PTC: Full and Drift Particle Orbit Tracing Code for α Particles in Tokamak Plasmas

Fusion born α particle confinement is one of the most important issues in burning plasmas,such as ITER and CFETR.However,it is extremely complex due to the nonequilibrium characteristics,and multiple temporal and spatial scales coupling with background plasma.A numerical code using particle orbit tracing method(PTC)has been developed to study energetic particle confinement in tokamak plasmas.Both full orbit and drift orbit solvers are implemented to analyze the Larmor radius effects on α particle confinement.The elastic collisions between alpha particles and thermal plasma are calculated by a Monte Carlo method.A triangle mesh in poloidal section is generated for electromagnetic fields expression.Benchmark between PTC and ORBIT has been accomplished for verification.For CFETR burning plasmas,PTC code is used for α particle source and slowing down process calculation in 2D equilibrium.In future work,3D field like toroidal field ripples,Alfven and magnetohydrodynamics instabilities perturbation inducing α particle transport will be analyzed.     

Hepatoprotective Effects of Ixeris chinensis on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Induced by High-Fat Diet in Mice: An Integrated Gut Microbiota and Metabolomic Analysis

Ixeris chinensis (Thunb.) Nakai (IC) is a folk medicinal herb used in Mongolian medical clinics for the treatment of hepatitis and fatty liver diseases even though its pharmacological mechanism has not been well characterized. This study investigated the hepatoprotective mechanism of IC on mice with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by integrating gut microbiota and metabolomic analysis. A high-fat diet (HFD) was used to develop nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, after which the mice were treated with oral IC (0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 g/kg) for 10 weeks. HFD induced NAFLD and the therapeutic effects were characterized by pathological and histological evaluations, and the serum indicators were analyzed by ELISA. The gut microbial and metabolite profiles were studied by 16S rRNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomic analysis, respectively. The results showed that the administration of IC resulted in significant decreases in body weight; liver index; serum biomarkers such as ALT, TG, and LDL-C; and the liver inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. The 16S rRNA sequencing results showed that administration of IC extract altered both the composition and abundance of the gut microbiota. Untargeted metabolomic analysis of liver samples detected a total of 212 metabolites, of which 128 were differentially expressed between the HFD and IC group. IC was found to significantly alter the levels of metabolites such as L-glutamic acid, pyridoxal, ornithine, L-aspartic acid, D-proline, and N4-acetylaminobutanal, which are involved in the regulation of glutamine and glutamate, Vitamin B6 metabolism, and arginine and proline metabolic pathways. Correlation analysis indicated that the effects of the IC extract on metabolites were associated with alterations in the abundance of Akkermansiaceae, Lachnospiraceae, and Muribaculaceae. Our study revealed that IC has a potential hepatoprotective effect in NAFLD and that its function might be linked to improvements in the composition of gut microbiota and their metabolites.

Microwave Pyrolysis and Electrochemical Supercapacitor of S-doped g-C_3N_4 Nanoparticles

In this study, S-doped g-C_3N_4 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by one-step solid-state microwave synthesis. The detailed characterizations through XRD, FT-IR, SEM and XPS were studied. In addition, the electrochemical properties as supercapacitor of the sample were tested by cyclic voltammetry(CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge(GCD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) techniques. The results showed a high specific capacitance of 691 F/g at current density of 4 A/g in 2 M KOH + 0.15 M K_3[Fe(CN)_6] electrolyte. This study shows that the microwave synthesis is a promising way to design carbon-based electrodes for supercapacitor.     

Integral Operators Between Fock Spaces∗

In this paper, the authors study the integral operator Sφf(z) = Z C φ(z, w)f(w)dλα(w) induced by a kernel function φ(z, ·) ∈ F ∞α between Fock spaces. For 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, they prove that Sφ : F 1 α → F p α is bounded if and only if sup a∈C kSφkakp,α < ∞, (?) where ka is the normalized reproducing kernel of F 2 α; and, Sφ : F 1 α → F p α is compact if and only if lim |a|→∞ kSφkakp,α = 0. When 1 < q ≤ ∞, it is also proved that the condition (?) is not sufficient for boundedness of Sφ : F q α → F p α . In the particular case φ(z, w) = eαzw?(z ? w) with ? ∈ F 2 α, for 1 ≤ q < p < ∞, they show that Sφ : F p α → F q α is bounded if and only if ? = 0; for 1 < p ≤ q < ∞, they give sufficient conditions for the boundedness or compactness of the operator Sφ : F p α → F q α.

油品对DMCC甲醛排放的比较研究

为了研究甲醇燃料发动机尾气中甲醛的排放特征,在一台经过改装的组合燃烧发动机上,采用标准测试柴油(TF)和普通市场柴油(MF)进行了实验,比较了燃用不同油料时的甲醛排放特征.实验结果表明;在相同甲醇掺烧比时,两种油料均是在低负荷时甲醛排放最高,在中负荷时最低,在高负荷时甲醛排放居中,三种负荷下MF甲醛排放均比TF高;此外,实验还对比了相同负荷、不同甲醇掺烧比时的甲醛排放,均表现出MF的甲醛排放比TF高,在高负荷下甚至达到2.5倍;实验还表明单纯的依靠氧化催化转化器不能有效降低甲醛排放.     

Domain Adaptation with Data Uncertainty Measure Based on Evidence Theory

Domain adaptation aims to learn a classifier for a target domain task by using related labeled data from the source domain. Because source domain data and target domain task may be mismatched, there is an uncertainty of source domain data with respect to the target domain task. Ignoring the uncertainty may lead to models with unreliable and suboptimal classification results for the target domain task. However, most previous works focus on reducing the gap in data distribution between the source and target domains. They do not consider the uncertainty of source domain data about the target domain task and cannot apply the uncertainty to learn an adaptive classifier. Aimed at this problem, we revisit the domain adaptation from source domain data uncertainty based on evidence theory and thereby devise an adaptive classifier with the uncertainty measure. Based on evidence theory, we first design an evidence net to estimate the uncertainty of source domain data about the target domain task. Second, we design a general loss function with the uncertainty measure for the adaptive classifier and extend the loss function to support vector machine. Finally, numerical experiments on simulation datasets and real-world applications are given to comprehensively demonstrate the effectiveness of the adaptive classifier with the uncertainty measure.
