HL-2A装置中性束发射光谱 诊断系统的研制与测试

在HL-2A装置上完成了一套32通道束发射诊断系统(BES)，可对径向r=12~44cm, 极向-7.5~+7.5cm二维空间范围内的长波长()电子密度扰动信息进行测量，其时间分辨率达到0.5ms，空间分辨率1~2cm。系统由内置于真空室的非对称镜头组、传输光纤、高性能探测器模块以及辅助的冷却和真空设备构成。系统的噪声在低频时(f<100kHz)主要由散粒噪声贡献，在较高频率时由散粒噪声和e噪声共同决定。在典型的HL-2A装置放电模式中，对于200kHz以下的扰动，该系统的信噪比(SNR)均大于3。     

Electron Configuration Modulation of Nickel Single Atoms for Elevated Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

The emerging metal single‐atom catalyst has aroused extensive attention in multiple fields, such as clean energy, environmental protection, and biomedicine. Unfortunately, though it has been shown to be highly active, the origins of the activity of the single‐atom sites remain unrevealed to date owing to the lack of deep insight on electronic level. Now, partially oxidized Ni single‐atom sites were constructed in polymeric carbon nitride (CN), which elevates the photocatalytic performance by over 30‐fold. The 3d orbital of the partially oxidized Ni single‐atom sites is filled with unpaired d‐electrons, which are ready to be excited under irradiation. Such an electron configuration results in elevated light response, conductivity, charge separation, and mobility of the photocatalyst concurrently, thus largely augmenting the photocatalytic performance.

Can (H2O) n (n = 1–2) as effective catalysts in the CH2OO + H2S reaction under tropospheric conditions?

The addition reaction of CH₂OO?+?H₂S → HSCH₂OOH without and with catalyst X (X?=?H₂O and (H₂O)₂) has been investigated by CCSD(T)-F12a/VTZ-F12//B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ method and canonical variational transition state theory with small curvature tunneling correction. When H₂O was introduced in the CH₂OO?+?H₂S reaction, it not only acts as a catalyst for producing HSCH₂OOH, but also plays as a reactant to forming HOCH₂OOH. The formation channel of HSCH₂OOH is more important than the formation channel of HOCH₂OOH with its calculated rate constant larger by 11.0–43.2 times within the temperature 280–320?K. Then, (H₂O)₂ catalysed CH₂OO?+?H₂S → HSCH₂OOH reaction has been taken into account with its rate lower 1.9–4.2 times than the reaction of CH₂OO?+?H₂S → HSCH₂OOH with water. Also, CH₂OO?+?H₂S with H₂O cannot compete with the CH₂OO?+?H₂S reaction without water. This is different from CH₂OO?+?(H₂O)₂ reaction, which is about 4 orders of magnitude larger than the rate constant for CH₂OO?+?H₂O reaction. Such discrepancy is possible because C(CH₂OO)···O(H₂O) interaction has been enhanced more obviously by H₂O as compared to that of C(CH₂OO)···O(H₂S) interaction.     

Terahertz wave emission from water lin es

To make further understanding of terahertz(THz)wave generation from liquid water,we study THz wave emission from water lines of different diameters.The water line with a smaller diameter generates a stronger THz electric field for the diameters from 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm.The THz electric field strength and polarity change with the relative position between the incident laser and water line.Moreover,the THz energy has an optimal radiation angle of about 60°.A two-dimensional dipole array model is introduced to illustrate the phenomenon.Our observations contribute to optimizing the scheme of the liquid THz source.

A Statistical Study of the Correlation between Geomagnetic Storms and M ≥ 7.0 Global Earthquakes during 1957–2020

In order to find out whether the geomagnetic storms and large-mega earthquakes are correlated or not, statistical studies based on Superposed Epoch Analysis (SEA), significance analysis, and Z test have been applied to the Dst index data and M ≥ 7.0 global earthquakes during 1957–2020. The results indicate that before M ≥ 7.0 global earthquakes, there are clearly higher probabilities of geomagnetic storms than after them. Geomagnetic storms are more likely to be related with shallow earthquakes rather than deep ones. Further statistical investigations of the results based on cumulative storm hours show consistency with those based on storm days, suggesting that the high probability of geomagnetic storms prior to large-mega earthquakes is significant and robust. Some possible mechanisms such as a reverse piezoelectric effect and/or electroosmotic flow are discussed to explain the statistical correlation. The result might open new perspectives in the complex process of earthquakes and the Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere (LAI) coupling.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Evaluation of the Antibacterial and Antitumor Activity of HalogenatedSalen Copper (II) Complexes derived from Camphoric Acid

Platinum metal complexes are the most common chemotherapeutics currently used in cancer treatment. However, the frequent adverse effects, as well as acquired resistance by tumor cells, urge the development of effective alternatives. In the recent past, copper complexes with Schiff base ligands have emerged as good alternatives, showing interesting results. Accordingly, and in continuation of previous studies in this area, three new camphoric acid-derived halogenated salen ligands and their corresponding Cu (II) complexes were synthesized and their antitumor activity was evaluated in order to determine the influence of the type and number of halogens present (Br, Cl). The in vitro cytotoxic activity was screened against colorectal WiDr and LS1034 and against breast MCF-7 and HCC1806 cancer cell lines. The results proved the halogenated complexes to be very efficient, the tetrachlorinated Cu (II) complex being the most promising, presenting IC₅₀ of 0.63–1.09 μM for the cell lines studied. The complex also shows selectivity to colorectal cancer cells compared to non-tumor colon cells. It is worth highlighting that the tetrachlorinated Cu (II) complex, our most efficient complex, shows a significantly more powerful antitumor effect than the reference drugs currently used in conventional chemotherapy. The halogenated salen and corresponding complexes were also screened for their antimicrobial activity against four bacterial species-Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa-and four fungal species-Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Aspergillus fumigatus and Alternaria alternata. The compounds were found to exhibit moderate to strong antibacterial activity against the bacterial strains studied. NMR studies and theoretical calculations provided some insight into the structure of the ligands and copper complexes. Considering the results presented herein, our work validates the potential use of copper-based chemotherapeutics as alternatives for cancer treatment.
