Asymptotic structure of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory in lower dimensions

Recently,an action principle for the D→4 limit of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity has been proposed.It is a special scalar-tensor theory that belongs to the family of Horndeski gravity.It also has well defined D→3 and D→2 limits.In this work,we examine this theory in three and four dimensions in the Bondi-Sachs framework.In both three and four dimensions,we find that there is no news function associated with the scalar field,which means that there is no scalar propagating degree of freedom in the theory.In four dimensions,the mass-loss formula is not affected by the Gauss-Bonnet term.This is consistent with the fact that there is no scalar radiation.However,the effects of the Gauss-Bonnet term are quite significant in the sense that they arise just one order after the integration constants and also arise in the quadrupole of the gravitational source.     

An empirical criterion for estimatingT 1 error

More than 200 inversion-recovery experiments on¹⁷O in D₂O have been performed in order to make a correlation between the error inT ₁ and the standard deviation in data fitting. The statistical results ofT ₁ show that the error limit is about 6 times as big as the standard deviation. This can be proposed as an empirical rule for estimating the precision inT ₁ measurements.     

Development and Validation of a Computer‐Administered Number Sense Scale for Fifth‐Grade Children in Taiwan

To investigate the structure of number sense and then to assess its uses in fifth‐grade children's number sense development, a computerized number sense scale was developed and evaluated. The findings of the study indicate that the newly developed scale, with four dominant factors identified and reconfirmed, is internally consistent and substantially valid. It can be reliably used as a screening measure for a quick check of students' number sense development via online self‐assessment. Compared with our previous study, both qualitative and quantitative changes were detected in students' number sense development at different grades. The qualitative change in number sense development is manifested in different numbers of factor components produced at different grades. The quantitative change is manifested in different amounts of factor variance explained at different grades. Furthermore, among the four aspects of number sense, Taiwanese students perform best on recognizing the relative number size yet relatively worse on judging the reasonableness of computational results.

Fermi surface, surface states, and surface reconstruction in Sr2RuO4

The electronic structure of Sr2RuO4 is investigated by high angular resolution ARPES at several incident photon energies. We address the controversial issues of the Fermi surface (FS) topology and the van Hove singularity at the M point, showing that a surface state and the replica of the primary FS due to sqrt[2]xsqrt[2] surface reconstruction are responsible for previous conflicting interpretations. The FS thus determined by ARPES is consistent with the de Haas-van Alphen results, and it provides additional information on the detailed shape of the alpha, beta, and gamma sheets.     

Design of diamond-shaped transient thermal cloaks with homogeneous isotropic materials

Transformation thermodynamics as a major extension of transformation optics has recently received considerable attention. In this paper, we present two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) diamond-shaped transient thermal cloaks with non-singular homogeneous material parameters. The absence of singularity in the parameters results from the fact that the linear coordinate transformation is performed by expanding a line segment rather than a point into a region, while the mechanism behind the homogeneity is the homogeneous stretching and compression along orthogonal directions during the transformation. Although the derived parameters remain anisotropic, we further show that this can be circumvented by considering a layered structure composed of only four types of isotropic materials based on the effective medium theory. Numerical simulation results confirm the good performance of the proposed cloaks.     

Interaction among Cadmium Sulfide Nanoparticles, Acridine Orange, and Deoxyribonucleic Acid in Fluorescence Spectra and a Method for Deoxyribonucleic Acid Determination

Some studies on quantum dots (QD) as donors that enhance the fluorescence of a dye as an acceptor through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) have been reported. However, in the present work we discovered that CdS quantum dots sharply quenched the fluorescence of acridine orange (AO). Also, DNA enhanced the fluorescent signals of AO quenched by CdS. The extents of enhancement were in good proportion to the DNA concentrations. Based on this, a sensitive method was employed to determine DNA with both good selectivity and sensitivity. The calibration curve was linear over 60-4,000 ng mL(-1) and the determination limit (3sigma) was 4.39 ng mL(-1).     

Investigation of 515 nm green-light emission for full color emission LaAlO3 phosphor with varied valence Eu

Photoluminescence and lifetime decay properties of varied valence Eu were employed to investigate the luminescence mechanism of green-light emission positioned at ∼515 nm for full color emission LaAlO₃ phosphor co-doped with Eu²⁺ and Eu³⁺. The enhanced ⁵D₂→⁷F₃ transition emission of Eu³⁺ was assigned for this green emission. Energy transfer between Eu²⁺ and ⁵D₂ level of Eu³⁺ was proposed, which results in the enhancement of ⁵D₂→⁷F₃ transition emission. In addition, energy transfer relations between host-Eu and charge transfer state (CTS)-Eu were also discussed associated with the PLE spectra and band schemes.
