First results from KamLAND: evidence for reactor antineutrino disappearance

KamLAND has measured the flux of nu;(e)'s from distant nuclear reactors. We find fewer nu;(e) events than expected from standard assumptions about nu;(e) propagation at the 99.95% C.L. In a 162 ton.yr exposure the ratio of the observed inverse beta-decay events to the expected number without nu;(e) disappearance is 0.611+/-0.085(stat)+/-0.041(syst) for nu;(e) energies >3.4 MeV. In the context of two-flavor neutrino oscillations with CPT invariance, all solutions to the solar neutrino problem except for the "large mixing angle" region are excluded.     

First example of an ice-like water hexamer boat tape structure in a supramolecular organic host

A T6(2) tape of hydrogen bonded water molecules in boat cyclohexane conformation resides in the channel structure of a dibromophloroglucinol (DBPG) host; water escapes at 40-90 degrees C but is readily re-absorbed by the sponge-like apohost.     

渐近正则映射对的不动点

本文在P一致凸Banach空间中证明了浙近正则映射对的若干不动点定理．在Hilbert空间，Lp空间，Hardy空间Hp和Sobolev空间Hp，k中，1＜P＜＋∞，k≥0，也建立了这些映射的若干不动点定理．本文推广了Gornicki[9，10]，Kruppel[11,12]和其他作者的结果。
