四面楚歌下的同志再现：李碧华和陈凯歌对《霸王别姬》的改写 = Representations of the besieged “Comrade” : Li Bihua's and Chen Kaige's adaptations of the Peking Opera “Farewell My Concubine”... by 許维贤 Hee, Wai Siam

“…It was at the historical juncture when foreign gunboats shattered the Qing regime’s belief in China as the world’s center that the Peking Opera was picked and named as the quintessential representative of Chinese Culture. …”

GWTC-2.1: Deep extended catalog of compact binary coalescences observed by LIGO and Virgo during the first half of the third observing run

“…We also expand the population of binaries with significantly asymmetric mass ratios reported in GWTC-2 by an additional two events (the mass ratio is less than 0.65 and 0.44 at 90% probability for GW190403_051519 and GW190917_114630 respectively), and find that two of the eight new events have effective inspiral spins χ eff > 0 (at 90% credibility), while no binary is consistent with χ eff < 0 at the same significance. …”

M., Idris, Alias

“…Ternary MoO3/ZnO/GO was synthesized using hydrothermal method and was embedded on the surface of dual layer hollow fiber membrane by dry-wet spinning method by varying the GO loading at 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 wt%. …”

Enlightening of the low-dimensional high-TC superconductivity: bond contraction and electron dual polarization [低维高温超导的启示: 键收缩与电子双重极化] by Sun, Chang Qing

“…Second, atomic undercoordination of the O-Cu chains and the O-Cu planes shortens and stiffens the local O-Cu bond and lengthens and weakens the O:Cup nonbonding interactions associated with further enhancement of the Cup dipoles polarization, this process is the same as the O:H-O bond relaxation and polarization occurred to the skins of water and ice. Last, the electronphonon interaction is realized by the undercoordination-induced bond relaxation and the dual polarization by lone pairs and bond contraction. …”
