碳酸钙与碳化硅对室温硫化硅橡胶的补强作用

在有关硅橡胶补强的研究中,人们已经对ＳｉＯ２ 等补强性填料对硅橡胶的补强作用进行了深入的研究,但对非补强填料对室温硫化硅橡胶的补强作用则相对涉及较少．作者研究了ＣａＣＯ３ 和ＳｉＣ 两类非补强性填料以及填料的粒径与分布对室温硫化硅橡胶拉伸强度、断裂伸长率和耐温性能等的影响,发现合适粒径的非补强性填料对室温硫化硅橡胶有较好的补强效果,且在填料粒径及分布匹配时有最好的补强效果,选用ＳｉＣ时还可以有效提高室温硫化硅橡胶的热稳定性．     

Chemical Proteomics and Phenotypic Profiling Identifies the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor as a Molecular Target of the Utrophin Modulator Ezutromid

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal muscle‐wasting disease arising from mutations in the dystrophin gene. Upregulation of utrophin to compensate for the missing dystrophin offers a potential therapy independent of patient genotype. The first‐in‐class utrophin modulator ezutromid/SMT C1100 was developed from a phenotypic screen through to a Phase 2 clinical trial. Promising efficacy and evidence of target engagement was observed in DMD patients after 24 weeks of treatment, however trial endpoints were not met after 48 weeks. The objective of this study was to understand the mechanism of action of ezutromid which could explain the lack of sustained efficacy and help development of new generations of utrophin modulators. Using chemical proteomics and phenotypic profiling we show that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a target of ezutromid. Several lines of evidence demonstrate that ezutromid binds AhR with an apparent K_D of 50 nm  and behaves as an AhR antagonist. Furthermore, other reported AhR antagonists also upregulate utrophin, showing that this pathway, which is currently being explored in other clinical applications including oncology and rheumatoid arthritis, could also be exploited in future DMD therapies.

One physical problem with possible mathematical significance

We analyze three-dimensional gauge theory with Chern-Simons action, which arises in the context of high T_c superconductivity. We show that the main effect in this theory is the change of spin and statistics of charged particles. Also, the amplitudes of particle propagation acquire phases dependent on the topology of the knot formed by their trajectories. In the end, we discuss possible generalizations of this theory, and their relations to strings.

Global stability for a class of mass action systems allowing for latency in tuberculosis

A very general compartmental model of the spread of an infectious disease with mass action incidence is given. The global stability of this system is completely determined using Lyapunov functions. The general system exhibits the traditional threshold behaviour. The dimension of the system is arbitrary, allowing, in particular, for detailed modelling of the distribution of latency times for tuberculosis.     

The Groups of Symmetric Genus σ ≤ 8

Let G be a finite group. The symmetric genus σ (G) is the minimum genus of any compact Riemann surface on which G acts faithfully as a group of automorphisms. Here we classify the groups of symmetric genus σ, for all values of σ such that 4 ≤ σ ≤ 8. In addition, we obtain some general results about the partial presentations that groups acting on surfaces must have. We show that a group with even genus and no “large order” elements in its Sylow 2-subgroup has restrictions on its Sylow 2-subgroup. As a consequence, we show that if G is a 2-group with positive symmetric genus, then σ(G) is odd. The software package MAGMA was employed to help with the calculations, and the MAGMA library of small groups was essential to the classification.     

Renormalisation of out-of-equilibrium quantum fields

We consider the initial value problem and its renormalisation in the framework of the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) effective action. We argue that in the case of appropriately chosen self-consistent initial conditions, the counterterms needed to renormalise the system in equilibrium are also sufficient to renormalise its time evolution. In this way we improve on Gaussian initial conditions which have the disadvantage of generically not showing a continuum limit. For a more detailed discussion see [Sz. Borsányi and U. Reinosa, arXiv:0809.0496].     

Effective Action for Noncommutative U（1） Gauge Theory with Higher Dimensional Terms

In this paper we apply the assumption of our recent work in noncommutative scalar models to the noncommutative U（1） gauge theories. This assumption is that the noneommutative effects start to be visible continuously from a scale ANC and that below this scale the theory is a commutative one. Based on this assumption and using background field method and loop calculations, an effective action is derived for noncommutative U（1） gauge theory. It will be shown that the corresponding low energy effective theory is asymptotically free and that under this condition the noncommutative quadratic IR divergences will not appear. The effective theory contains higher dimensional terms, which become more important at high energies. These terms predict an elastic photon-photon scattering due to the noncommutativity of space. The coefficients of these higher dimensional terms also satisfy a positivity constraint indicating that in this theory the related diseases of superluminal signal propagating and bad analytic properties of S-matrix do not exist. In the last section, we will apply our method to the noncommutative extra dimension theories.     

Positively Curved Manifolds with Almost Maximal Symmetry Rank

The symmetry rank of a Riemannian manifold is the rank of the isometry group. We determine precisely which closed simply connected 5-manifolds admit positively curved metrics with (almost maximal) symmetry rank two. We also determine the precise Euler characteristic and the fundamental groups of all closed positively curved n-manifolds with almost maximal symmetry rank [(n–1)/2] (n 6, 7).
