As a result, limited data exist and O. daovantieni remains one of the least studied members of its genus. Based on a re-examination of the type series, analysis of newly collected topotypic specimens, and a review of museum collections, this study provides an updated and comprehensive morphological characterization of O. daovantieni including detailed descriptions of hemipenial morphology, revised diagnostic characters,phylogenetic positioning, and ecological insights.Based on morphological comparisons with congeners, we also define the informal Opisthotropis spenceri group to facilitate future taxonomic work. In addition, this study documents a previously unreported defensive behavior involving tail-poking,observed in the field and thus far unique within the genus Opisthotropis.展开更多

We marginalize the like- lihood functions over h by integrating the probability density 19 ∝ e-x^2/2. By using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo （MCMC） technique, we obtain the best fitting results and give the confidence regions in the b - Ωm0 plane. Then we compare their constraints. Our results show that the H（z） data play a similar role with the SNe Ia data in cosmological study. By presenting the independent and joint constraints, we find that the BAO and CMB data play very important roles in breaking the degeneracy compared with the H（z） and SNe Ia data alone. Combined with the BAO or CMB data, one can remarkably improve the constraints. The SNe Ia data sets constrain Ωm0 much tighter than the H（z） data sets, but the H（z） data sets constrain b much tighter than the SNe Ia data sets. All these results show that the Undulant Universe approaches the ACDM model. We expect more H（z） data to constrain cosmological parameters in the future.展开更多

文摘The early stages of crystallization and occurrence of surface wrinkling were investigated using poly(butadiene)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone)with an ordered lamellar structure.Direct evidence has demonstrated that surface wrinkling precedes nucleation and crystal growth.This study examined the relationship between surface wrinkling,nucleation,and the formation of crystalline supramolecular structures using atomic force microscopy(AFM)and X-ray scattering measurements.Surface wrinkling is attributed to curving induced by accumulated stresses,including residual stress from the sample preparation and thermal stress during cooling.These stresses cause large-scale material flow and corresponding changes in the molecular conformations,potentially reducing the nucleation barrier.This hypothesis is supported by the rapid crystal growth observed following the spread of surface wrinkles.Additionally,the surface curving of the polymer thin film creates local minima of the free energy,facilitating nucleation.The nuclei subsequently grow into crystalline supramolecular structures by incorporating polymer molecules from the melt.This mechanism highlights the role of localized structural inhomogeneity in the early stages of crystallization and provides new insights into structure formation processes.
文摘The magnetic fields and dynamical processes in the solar polar regions play a crucial role in the solar magnetic cycle and in supplying mass and energy to the fast solar wind,ultimately being vital in controlling solar activities and driving space weather.Despite numerous efforts to explore these regions,to date no imaging observations of the Sun's poles have been achieved from vantage points out of the ecliptic plane,leaving their behavior and evolution poorly understood.This observation gap has left three top-level scientific questions unanswered:How does the solar dynamo work and drive the solar magnetic cycle?What drives the fast solar wind?How do space weather processes globally originate from the Sun and propagate throughout the solar system?The Solar Polarorbit Observatory(SPO)mission,a solar polar exploration spacecraft,is proposed to address these three unanswered scientific questions by imaging the Sun's poles from high heliolatitudes.In order to achieve its scientific goals,SPO will carry six remote-sensing and four in-situ instruments to measure the vector magnetic fields and Doppler velocity fields in the photosphere,to observe the Sun in the extreme ultraviolet,X-ray,and radio wavelengths,to image the corona and the heliosphere up to 45 R_(s),and to perform in-situ detection of magnetic fields,and low-and high-energy particles in the solar wind.The SPO mission is capable of providing critical vector magnetic fields and Doppler velocities of the polar regions to advance our understanding of the origin of the solar magnetic cycle,providing unprecedented imaging observations of the solar poles alongside in-situ measurements of charged particles and magnetic fields from high heliolatitudes to unveil the mass and energy supply that drive the fast solar wind,and providing observational constraints for improving our ability to model and predict the three-dimensional(3D)structures and propagation of space weather events.

文摘we present a robust and universal quantum secret sharing protocol with four-qubit decoherence-free （DF） states against collective noise. The transmission＇s safety is ensured by the nonorthogonality of the noiseless states traveling on the quantum channel. Although this scheme uses entangled states for encoding, only single-particle product measurements are required.

文摘We use the redshift Hubble parameter H（z） data derived from relative galaxy ages, distant type Ia supernovae （SNe Ia）, the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation （BAO） peak, and the Cosmic Microwave Background （CMB） shift parameter data, to constrain cosmological parameters in the Undulant Universe. We marginalize the like- lihood functions over h by integrating the probability density 19 ∝ e-x^2/2. By using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo （MCMC） technique, we obtain the best fitting results and give the confidence regions in the b - Ωm0 plane. Then we compare their constraints. Our results show that the H（z） data play a similar role with the SNe Ia data in cosmological study. By presenting the independent and joint constraints, we find that the BAO and CMB data play very important roles in breaking the degeneracy compared with the H（z） and SNe Ia data alone. Combined with the BAO or CMB data, one can remarkably improve the constraints. The SNe Ia data sets constrain Ωm0 much tighter than the H（z） data sets, but the H（z） data sets constrain b much tighter than the SNe Ia data sets. All these results show that the Undulant Universe approaches the ACDM model. We expect more H（z） data to constrain cosmological parameters in the future.

文摘This paper studies a single degree of freedom system under free vibration and controlled by a general semiactive damping.A general integral of squared error is considered as the performance index.A one-time switching damping controller is proposed and optimized.The pontryagin maximum principle is used to prove that no other form of semi-active damping can provide the better performance than the proposed one-time switching damping.
