Effects of edge screens on the absorption of blocks of theatre chairs

This paper reports new measurement results investigating the use of screens around samples of theatre chairs to minimize edge effects when measuring theatre chair absorption in reverberation chambers. The absorption measurements included both full scale and scale model measurements in reverberation chambers and a model recital hall. The use of screens has been proposed to better approximate the sound absorption of the larger blocks of chairs in auditoria. The method of measuring the absorption of blocks of chairs with screens around their edges and located in the corner of a reverberation chamber did not give results indicative of the values obtained for larger areas in auditoria. The addition of screens around samples of chairs did not eliminate the variation of absorption coefficients with perimeter/area ratio. The results of extrapolations from measurements of blocks of screened chairs to infinite samples gave lower absorption coefficients than found for blocks of unscreened chairs. The absorption of chairs in large performance halls can best be predicted using the P/A method to extrapolate from reverberation chamber measurements of smaller samples of unscreened chairs, with a range of P/A values, to the larger samples and lower P/A ratios of blocks of chairs typical of performance spaces.     

The analysis of a novel 3-D autonomous system and circuit implementation

This Letter presents a new three-dimensional autonomous system with four quadratic terms. The system with five equilibrium points has complex chaotic dynamics behaviors. It can generate many different single chaotic attractors and double coexisting chaotic attractors over a large range of parameters. We observe that these chaotic attractors were rarely reported in previous work. The complex dynamical behaviors of the system are further investigated by means of phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents spectrum, Lyapunov dimension, dissipativeness of system, bifurcation diagram and Poincaré map. The physical circuit experimental results of the chaotic attractors show agreement with numerical simulations. More importantly, the analysis of frequency spectrum shows that the novel system has a broad frequency bandwidth, which is very desirable for engineering applications such as secure communications.     

苯硫酚吸附在新型Ag-Au合金纳米粒子上的表面增强拉曼光谱研究

以柠檬酸钠同时还原制备的Ag-Au合金纳米粒子为种子,用盐酸羟胺进一步使其生长得到粒径为40～60 nm的新型Ag-Au合金纳米粒子,采用UV-Vis光谱和TEM对纳米种子和再生长后的纳米粒子分别进行表征。两种粒子的UV-Vis光谱均只观察到一个等离子体共振峰,其频率随金的摩尔分数(x_Au)增加而红移,且TEM图像表明这两种粒子的颜色均一,因此判断这两种粒子均为合金结构。以苯硫酚为探针分子,研究了该新型合金纳米粒子的表面增强拉曼光谱(SERS),结果表明吸附了苯硫酚的合金纳米粒子的紫外最大吸收峰红移,并在近红外区出现聚集体的吸收峰。在632.8 nm波长激发下,由于表面等离子体共振效应Au上的SERS信号最强,而合金纳米粒子上的SERS信号随x_Au增大而增强。     

环圈量子引力简介

大家知道，弦理论（String theory）是企图和谐地统一量子力学和广义相对论这两个已知的然而却互不相容的关于“小”和“大”的理论体系．本文介绍的环圈量子引力（Loop Quantum Gravity）理论（以下简称“L理论”）也是为此目的兴起的另一种理论．     

Generalized beam propagation factor of hard-edged circular apertured diffracted Bessel–Gaussian beams

Based on the truncated second-order moments method on the cylindrical coordinate systems and the incomplete gamma function, an analytical expression of the generalized beam propagation factor (M_G² factor) of hard-edged circular apertured diffracted Bessel–Gaussian beams is derived and illustrated numerically. It is shown that the M_G² factor of hard-edged diffracted BGBs mainly depends on the truncation parameter δ and the beam parameters m and η. The results can be reduced to that for the non-truncated Bessel–Gaussian beams case and that for the truncated fundamental Gaussian beams case under certain conditions, respectively. The power fraction is also discussed analytically and numerically.     

Observation of a charmoniumlike state produced in association with a J/psi in e+e- annihilation at sqrt[s] approximately equal to 10.6 GeV

We report the first observation of a charmoniumlike state recoiling from the J/psi in the inclusive process e+e- -->J/psi+anything at a mass of (3.943+/-0.006+/-0.006) GeV/c{2}. We also observe the decay of this state into D*D[over ] and determine its intrinsic width to be less than 52 MeV/c{2} at the 90% C.L. These results are obtained from a 357 fb{-1} data sample collected with the Belle detector near the Upsilon(4S) resonance, at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.     

Observation of D+(s)K- and evidence for D+(s)pi- final states in neutral B decays

We report the first observation of a B meson decay that is not accessible by a direct spectator process. The channel B(0)-->D(+)(s)K- is found in a sample of 85 x 10(6) BB; events, collected with the Belle detector at KEKB, with a branching fraction B(B(0)-->D(+)(s)K-)=(4.6(+1.2)(-1.1)+/-1.3) x 10(-5). We also obtain evidence for the B0-->D(+)(s)pi(-) decay with branching fraction B(B0-->D(+)(s)pi(-))=(2.4(+1.0)(-0.8)+/-0.7) x 10(-5). This value may be used to extract a model-dependent value of |V(ub)|.
