Lepton-portal dark matter in hidden valley model and the DAMPE recent results

We study the recent e±cosmic ray excess reported by DAMPE in a Hidden Valley Model with lepton-portal dark matter. We find the electron-portal can account for the excess well and satisfy the DM relic density and direct detection bounds, while electron+muon/electron+muon+tau-portal suffers from strong constraints from lepton flavor violating observables, such as μ→3 e. We also discuss possible collider signatures of our model, both at the LHC and a future 100 Te V hadron collider.     

Electron paramagnetic resonance studies on manganite Pr0.5Sr0.5Mn1−x Ga x O3 (x=0 and 0.05)

In this paper, we present the investigations of electron paramagnetic resonance on perovskite manganite Pr_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ and Ga-doped Pr_0.5Sr_0.5Mn_0.95Ga_0.05O₃. The temperature dependent paramagnetic resonance spectra parameters (effective g-factor, peak-to-peak linewidth ΔH _pp and double integrated intensities) have been used to study the paramagnetic spin correlations and spin dynamics. The gradual increase of effective g-factor is attributed to the presence of orbital ordering above T _C. The model fittings of temperature dependent double integrated intensities reveal Arrhenius law is appropriate for describing Pr_0.5Sr_0.5Mn_0.95Ga_0.05O₃ instead of Pr_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ system. As for Pr_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃, the broadening of linewidth with the temperature increase origins from the contribution of small polaron hopping in the PM regime. However, as for Pr_0.5Sr_0.5Mn_0.95Ga_0.05O₃, the broadening of EPR linewidth can be understood with the spin-lattice relaxation mechanism.     

Numerical Simulation of Mixing Characteristics and Energy Consumption in Vane Extruders with Different Structure Parameters

Numerical simulation was performed with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis software POLYFLOW (ANSYS, Inc., USA) to investigate the melt transportation energy consumption and mixing characteristics of vane extruders. By modifying related parameters in the numerical simulation models, the effects of vane arrangement and eccentricity between rotor and stator were studied. The results showed that for different vane arrangements, the vane unit with four vanes distributed uniformly had the lowest energy consumption per unit melt transported in one cycle and the best mixing characteristics. With the increase of eccentricity, the average rotational power transmitted by the vanes to the melt increased, and the rate of increase increased. The same tendency occurred for the maximum shear rate and stretching rate experienced by the particles in the vane extruder. This suggested that the mixing performance of the vane unit increased significantly with the increase of eccentricity.     

Observation of ZnO nanoparticles outside pores of nano Zn4O(C8H4O4)3 metal-organic framework

It was recognized that ZnO can be formed during synthesizing nano Zn₄O(C₈H₄O₄)₃ metal-organic framework (nano MOF-5). Furthermore, it is generally accepted that the ZnO is dispersed inside the pores of MOF-5. However, herein, the measurements of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the crystal particle sizes of ZnO in MOF-5 are in the range of 5-18 nm, which are larger than the pore size of MOF-5 (1.3 nm). This clearly demonstrates that those ZnO nanoparticles are located outside the pores of MOF-5.

温度测量综述——现代计量科学专题之十

1温度与热 温度是国际单位制中七个基本量之一,是人类接触最早,与人类生存关系最为密切,而又难于理解和不易测准的物理量.在科学地定义温度之前,人们把温度的变化与物体所含的热量混为一谈.直到近两个世纪,随着工业和科学技术的发展,逐渐建立起热力学和统计学理论,温度的本质才逐渐被揭示.
