about 9.39 million target source classification results has been preliminarily constructed,thereby providing valuable reference data for astronomical research.

文摘Effective motors are crucial for driving astronomical telescopes,especially for those operating in Antarctica,where the harsh environment and operating conditions,including extreme low temperature,ice/snow accumulation,low power consumption,and unattended operation,introduce challenges to the design and development of motor drives.We present the design of a permanent magnet synchronous motor suitable for this environment,conducting a quantitative analysis on the impacts of cryogenic conditions on lubricant performance,differential thermal contraction of metallic components,and remanent flux density of neodymium iron boron(N52)permanent magnets.We also implement a labyrinth seal structure,combined with silicone sealing rings,to mitigate ice crystal intrusion risks.Finite element analysis and laboratory tests demonstrate a maximum torque output of 25 Nm.This kind of motor is used in the Antarctic 15 cm Near Infrared Telescope at Dome A,Antarctica.Operation data shows a total encoder feedback error of 0.0678"for the telescope control system with 15"s^(−1)tracking speed at−56.79°C.These results comprehensively validate the high reliability and precision of the motor under the extreme conditions of the polar environment.

文摘This paper proposes a subpixel transformation method to correct Keystone and Smile distortions in fiber spectral images from the Fiber Arrayed Solar Optical Telescope.These distortions affect the spatial and spectral positions,degrading resolution and accuracy.To correct Keystone distortion,we use a local summation and peak-finding method to locate central horizontal coordinates,calculate shifting values,and straighten the curves.For Smile distortion,we use quartic polynomial fitting based on absorption lines at different wavelengths.This technique preserves subpixel components,redistributes pixel values,and interpolates non-fiber portions,rectifying the spectra for accurate analysis.The method can also be applied to other astronomical projects like Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope,enhancing the accuracy and reliability of spectral data in various astronomical studies.

文摘Astronomical spectra are vital for deriving stellar properties,yet low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)spectra often obscure key features,complicating accurate analysis.This study presents spec-Diffusion Probabilistic Models(DDPM),a novel deep learning approach based on DDPM,aimed at denoising low SNR spectra to improve stellar parameter estimation.Leveraging the LAMOST DR10 data set,we developed spec-DDPM using a tailored U-Net architecture(spec-Unet)to iteratively predict and remove noise.The model was trained on 28,500 low and high SNR spectral pairs and benchmarked against conventional methods,including Principal Component Analysis,wavelet techniques,and a modified DnCNN model.The spec-DDPM demonstrated superior performance,with reduced Mean Absolute Error,elevated Structural Similarity Index Measure,and enhanced spectral loss metrics.It effectively preserved critical spectral features and corrected continuum distortions.Validation experiments further confirmed its ability to improve stellar parameter estimation with reduced errors.These results underscore spec-DDPM’s potential to elevate spectral data quality,offering applications in restoring defective spectra and refining large-scale astronomical surveys.This work highlights the transformative role of deep learning in astronomical data processing.
