The Ajiki-Ando (A-A) splitting of single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNT) originating from the Aharanov-Bohm effect was observed in chiral specific SWNTs by the magneto-absorption measurements conducted at magnetic fields of up to 78 T. The absorption spectra from each chirality showed clear A-A splitting of the E11 optical excitonic transitions. The parameters of both the dark-bright exciton ener...

If aspirational, then such goals may be reasonable; however, it is problematic if health bureaucrats, politicians, and community members believe that achieving 90-90-90 targets by 2020 will necessarily achieve a 90% decline in HIV transmissions by 2030 in the current context in which no HIV cure or effective vaccine ...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is rarely seen in Asian populations. We diagnosed two CF cases. One of them had a novel mutation c.870-1G>C in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. There have been 38 Chinese CF patients reported in literature from 1974 until the present (2016), 25 different mutations were identified. Only one of these mutations (R553X) is in the Caucasian CF...

The Santa Fe Institute’s economics program has nurtured some of the discipline’s most highly innovative forml theorizing and interdisciplinary brainstorming since its inception in the late 1980s. This proceedings volume provides the occasion for a review of ten-year’s progress by researchers associated with the Institute. The initial programmatic proposals of the first volume have indeed ben fl...

The first reported case of congenital Heinz body hemolytic anemia was subsequently shown to be caused by an unstable hemoglobin, Hb Bristol [p67(E11) Val-Asp]. This has become one of the classic models of an unstable hemoglobin, the hydrophilic aspartate disrupting the hydrophobic heme pocket. We have restudied this original case, who remains clinically well after nearly 50 years of severe hemo...

Carbon nanotubes show vast potential to be used as building blocks for photodetection applications. However, measurements of fundamental optical properties, such as the absorption coefficient and the dielectric constant, have not been accurately performed on a single pristine carbon nanotube. Here we show polarization-dependent photocurrent spectroscopy, performed on a p-n junction in a single ...

We give a reformulation of non-linear Einstein gravity, which contains the dual graviton together with the ordinary metric and a shift gauge field. The metric does not enter through a ‘kinetic’ Einstein-Hilbert term, but via topological couplings, and so the theory does not lead to a doubling of degrees of freedom. The field equations take the form of first-order duality relations. We analyze t...
