X-Ray Modeling of Very Young Early-Type Stars in the Orion Trapezium: Signatures of Magnetically Confined Plasmas and Evolutionary Implications by Schulz, Norbert S., Canizares, Claude R., Huenemoerder, David P., Tibbetts, Kevin

“…The fact that all three stars appear to be magnetic and are near zero age on the main sequence also raises the issue of whether the Orion stars are simply different or whether young massive stars enter the main sequence carrying significant magnetic fields. The ratio log L[subscript X]/L[subscript bol] using the "wind" component of the spectrum is -7 for the Trapezium stars, consistent with the expectation from O stars. …”

The impact of membrane composition on conformation and trafficking of lipidated prion protein (PrP) variants by Hackl, Stefanie

“…To elucidate the mechanism of conversion of PrPC into toxic PrPSc, homogeneous PrP constructs carrying a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor mimic served as tools to directly observe PrP at the cellular membrane, the initial site of prion infection and PrP misfolding. …”

最小安全间距约束下拥挤交通流速度-密度关系模型 = Speed-density relation model of congested traffic flow under minimum safety distance constraint by 邵春福 Shao Chun-Fu, 肖崇紫 Xiao Chong-Zi, 王博彬 Wang Bo-Bin, 孟梦 Meng Meng

“…The relation between the average reaction time of driver and the minimum headway-distance under traffic congestion state was discussed, and the parameter calibration of reaction time for speed-density relation model was carried out. The speed-density relations with different vehicle lengths, blocking parking distances and reaction times were analyzed, the traffic data of US-101 Highway and I-80 Highway in America were fitted by using the proposed speed-density relation model, Greenshields model, Greenberg model, Underwood model, Northwest model and Edie model respectively, and the fitting results and absolute errors were obtained. …”

Fabrication and characterisation of nanostructured Au for improved electrocatalytic performance in ethanol oxidation reaction by Cao, Xun

“…Through cyclic voltammetry (CV) scans of the samples, Au rendered high efficiency in EOR with low energy input requirement. The CV scans were carried out under different physical parameters – such as having different pH values and ethanol concentrations in the electrolyte – to have a thorough understanding of the catalytic nature of Au in EOR. …”

Biogas desaturation and bio-gelation methods for mitigation of sand liquefaction by Wang, Kangda

“…The undrained monotonic and cyclic triaxial tests carried out on the biogas desaturated sand have indicated that 1) the undrained shear strength of loose sand can be doubled when the degree of saturation is reduced from 100% to 86.4% by biogas desaturation; 2) under one-side compressional cyclic load, the number of cycles to failure can be increased by 100 times by slightly reducing the degree of saturation from 100% to 95%; 3) under symmetrical cyclic load, desaturating the loose sand to a degree of saturation of around 90% can increase the liquefaction resistance of sand by 75% which has the similar effect as to densify a fully saturated loose sand to a medium dense state; and 4) the failure state in the undrained cyclic triaxial tests can be identified using the instability line determined from the monotonic triaxial tests at the same degree of saturation. …”
