We report the discovery of a new unidentified extended $\gamma$-ray source in Galactic plane named LHAASO J0341+5258 with pre-trial significance 8.2 standard deviations above 25 TeV. The best fit position is R.A.$=55.34^{\circ}\pm0.11^{\circ}$ and Dec$=52.97^{\circ}\pm0.07^{\circ}$. angular size $0.29^\circ \pm 0.06^\circ_{stat} \pm0.02^\circ_{sys}$. flux TeV about $20\%$ Crab Nebula. Although ...

The relative stability of protein structures determined by either X-ray crystallography or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been investigated by using molecular dynamics simulation techniques. Published structures of 34 proteins containing between 50 and 100 residues have been evaluated. The proteins selected represent a mixture of secondary structure types including all alpha,...

Amorphous Tungsten Oxide (alpha-WO3) film is one of the most studied electrochromic (EC) materials. It can be used as EC layer in EC devices. Electrochromism can be described as reversible change optical properties, by an applied external voltage. Here alpha-WO3 thin films were deposited onto glass and ITO substrates by reactive DC magnetron sputtering for EC application. Growth temperature, ox...

The ability to evaluate the cosmic ray environment at Mars is of interest for future manned exploration. To support exploration, tools must be developed to accurately access the radiation environment in both free space and on planetary surfaces. The primary tool NASA uses to quantify radiation exposure behind shielding materials is the space radiation transport code, HZETRN. In order to build c...

The alpha-1 and alpha-2 isomers of the monovacant Wells-Dawson heteropolyoxoanion [P(2)W(17)O(61)](10-) are complexants of trivalent rare-earth (RE) ions and serve to stabilize otherwise reactive tetravalent lanthanide (Ln) and actinide (An) ions in aqueous solution. Aspects of the bonding of Ln ions with alpha-1-[P(2)W(17)O(61)](10-) and alpha-2-[P(2)W(17)O(61)](10-) were investigated to addre...

alpha-DsbA1 is one of two DsbA homologues encoded by the Gram-negative alpha-proteobacterium Wolbachia pipientis, an endosymbiont that can behave as a reproductive parasite in insects and as a mutualist in medically important filarial nematodes. The alpha-DsbA1 protein is thought to be important for the folding and secretion of Wolbachia proteins involved in the induction of reproductive distor...

The purpose of this study was to develop an alpha-tricalcium phosphate (alpha-TCP) cement which transforms to hydroxyapatite (HAP) in a relatively short period. We used calcium and phosphate solutions as the liquid phase for the alpha-TCP cement. The alpha-TCP powder was first mixed with CaCl2 solution, and then mixed with NaH2PO4 or Na2HPO3 solution for a total powder/liquid ratio of 1.8. The ...
